Greece : Camping with families




Artwork using natural materials






Children prepared food for everyone..



In the beginning of September, the Greek team held the next outdoor activity with families. This consisted of outdoor survival in a totally natural mountain setting. The site is called “Arkoudorema”, which means “bear’s stream”. We carried food and equipment for a weekend, set tents, cooked our food, bathed and washed in the river and played games and sports for all families. In some games there were two teams – one with adults and one with children – competing against each other. In some others they had to cooperate. We created artwork with natural material, we managed to orient ourselves inside a maze, we searched for rare natural objects and identified shapes and textures in nature and then we cooked our food, collected wood to keep warm. We ever baked bread on charcoal!! The next day we collected our things, tidied the place completely and returned, only stopping for a swim in the waterfall.
