Do you want to win the game of life?
We offer you a journey into yourself with other peers. One thing is to explore yourself alone and the other is to do it together in a fun and adventurous way!
What will we do?
DAY 1
We know that the first day is usually the scary one. Thus, we will give you a space to create bonds with the group, get to know each other and improve your communication skills. Therefore, on the arrival day, we will focus on the activities which will boost your confidence and will give you a chance to introduce and express yourself to completely unknown people. To start anything in your life you need good communication skills, and people around you who support you in this journey. We promise to provide the space for that!
DAY 2
Before the start of this magical journey into yourself, we will ponder on the goals of self-learning. You will have a chance to dig deeper to understand what you want to achieve during this camp and in your life. Inclusive non-formal education methods will give you an opportunity to work together with your peers, support each other and just be yourself. You will have a chance to experience the effective ways to gain personal learnings while experiencing as a one strong team together.
DAY 3
The extraordinary journey will start with a simple question: who am I? This will be done through outdoor activities combined with a coaching approach- yes, we will bring you to the forests for the remarkable journey of inner self! Will it be challenging? Oh yes, we seek to bring you out of your comfort zone and explore woods and your thoughts! Throughout this amazing hike, outdoor education activities will help to reflect on yourself and will provide you an opportunity to gain the answer on “who am I”?
DAY 4
On this day, you’ll travel the road to explore your destination. The activities will help you visualize the obstacles you face between you and your destination and will provide you with practical skills to overcome them. Also, it’s often motivating to periodically stop and acknowledge how far you’ve come. Take time to celebrate as you go. When we know what we want, we are challenged to take power over our lives. We no longer engage in a spiral of negative thinking that points out all the things that are wrong with the world around us, or all the reasons we can’t have what we want. Instead, we are accepting ourselves as a powerful player in our own destiny. Therefore, there will be interesting and highly valuable activities to learn to harness our personal power. This is essential to both finding and becoming ourselves.
DAY 5
The day when we will wrap-up everything: there will be learning about how to animate the moment with a powerful, celebratory action that fires up positive energy, and enjoy the goodness that you have in your life. To learn how to keep the wisdom, confidence, self-esteem, and way for the new life you explored to be part of you forever. You will make concrete steps and send a message to yourself in the future. Yes, we have a time machine here!

We noticed that there are plenty of youth camps in Lithuanian only which is why we decided to use English as means to connect different youth living in Lithuania and abroad. All nationalities, ethnic groups, minorities and local Lithuanian youth are welcome to learn, grow and have fun together!

Testimonials
“This program, with its people and ideals, helped me developing critical thinking and recognizing the world in a new way, thinking about new things, to finally be the change that our society and our world need.”
“Everyone enters a project with a different goal. For me, projects as such are a success if I get to know one new thing about myself. It might seem like a very vague goal, but I think it is important to expect the unexpected.”
“I saw empathy not only as an opportunity to be able to see things from other people’s perspective, but also an opportunity to see myself from distance, to be happy that I’m alive and can be part of this amazing community.”
“The whole project was like a rollercoaster ride: one moment it seemed like I understood everything; then I felt lost and exhausted from all the information that I wanted to absorb. I got so much: learning about emotions, myself and people.”
“I learnt how to know more about myself. After the project I see a new person when I look ‘in the mirror’. I was so emotional during night hiking, and it made me understand how refugees feel when they leave their homes, that this is happening almost every day.”
“I didn’t only meet new friends and colleagues, but I also understood the importance of being an active citizen. I had the great opportunity to work and create some activities with an amazing Lithuanian team, who I consider not only as team members but as true friends too.”
