There are a mix of kids we have on camp, ages and nationalities. The kids range from 8-17 and we have Russians, Romanians, Georgians (?), Polish, Turks and of course, Italians.
We've had two groups of Italians and a few individuals leave now and we still have two other groups of Italians, I think anyway ha. But I have found that all of these groups (bar the odd one) have all been really lovely, and are really open to people. Maybe we've just been lucky or maybe it is a national thing. The Italians we have had, have been very warm and ready to be open and be fun and crazy, and sometimes make a fool of themselves and laugh because that's who they are. There are other points linked to this that I want to talk about the teachers and teaching, but that is going to be a post for another day as I have a fair few words I want to spurt out.
So, if the right guy in England doesn't come along soon, Italy, here I come. Maybe us Brits should take a leaf out of the Italians book and start being nice for a change.
