Gap Year

This site is a treasure trove of information for those thinking of taking a Gap Year, and for their protective parents anxious about sending their offspring out into an unprepared, unsuspecting world. The site is staffed by former 'gappers', and the tone is enthusiastic, positive and above all, practical, and benefits greatly from all those who have shared the Gap Year experience.

Special Features

Message Board An active section with lots of messages posted each day. It provides masses of useful information and contacts in itself, whether you want to find out about living in Vietnam, working on a vineyard, securing sponsorship for trips, how to get a visa form from the Indian High Commission, teaching in the Indian Himalayas or details of helpful organisations such as Project Trust. And there's lots of useful feedback from those who have some experience of gap years.
