GAP YEAR

Many young people contemplate about a gap year between leaving a school and going to university, which they use as an opportunity to travel, earn money, or get experience of working. Very often they head to abroad to get some pre-training in a host country. The key thing is that they should have realistic expectations of what how things are likely to turn inside out. No gap-student is ever going to save the world or have a year of blissful nirvana without no any strains or challenges. However, with the right set of attitudes, they will almost certainly have a raft of new experiences, and come in out at the end of it with much greater resilience, independence and maturity.
