Rooted Life Adventures' 5-week summer camp in Costa Rica for teen girls aged 14–17 combines adventure, cultural immersion, and therapeutic support. Engage in the adventure of a lifetime while earning volunteer hours, immersing yourself in the Spanish language, and interning in an ESL program. Our live-in therapeutic coach leads life skills workshops and 1-on-1 coaching. PLUS we live in a VILLA with a pool, waterfalls, and toucans!
Our Costa Rica program is the perfect blend of study abroad, summer camp, and slumber party. Designed for teen girls who have faced challenges—whether it's anxiety, depression, learning differences, bullying, or a life-interrupting experience like Covid—this camp gives them a chance to make up for lost experiences. In 5 weeks, participants embark on an adventure of a lifetime, complete with surf lessons, jumping into waterfalls, jungle hikes with sloths and monkeys, white-water rafting, a flying trapeze, coffee and chocolate farms, and visits to animal sanctuaries. After exciting days, they come home to karaoke parties and endless fun. Along the way, they engage in a meaningful internship, volunteer, experience cultural immersion, and learn essential life skills like cooking, cleaning, and shared responsibility—all while having a blast! Parents receive weekly photos, ensuring an enriching experience that builds resilience and confidence.
