What is a gap break? Is it sun, sand, ski? Maybe it’s a chance for you to study something you would never have thought of at school? Or, maybe you could use a gap break to earn some money and get some useful work experience. If this sounds like what you would like to do then one of the best places to look is the International Hospitality and Tourism industry. This term we have a great feature on how this can be a great gap experience and even a potential future career.
Maybe you would like to do some volunteering on a Gap break? It’s a great way to help others, learn new skills and earn good credits for your CV. Read our volunteering article and find out more.
Have you read our Gap Magazine yet? It's packed full of ideas on what to do on a Gap break and how to go about planning and budgeting for one. Read it online here using our flippy page thing or download it as a full Hi Res PDF (12mb).
Gap and volunteering shows – Flip to the back of the magazine and you’ll see our calendar of Gap and volunteering shows this year. If you are considering a Gap break then we really do recommend coming to one. It's great to chat with people who do this for a living. Plus, you could find out firsthand what it's like from other returned gappers.
