15 August - 9 September 2017 My days at Kandersteg will come to an end, very soon. Of course, the schedule for most days stays the same as last time, but I also had some new adventures. Because Lisa will leave soon, we had a very nice dinner (taco's) with the whole campsite team at her house. We had a lot of fun! On Wednesday I was off and Kristy and I went to the High Ropes Parcours in Interlaken with the train. After the instructions we did the grasshopper,...

14 July - 14 August 2017 This time I will write about a lot more days, because most days in campsite are starting to be the same and it wouldn't be interesting to read it over and over again. A normal day starts with a thought for the day (TFTD), where we get some information about the day or something later on. Then the campsite staff that work that day gather outside the workshop, take some towels and walk together to the campsite office, where we get a briefi...

7 - 13 July 2017 Life in Kandersteg continous and I had some very interesting days. On Friday I was on duty, so that means Lisa, Wellem, Nathan (SE) and I are available for the guests until 22:30, after the reception is closed.

A little while later the normal w...

25 June - 6 July 2017 The real work on the campsite starts and I had nice trip to Interlaken and the Thunersee. Sunday was the first real workingday and in TFTD, Anna (SE) and I presented the staffboard for the summer of 2017. Everybody liked it! A little while later we had a small training about checking in at the campsite (in the pouring rain) and we handcleaned the OTB (Old Toilet Block), followed by our first weekly meeting with a lot of information. And I...

17 - 24 June 2017 The training is still going on, but the end is near. I really like this place and the people. On Saturday we had more training sessions and the most interesting one was the one about checking guests in and out. We also had a session about Child Safety from a native English speaker. Normally I have no problem to understand English speaking people, but this time he was going very fast, so I think not everybody understood everything. Luckily I ha...
