Hippo Family Club presents
The 8th Asian Multilingual Nature Camp & Homestay in Thailand
Let’s experience nature in a multilingual environment with youth from all over Asia!
<<Recruitment Proposal for Camp Participants and Host Families>>
1. Program Background and Purpose
The LEX Institute / HIPPO Family Club* has been organizing the “Asian Multilingual Youth Camp & Homestay” in Shanghai, China annually since 2008 and the “Asian Multilingual Nature Camp & Homestay” in Malaysia and Thailand annually since 2010. The 8th “Asian Multilingual Nature Camp & Homestay in Thailand” and the 10th“Asian Multilingual Youth Camp & Homestay in Shanghai” are scheduled to be held in August 2017. Youth from China, Japan, Korea, Thailand, and other countries all over the world will gather to participate in these programs.
These youth exchange programs are part of the multilingual activities organized by the LEX Institute / HIPPO Family Club. These programs are intended to encourage youth from Japan and other countries to have firsthand experiences of camping in nature with foreign friends, as well as experience the local lifestyle, languages and culture which cannot be experienced in ordinary sightseeing tours. Working together, youth from all over the world can gain a broader world view, learn to recognize the similarities between each other, and develop new friendships. We hope that participants in these programs will make strong bonds and friendships with their camp mates as though they were real brothers and sisters. We also hope that this can be the beginning of a long-lasting exchange among Asian countries. Each Asian country is unique, and it is our hope for everyone to respect these differences and to acknowledge each country’s worth.
* About the Organizer (LEX Institute / HIPPO Family Club)
The Institute for Language Experience, Experiment & Exchange (LEX Institute) is a private non-profit organization founded in October 1981 under the theme “Languages and Humans” with the goal of researching languages and humans from the point of view of natural science through natural acquisition of languages and international exchange activities. The LEX Institute organizes “HIPPO Family Club” where families and individuals of all ages enjoy immersion-style multilingual language learning activities. HIPPO Family Club members create an environment where they enjoy the sounds of many languages through HIPPO’s original multilingual CDs. An essential element of this multilingual environment is incorporating members of all ages as well as members from around the world. The HIPPO Transnational Homestay Program allows members to spend time in the homes of families in numerous countries as well as to welcome foreign guests in their own homes in Japan.
