A popular choice with travellers is a round the world air ticket.

With this ticket you can choose which countries you visit and participate in work and volunteer projects as you travel.

Volunteer and work programmes allow travellers to immerse in a local culture, become fluent in a new language, learn about eco-systems, animal conservation and participate within local communities.

Some ideas for your trip :

South Africa, experience the ultimate African safari; thrilling wildlife encounters combined with life changing conservation and local community projects.
India, teach English to local communities.
Sri Lanka, volunteer at an elephant orphanage.
Thailand, train to be a PADI dive instructor.
China, take part in a panda conservation project & go on a tour.
Australia, paid work in the outback.
New Zealand, get your hands dirty and contribute to environmental conservation projects.
Argentina, learn Spanish and dance the tango in Buenos Aries.
USA, spend the summer of a lifetime as a camp counsellor at a summer camp!
Canada, work at a ski resort in the spectacular Rocky Mountains, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Then when you get back home start planning your next trip!

What is a gap year?

A gap year is a break from study or work which usually lasts three months to one year. People of all ages take gap years, many young people in the UK tend to take a gap year prior to or following college or university.

A gap year can include a period of change from living in your home country, to travelling the world undertaking work, volunteering or just exploring. In the UK a gap year when leaving school and before entering higher education is a now a very popular transitional choice.
