Photo Of The Week: I Love My Friends

July 14, 2014

  This week at camp has, of course, been another busy one, so it was pretty awesome this past Saturday when almost all of the staff were off from work due to it being an intersession (the end of a session with only a handful of kids staying over for the next session). We were … More Photo Of The Week: I Love My Friends

Life & All Things Camp

July 8, 2014

Things have been pretty hectic at camp (so what’s new?!) hence why there haven’t been many massively insightful or particularly thoughtful posts recently. I just haven’t had the time to sit down and gather together all the things I want to say. I’m almost halfway through my summer at camp already and I can’t quite … More Life & All Things Camp

Photo Of The Week: The Storm Approaches

July 6, 2014

This week at camp we’ve been pretty busy, as per usual, with all the campy things we do (check out my post about the week over on my blog for CCUSA Australia), but the biggest drama that happened this week was entirely to do with the weather. On Wednesday and Thursday nights we had two … More Photo Of The Week: The Storm Approaches

Photo Of The Week: Supervisors Say What?!

June 15, 2014

This week’s photo of the week really represents life at camp at the moment. This past week was a week for specialty training – of the lifeguards, for the ropes course elements and for the supervisory staff. It’s was a great week to all get together, learn some new stuff (and be reminded of some … More Photo Of The Week: Supervisors Say What?!

Photo Of The Week: Out On The Lake

June 8, 2014

These past few weeks back at camp have been pretty glorious (yes, I’m aware I didn’t post a photo of the week last Sunday…the days just seems to all merge into one once I’m here) – we’ve been working hard, playing hard and generally having a pretty great time. The evenings during the Spring season … More Photo Of The Week: Out On The Lake

Hello Sloane & Hello To The Summer

June 1, 2014

Sometimes it seems as though my life is split into different sections, separated by time and often quite great distances. Over the last 3 years I’ve found myself doing different things and being in different places in monthly increments. A year no longer really means anything to me anymore, as it’s more about all the … More Hello Sloane & Hello To The Summer

Roo Around The World’s Travel Year: A Review Of 2013

January 15, 2014

Happy New Year guys! I hope you all had a great 2013 and excellent celebrations to bring in 2014?! So we’re about 2 weeks into the new year, but before I chat about what I’ve been up to so far in 2014, lets go back a bit. And 2013 sure was a busy one for … More Roo Around The World’s Travel Year: A Review Of 2013

From London to Australia, A Journey

October 9, 2013

It’s been weeks, months and years of planning, hoping, wishing and dreaming, but I finally did it. I finally boarded that plane and moved to Australia! And what a crazy journey it’s been. This all began way back in December 2011 when, pretty much just days after arriving in this gloriously sunny country, I’d decided … More From London to Australia, A Journey

Another Epic Lip Dub Video From Sloane

September 13, 2013

So I know you’ve all seen the last video from Sloane that I posted (the One Direction Lip Dub), but that was just a taster of what we get up to at camp. Throughout the entire summer I’ve been going around camp and filming every activity and section (the different living areas for each age … More Another Epic Lip Dub Video From Sloane

Photo Of The Week: It’s A Fall Camp Holiday

September 1, 2013

These last few weeks we’ve been crazy busy here at camp, with plenty of groups and programming during the start of our Fall Camp season. This week though, we got a bit of a break and went on an awesome day off with the Fall Camp Holiday crew (myself, Adam, Tash, Eimear & Greg). We … More Photo Of The Week: It’s A Fall Camp Holiday
