A return visit to Ubud

Jessica first brought Theo to Empathy camp two years before this interview. That visit made a lasting impression, so the family returned for a week in Ubud with both Theo and Rafa.

She values the children’s closeness to nature and the unstructured time they have to create and explore. Meeting people from different cultures is another part of the experience she appreciates. The boys also share their own favourite moments in the video.

In their own words

Selected excerpts from the interview.

What I really appreciate about empathy camp is that the kids are so close to nature. They get to have so much unstructured time being creative and exploring. And I also love that they can hang out with people from different cultures and walks of life.
