With Memorial Day and summer right around the corner, you’re bound to feel a serious case of wanderlust coming on. Whether you want to travel the world or just squeeze in a weekend getaway to your nearest National Park, camping is always the answer. Whatever you’ve got in mind, we’ve rounded up a selection of the world’s most beautiful camping spots to get you started.
Yosemite National Park, California
Ninety-five percent of Yosemite National Park is set apart for wilderness, which means no cars, no buildings, and no electricity. Sleep under the stars and hike up to Glacier Point for a view of Yosemite Valley, Half Dome, and Yosemite Falls. Make sure you store your food properly though-black bears are common!
Boya Lake Provincial Park, Canada
Boya Lake Provincial Park, known for the color and clarity of its lake, is a great place to enjoy any type of water recreation. The lake is also one of the few in the north that’s warm enough for swimming. The area was carved out by glaciers, leaving many islands and lakes behind for modern campers to explore on the park’s hiking trails.
Corcovado National Park, Costa Rica
Corcovado National Park is home to five percent of the world’s biodiversity-National Geographic described it as the most “geographically intense” place in the world. Camping is a great option for a visit to Costa Rica: you’ll be at the heart of the rainforest, away from the country’s touristy resorts.
Maasai Mara National Reserve, Kenya
If you’ve always dreamed of safaris (野外观兽旅行), Maasai Mara is the place to go. The best time to visit this large game reserve is between July and October, when you can witness the annual migration (迁徙)of Thomson’s gazelle, zebra, and wildebeest to and from the neighboring Serengeti, in Tanzania. Camp on the banks of the Mara River and hang out with the local Maasai people, well-known for their unique customs and dress.

Welcome To International Summer School
An enjoyable English language learning experience——together with organized sports, activities and excursion (外出游学) program.
International Summer School runs 3 different summer school centers for boys and girls aged from 8-21 years in the South of England. Our schools are chosen for their location, accommodation and excellent sporting and art facilities.
International Summer School has grown increasingly popular and attracts high student numbers each summer. We have many students and staff who return each year. Our courses are personal and of high quality. Students can surely have an exciting and enjoyable experience while improving their English at the same time.
Bethany Centre is situated in the heart of Kent in the beautiful countryside, very close to the village of Goudhurst, with its old fashioned shops and cafes, and Marden with its direct train route to central London. The historic large town of Tunbridge Wells is only 15 minutes away. Gatwick and Heathrow airports are easily accessible, as are Eurostar International Stations at Ashford and Ebbsfleet.
Moira House is based in Eastbourne on the south coast of England in the much favored Meads area of the town, within walking distance of the seafront and town centre. Gatwick Airport is about half an hour’s drive away and Heathrow around 40 minutes.
Eastbourne Centre is situated directly on the seafront and only a few minutes walk away from the main town centre, with its theatres, museums, art galleries, nightclubs, cafes, restaurants and good selection of indoor and outdoor shopping. Gatwick Airport is about half an hour’s drive away and Heathrow around 20 minutes.
The aim of International Summer School is to create a lively and happy atmosphere that makes learning and international communication enjoyable. Young people can have fun, but also gain considerable skills in English. A full day in London is always included, as well as other places of cultural interest.
Students of all cultures are welcomed as our aim is to create a summer school which can truly be described as International.
When we return your child to you at the end of their stay, we hope they will feel enriched by their experience with us and will look forward to returning to meet friends made at International Summer School the following year, as so many do.
