I’ve organized everything without an agency! My camp had their own sponsor called CampGroup and they cover everything except flights without an additional fee! So you’ll keep your entire salary and don’t have to pay anything extra. I know they also have different camps registered with them so I’d definitely suggest them!!

Been loving your Camp America videos, getting me so excited for my first time this summer!! ☀️🇺🇸 Would love to see a video about your journey to camp so from setting off to arriving at camp - what are your tips for long plane journeys? What's it like meeting the other counsellors for the first time? Etc☺☺

Love your videos, so helpful and getting me so excited for camp. I'm hoping to go in summer 2023 but it's unlikely I will ever get the chance to go back for another summer again after that just because of my future plans, but I already know I'm going to love it and want to go back! Just wondering what it is you do or if you were in uni or not and basically how you've been able to go multiple times? x
@victoriawhitehouse7042 жыл бұрын
Yay I’m so glad they’ve helped you out! It is hard to work out how you’d be able to go back for multiple summers around work and other commitments. I’m quite lucky that I’m able to take time off in the summer from my job, I’m a gymnastics coach full time and can work round the school holidays. My work is obviously much quieter throughout the summer with kids on holiday etc so that’s how I can take time off each year x

Hey, if applying through Bunac, how do you specify which camp you’d like? I’m looking at going for Summer 2023 but I’m scared I’d get put on a camp that wouldn’t suit me
@victoriawhitehouse7042 жыл бұрын
Personally I’d reach out to camps direct, say if you liked the look of my camp you could send an application straight to them and it gives you more of a chance of going to a camp you really want to go to x

@@victoriawhitehouse704 Thank you, is this still done through Bunac or would I just go straight on to the camps website? I just want to make sure that I get all the things included with the price such as the J-1 Visa and Medical cover etc as I would if I was to apply through Bunac, sorry for all the questions
@maddie71707 ай бұрын
Even though Bunac seems to have the lowest costs, once flights are added it can be an additional £400 and for someone looking to do it cheaply as a student is it worth using one of the different agencies you suggested that includes flights as the ones in this video all lie around a similar price
@victoriawhitehouse7047 ай бұрын
Honestly no, not in my option, bear in mind that if you opt for a flight package with agencies you have additional money taken off your salary and your initial package with them costs more. For example a friend of mine used an agency with a flight package, paid much more initially for her fees and then only got paid $800 for the summer! I personally don’t think it works out cheaper doing it that way!

@@victoriawhitehouse704 Hi again, still considering doing camp america, but wondering because when I try find flights to an example spot in america, the flights can be as much as £1000 as a minimum for what I've been finding on skyscanner, does this mean Id still want to stick with BUNAC or go with a different agency due to such high travel prices? And is there a way/technique to get cheaper flights?
