The Party in Surfivor Camp

Every week there can be expected a BBQ in Surfivor Camp: some nice hot chicken is prepared and for the vegetarians there is also a meal. Yesterday was one of those days, but this time there was a party afterwards. After a whole day of preparations every surfivor was invited in our Camp House. The house is really nice and there belongs a big garden to it, where the party was given. Everything was taken care of: there was light, a barbecue, a fridge with drinks, etcetera. We arranged a bar where (strawberry and lime) caipirinhas were made by the Italian surf coach assistant Luca and there was made a big bowl of SangrĂ­a. As soon as the music was arranged, the party could begin!



All the surfivors came together at about 9 p.m. and so the chicken was put down on the barbecue. I was one of the persons who helped in the kitchen and when we were preparing the chicken I put too much hot chilli on the chicken, what meant that the chicken was very spicy. Luckily most people liked it, but for others it was too hot. It has become a tradition in Surfivor Camp to put banana’s and chocolate on the barbecue as dessert. It is certainly the best banana you can imagine… I won’t tell you the secret, just get here and experience it yourself!

After the barbecue it was time to try out the caipirinhas. De-li-ci-ous! Everthing was so well arranged, the problem was that everyone was tired from surfing and it was quite cold outside. So in the end we didn’t have a big exciting garden party, but rather a cosy gathering of surfivors in the living room of the camp house. With some light and music it was a successful party after all.

Afterwards there had to be cleaned so that this morning everything could be brought back to the camp. It is possible, when staying in Surfivor Camp, to stay in a tent or caravan on the camp. But if you don’t like to be so close to nature or you rather prefer some luxury, there is possibility to stay in the camp house. There are two dormitories and space for 8 persons. There is kitchen with an oven and a fridge, a big bathroom, a terrace and a garden. The house is really nice when you need time for yourself and don’t want people around you all the time. All the accommodation and courses have to be reserved in advance, so be quick and go to http://www.surfivorcamp.com/new/booking.html for more information and to book your trip!
