Main goal at Challenge Explore is that you as a student should be able to develop through team building, self-development, outdoor activities, practical and theoretical trip planning. You help plan your own backpacking trip, which gives you unique opportunities to make your travel dreams come true.
You will get challenges of many kinds. Through these, you get to know yourself, and see how far you can reach by stretching your own limits. The challenges can be both physical and psychological; spending the night under the open sky in Australia, spending a day alone in the forest, or traveling as far as possible in Norway without spending money. This gives life mastery!
Using nature and the surrounding area is also part of the experience this year. Team building we do in groups, small and large, both out in nature, in the classroom and on trips. We use challenges as a means of knowing our own limits and perhaps adjusting them a little. This way we can work both with self-confidence and self-esteem.
