France is the number one tourist destination in the world. While our counselors live and work on-location at camp, they generally use their time before or after their employment to discover France - its traditions, cuisine, landscapes, language and people. Our teams can be quite multi-cultural and friendships are easily made in a camp setting. Working with children is a rewarding experience and also, a lot of fun!

NB: We are unable to offer financial assistance for plane or train tickets. However, we will provide as much information as possible to assist counselors with their travel arrangements to France.

NB: We only hire candidates who enter France as a legal tourist, or are EU citizens.
