Unexpected summer

This was the most unexpected yet most fun summer I have ever had. Aside from earning, you'll meet different people and visit different places in Italy you haven't imagined yourself being into.

The orientation was fun yet overwhelming but it is all you need to be ready in camps. (Take notes and sing the songs when taught)

The camps are very different from each other. So being flexible is a must. So far I didn't have any bad experiences. The camp directors and helpers were really ready to help and support whatever you need in the camp. One tip, always smile, carry on the challenges and always find a way. All camps will always have a problem.

My host families were the best! They showed me different places of Italy, I had never imagined existed. They fed me lots of food that I gained 6 kilos! I was so pampered, everything I needed was given. So even after a long, tiring camp, at least you'll go back to a plave you can call home and regain the energy you lost without thinking what to cook (except if you'll stay in a bed and bfast/hotels etc.).

Families usually invite you to a trip or lunch outside every Saturday and Sunday, which I see is a plus. You'll get to see Italy's gem, and get yourself a personal tour guide. So another tip, store lots of energy.

My experience let me live life to the fullest. I was able to forget my uni/work life set up and truly enjoyed every single moment in all fun way possible. I wasn't able to imagine myself being in the places I have been to, see the high, green mountains, drink fresh and cold water, swim in a lake, drink unlimited wine and beer, have long, breathtaking rides, meet lovely people, experience cultural and traditional celebrations, and be in remote places with no internet connection, just in contact with nature.

All in all this is the best and most authentic Italian journey I will miss.

Spontaneous, unforgettable and one of a kind. I will surely do it again.
