Arrival

Arrival to EI Camp

When you enter EI Camp, you enter a world of possibilities. Once you pass through “customs”, you are welcomed into a unique, authentic cultural immersion experience that lets you live the target language, English, all day, every day. At EI Camp we don’t separate life and language learning. From the moment you arrive, staff counselors will communicate in English just as if you were learning from inside an English-speaking country itself.

Arrival day

Upon arrival, you’ll present your passport at customs, receive an entrance stamp and choose your own EI Camp name by creating your own custom-made olivewood nametag. Why do we use different names? Because Jack tackles challenges that Can would never dream of! Assuming a special name at camp helps campers push the boundaries, try things they might not do at home and gain the confidence to become courageous global citizens.

Medication will be collected at customs by the camp nurse.

All luggage will be searched for Contraband. What is Contraband? During your stay at EI Camp you will be asked to remain in the target language: English. Upon inspection of your luggage at customs, anything that is NOT in English will be collected and safely stored until the last day of the camp and then returned to you. For example, if you bring a book or any reading material in Turkish, that will be considered Contraband.
