Work hard play hard. Make the most of living near a national park and tourist town. But know the safety protocols and don't do anything too risky.

lead nanny

May 2018 • Estes Park, CO

What I liked

I liked that I was in Colorado doing something that I love, located literally IN the mountains!! I met friends from all over the world that I know I’ll be friends with forever.

What I wish was different

I’m not even sure, I’m so in love with this job and have recruited several others!

Advice

It’s a camp job. Camp people and camp experiences are very “go with the flow” and “open minded” we have a completely different work ethic, It typically goes above and beyond. You have to be willing to do your job, and other jobs that may not have originally been in your title. They know how to take care of you

Sports Counselor

June - August 2018 • Estes Park, CO

What I liked

I loved the mountains and working with middle school girls! I made friends, learned so much, and felt very challenged in this new environment.

What I wish was different

I wish I would have been a hiking counselor rather than a sports counselor. I also wish I would have gone with a close friend from home.

Advice

Develop strong emotional regulation techniques.
