Thea om friluftsturen

The outdoor trips are some of the things I really appreciate about my job: being outside and living a simple and primitive life, where you get to unwind, turn of your cell phone/computer and just be present. The common trip is usually a great experience both for the experienced and the unexperiences student. As a teacher it is always exciting to see how the groups will help each other through the challenges of the trip and create memorable moments together - both in sunny and rainy weather.

Jeanette om friluftsturen

What I love about this trip is that you really get to know each other - being together from morning to evening three days in a row, in tailwind or headwind, from dawn to sunset and not least around the campfire in the evening.

Alberte om friluftstur

"Sensommer og den særlige stemning det bringer med sig. Bål, telte og aftensmaden serveret mens man sidder i græsset. Det er lunt og varmt om dagen. Natten bringer mørke og kulde, så der samles man om bålet eller ligger sig et sted for at se på stjerner. Man lærte hinanden at kende og man lærte sig selv at kende. Og ikke mindst fandt man lidt mere ud af ens rolle blandt de mennesker man var havnet sammen med. Jeg oplevede at de nye omgivelser og aktiviteter havde helt forskellig påvirkning på os elever og selvom der var et smil på læben fra alle, var der også situationer som krævede at alle holdt humøret højt i samlet flok. På friluftsturen tog vi et stort skridt på vejen mod at opbygget det sociale fællesskab man får på VIH og som alle mærkede som fuldstændig unikt og enesstående i slutningen af opholdet."
