The first step to planning a gap year is to decide both where you want to go and what you want to do. Some regions are best for some things, while some are better for others, so it’s really important that you do your research carefully.
Conservation work
Animal Rehabilitation
Backpacking and adventure travel
Sport activities
Summer camp volunteering
Working with young people
Teaching
Health and medical opportunities
Another important question to ask yourself is do you wish to plan your own travel adventure or go through a known gap year provider.
