    Wow this video made me feel interested in being part of the staff of a Summer camp 🏕 in Canada 🇨🇦
    Could you please make a video explain the process that you went through in order to go there?

    Oh wow, camp looks like so much fun!!! 🥰 I'm hoping to go to Canada next year, after I graduate 😌 Was your summer camp organised by Camp Canada? And what other activities/groups were there besides lit?
    I'm really looking forward to your next video and to learning more about camp! I honestly can't wait to go!! 😍

    Hi!! I would love to do this but as I’m from the UK I was just wondering if you ever felt homesick? Especially as it seems quite demanding being with the kids constantly. Thanks, great video! ❤️

      Hi Tasha, I am from the Netherlands so I was away from my home for 3 months. I am an extravert person and I get energy out of meeting new people and talking with people. If you know you're an introverted person, it can be hard from time to time to work at camp. You live with 3 other people in tents and you are never alone (only if you're on the toilet or showering). I love that about camp, but for others it can be draining. And with the kids.. I had moments in the day that I went back to my tent to just have some time with my collegues. I could do that because we had a team in LIT with 15 people, so collegues would be with the kids than. And personally I don't suffer with homesickness, so I didn't have any issues with that. Besides, I didn't see anyone with homesickness at camp, because it's way to fun to miss home :)
      I hope I helped you!

    Hey, this was such a great video! Coming from Europe, did you end up earning more money than you spent, or did the whole experience end up costing more than what you earned?

    • @debbyvergoossen7610
      @debbyvergoossen7610  3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Hey Fiona! I ended up with earning money. I had to spend most on my flight and the organisation I went with (CCUSA). What I earned is not a lot, but at the end; the memories you’ve made is worth so much more😍

    sounds amazing... I'm from the. UK and would love to do it. next summer but as im. the youngest in my year, I will only be 17 when the camps start in June, do you think. I will still be able. to. do it if I turn. 18. at the start of July?

    • @debbyvergoossen7610
      @debbyvergoossen7610  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi there Jayla! I hope covid will allow us to go ;(! Anyways, as a 17 year old you will need to apply as an cit (counsellor in training). You are the same as a counsellor, the only difference is that you can not be alone with the campers, there always has to be another counsellor around. But this is at my camp! It could be different at other camps though

    Hoi ik zag je bericht op funx. Ik heb ook psoriaris. Ook heel heftig gehad. Maar wordt nu geholpen in Erasmus MC door dr Thio. En mijn psoriaris is veeeeeeeelll minder. Ik gebruik een medicijn dat ik om de 3 maanden zelf moet injecteren. Super effectief.
    Probeer een afspraak te maken met deze dokter

    Hi Debby, vraagje wat is de naam van het kamp zelf? Ik ben al in Canada met een werkvisum dus ik heb de hulp van een website zoals ccusa niet nodig, ik zou graag zelf contact met ze opnemen:)

    Hey great video!! what advice if any, do you have in terms of filling out an application to really stand out and get chosen?

    • @debbyvergoossen7610
      @debbyvergoossen7610  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you so much! I went with an organization called ccusa. They help you to prep everything and stand out. Plus, if you apply at an organization like that you are garuanteed to get a spot at a camp somewhere around canada or the usa!

    Did you go on any adventures outside of camp like climb mountains? Money wise could u afford to go to other parts of the country just based on the cash they give you?

    Hiya, I am in the process of applying for a summer camp this summer and wondered if you went travelling around Canada after? I am really undecided between working at a camp in America or Canada! Thanks :)

    • @debbyvergoossen7610
      @debbyvergoossen7610  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I didn't go traveling after since I didn't have a lot of time left because I had get back to college in the Netherlands. I just went to some friends in Toronto and went home. How was your summer? :D

    Hello what was the name of the camp I am from Costa Rica and I would love to work in a summer camp in Alberta but I don’t know where can I apply for that, and one more question can counselors drink alcohol on free time? Or it’s prohibited?

    • @debbyvergoossen7610
      @debbyvergoossen7610  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Karina! Sorry for the late reply. We could drink alcohol during our free time but we were not allowed to take any alcohol on site. So there was a reception where you can store all your liquor and take it with you when you go off site. Same for smoking. We had to get in a car to have a cigarette off site. I applied with ccusa! I would love to go to Costa Rica so maybe we can swap places ;)
