LEISURE&CHINESEen: The 2016 Summer Camp lodging will be at the HQ of our NGO

Summer 2016 Chinese and Mountain Biking Camp

- Lodging, food and classes at the headquarters of the Leisure&Chinese NGO -

Because last year not all the participants were housed at the NGO headquarters, now we will have ready more rooms (we will offer 3 rooms) and we intend to also set up a tent in the yard or garden, for those who want to have or repeat such an experience. :-)

The beds are double ones, they fit 2 adults and 2 children. We will also have available television, although in our camp there won't be much time for watching tv: Chinese classes in the morning, resting for one hour at noon, and then...to the hills, to the river, to the archaeological sites we will be setting up, to the monuments, etc; or...from morning till evening trips around the Buzau county, having the Chinese classes when we stop for rest.

We also have an Internet connection, but we thought you were tired of the Internet and that is why you prefer to join us for walks to the woods! :-)

At the moment we only have 2 bicycles for adults, with room in the back for children, but they are not mountain bikes. If you have mountain bikes, we repeat, bring them! We will get funds to buy some and have them offered for free to tourists and students. Until then, bring your own bikes... :-)

In June we will post the final pictures, with images from the headquarters. Until then, here are some pictures from last year. :-)

Lodging

Details about the lodging and housing conditions, information from the owner:

The owner, Mrs. Lili :-)

"Welcome to the blog of the Chinese Camp! I welcome you to a 92 years old house, with a room which at one point served as the official mayor's office of the Vadu Soresti commune. It is possible that you may get to sleep in that room when you live with us during your stay in our village! :-) Last year Ioana, Ana, mom and grandma stayed there. :-)

The house belonged to my parents which were teachers in the Vadu Soresti school. There are no ghosts in the house, there is no paranormal activity, but you can take a stroll through the past, having us tell you legends of the village, past stories and events which took place in time.

Until the Chinese Camp team will collect the necessary funds to renovate the Vadu Soresti school in order to have their classes there, the Chinese lessons will be held at my house. "

Ioana (to the left) and Ana (to the right): the entire world is theirs :-)

The room next to the one shown above is the one with a view to the entrance gate and towards to the flower garden. In June we will post pictures with the changes we will be making. Ana and Ioana have tested for you the bed by jumping almost to the ceiling and they were content! :-)

Let us call it "the room with a view to the gate"...
