I had a lof of fun with people I met there, the funniest moments I had were with them. I also loved going rafting, camping and having free time in the city or when we had the scavenger hunt to look for William Tell.

About us

More than 770,000 Swiss citizens currently live abroad for shorter or longer periods of time, and the trend is growing. Identifying as a Swiss Abroad has a long history behind it, just as the camps run by the Foundation for Young Swiss Abroad (FYSA) have a long history behind them.
