A GAP YEAR

Every year thousands of students in Britain and many other countries take a gap year before going to university. Some choose to do some volunteer work, others try to get some working experience, others just spend the year travelling.

Now you are going to plan an imaginary gap year. Decide what country or countries you want to visit and what job or activities you'd like to do.
