Come learn to code in the Himalayas during the HillHacks Code Camp April 04 - May 20 2016. Apply by 13th March.

This is a great chance to get away from the heat and the distractions of your regular life. You can establish a healthy routine of physical activity and programming, and hang out where it is beautiful and cool, with new interesting people who are also interested in programming and self improvement. We might even let you borrow a laptop if you need one.
