A Facebook comment from a community member, Off The Beaten Track Oz, perfectly encapsulates the experience:
“It was an absolutely epic session we had with Greg, alongside the ever-so-wise Miriam and Chris from Aussie Destinations Unknown. I mean, seriously, we learned sooo much that my brain felt like a blender!! Huge shoutout to Campedia for putting this on. We can’t describe how much fun we had over the weekend. It was like a wild party mixed with a TED Talk on steroids. We laughed, we learned, and we left with our brains buzzing like caffeinated bees. We’re already counting down the days until the next session. Greg, one question: can we maybe make it a beachside extravaganza? So thanks again, Campedia, for making our brains happy and the weekend unforgettable. We can’t wait to see what you have in store for the next one!!”
Fun and Games for All Ages
In addition to the educational sessions, the campout was packed with fun activities for both kids and adults.
