  • A short glimpse into the best Summer of my life :) Thank you CCUSA for this amazing experience, thank you Wah-Nee for giving me a new family and home. Watch in HD!
    I recently spent 2 months working as a counsellor at an American summer camp in Connecticut. This adventure far surpassed all of my expectations set by binge watching the Parent Trap and It Takes Two since birth. If you are considering applying for a job at a camp, I cannot recommend it enough.
    I've been promising since returning home that I'll make a Q&A answering any questions you guys have, because there have been a lot (which makes me very happy). If there's anything you want to know about being a camp counsellor, my experience and stories, my tips or anything else, leave a comment below and i'll answer it in the next video :)

    omgg hearing that part where you guys were singing/jamming with a guitar, I honestly felt that it was going to be so hard to say goodbye to each other after the camp, like you guys had so many wonderful memories together T-T

    Such a beautiful video, it made me so happy, I am hoping to work on a summer camp next summer. What was it like being vegan at camp and do you have any tips? Did you travel after camp and if so where did you like the most? I would love to explore more of America but really don't know where to start! So happy you enjoyed your time at camp :)

    The idea of doing something like this has been suggested to me recently and I've been down lately as I don't know what to do after college, but this video really sold it to me, I'd love to be able to travel and do something so rewarding at the same time!
