A-Camp is, as the name would suggest, a camp for anime/manga/jap fans.
Summer Presentation Video |||||||||||| Winter Presentation Video
It is a 16+ event so if you're not sixteen or over do not apply. The camp is for teenagers and young people.
It takes place in Romania(a country most of you have never heard of, I know - it's the place Dracula comes from *half a forum just went: "Aaa!") and this year it'll take place between the 23d and 29th of august at a camp called "Valea Budului" near Bacau.
A-Camp is the short for Anime Camp. Based on Otakus(anime, manga, japan lovers, j-music….), A-Camp has already reached the 4th edition, this winter and 5th and 6th editions will follow as well, late this summer. Long short story is that from 100 campers at the 1st edition we soon reached 160~ in less then a year. The summer edition is larger than the winter edition who only has around 50-80 people. You’ll probably join the camp knowing nobody in it, and leave among friends...
Why go? You’ll cure yourself from the hikikomori disease in a just 6 days, being among a large amount of anime fans, you’ll have fun and make friends. It is also not very expensive. Depending on your location, the transportation and the camp will be less than 230euro(France, Italy, Germany, Spain, East Europe).

NOTE: I posted the topic here because it's pretty much an anime convention, the only difference is that you have where to sleep and what to eat and it lasts 6 days.
