The camp aims to put the children in contact with people with international perspectives and situations that facilitate English communication.

For the first three nights of the stay, the children will be staying in a hotel, but from the 9th - 12th of August, 2017 they will be staying with a host family. Families of two people, where one member is an international English-speaker (does not need to be from a native English-speaking country) are eligible to host one or more children.
