Good thing they started a family tent camp in Lžka, that sounds practical. We also set up a tent in our garden for the weekend with the children when the weather is nice. How long is the camp running this year?

It’s good that a family tent camp has been launched in Lozhka - it’s good for children to live in nature without gadgets. In Munich, we also sometimes set up a tent at a friend’s dacha for the weekend, when the weather permits. Did you write how many days it will last this year?

In Yekaterinburg, we also tried a family tent camp in a parish a couple of years ago, and then the children lived normally without phones for a week. Lozhka is probably a beautiful place by the river. Has anyone written how many days the camp is open this year?

Good thing they started this family tented camp at Lojka, sounds like something practical for kids. In our parish, we once went out with tents for a day in the forest near Cluj and you would have seen how quiet it was without phones. How long is camp this year, has anyone posted?

Good thing they opened the family camp with tents at Lojka, sounds like something useful for children. At our parish in Iași, we once went out with tents to the forest near the lake, two days without phones and the children slept soundly. How long is the camp this year, did someone write in the article?

In our parish in Tula, a couple of years ago, we also set up tents for the weekend near the river, and then the children ran around normally without phones. In Lozhka, apparently, there is a good place near the water. And how many days the camp is open this year was not written in the article?

Andreea Stoica

Well said, Nicolae, these camps without phones do wonders for children. In our parish, we haven't reached the tents yet, but last summer we went with some families to a monastery in Dobrogea and they stayed late into the evening playing simple games. I haven't seen written in the news how long the camp at Lojka is, maybe someone from the diocese can clarify for us.

Nicolae Gheorghiu

The camp at Lojka lasts two weeks, Andreea, I read on the website of the diocese after seeing the news. At our place, when I went fishing with my niece on the Dniester, I left her without a phone and she played with sticks and stones for hours - it was as if she was reborn. What monastery did you go to in Dobrogea?

Gheorghe Munteanu

Yes, Nicolae, two weeks is a good time, enough to detach from the screens. At our place, on the shore of Lake Techirghiol, when my boy was little, he would leave his phone in the tent and catch frogs all afternoon. I went to the monastery of Saint Andrew in Constanța for the last time, it was very quiet there. Do you often go to the Dniester with your niece?

Татьяна Комарова

In Minsk we also practiced such trips with tents for a couple of days - the children really got used to their phones and splashed in the river all day long. In Lozhka the place is really good, near the water. How long did you usually spend the night in Tula, one night or more?
