Summary

Taking a year off, known as the Gap Year in the UK, is a rite of passage for British students. This one-step guide covers pre-trip planning, continent overviews, best routes, volunteering, gap-year placements, and working abroad-from fruit-picking to teaching, yacht-crewing and au pairing. (Targeted primarily to the UK market.)
