Camp in Campo

July 14, 2007 - Campo, Spain

I know it has been awhile since I have updated, so I figure I better write at least a little bit!

I have been busy for the last 3 weeks teaching English and Canadian culture. From the 1st to the 14th of July I was staying in a youth hostel in the tiny town of Campo in the Pyrenees mountains. I was there with 2 other Canadian monitors, 3 Spanish monitors, 3 Scottish ESL teachers and a Spanish camp director. The 6 monitors were in charge of planning daytime activities for the kids (aged 8-14). We also did an evening game for the kids every night.

The area was very beautiful, it was this little town in a valley surrounded by mountains. The town was nice too, lots of old building and the people were very typical of a small town they all knew each other and seemed to just 'hang out' in the square and the bar.

We did some exciting activities too like rafting, 2 hikes (the kids HATED this but the leaders loved it), kayaking, archery and rock climbing. The 2 weeks went by very fast and I was very tired at the end (most days we worked 18 hours or so)

I will update about the places I visited before camp soon when I get more time on the one shared computer we have here to use!
