For the past four summers, since June 2011 I have spent the sunny months between May and September living and working in a place I like to call my second home. That place is Camp Sloane YMCA in CT, USA. Choosing to work at a summer camp all those years ago was the best decision … More 10 Reasons Why Working At Summer Camp Is The Best Job In The World!
I’m sure you can imagine that life spent at summer camp is always pretty hectic, hence why it’s taken me until right now to actually sit down and write about things that have been going on. Summer has come and gone, kids arrived and left, staff came, they worked hard, played hard and went off … More Life Goes On…And On… And On…
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
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
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
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
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
It’s been pretty hectic since returning to Sydney after our awesome week away in Byron Bay and the Gold Coast – we’ve spent most of our time manically searching for our farm work and, once we’d found the place we will be spending the next 3 months (it’s gonna be freaking awesome…more on this to … More Photo Of The Week: Let’s Go To The Beach, Beach
This week summer has finally begun in Sydney! Tuesday was a glorious sunny day, so we headed off to the Botanical Gardens for a picnic of sorts. When I say picnic I mean we had a picnic blanket, drinks, and no food, so I’m not quite sure if that actually counts as a picnic, but … More Photo Of The Week: A Perfect Picnic
This week’s been a bit of a disappointing one, but only due to the weather. It has rained and stormed for the best (or worst) part of 7 days, turning Sydney into a wet, grey and drab city to live in. It’s almost been like being back in London at this time of year. And … More Photo of The Week: Give Way To Blue Skies
