Any gap yearers for 2013 - 2014?

Hello :smile:

Taking a year out after A2s in June but not sure what to do when not travelling. Interested in writing/photgraphy and hoping to study English...any ideas?

What's everyone else planning to do? Any reccommendations - travelling/non-travelling?

I'm looking to stay in Australia for at a least a few months. I will hopefully be doing part-time work there to keep my funding a float, and then will probably backpack to other destinations =]

Interested?

As you are interested in writing/photography, you can start a travel blog, travel review site or holiday recommendation site and use it to discover the best places in Australia as well as earn a living. You can also work for travel companies as travel writer or blogger.

Also anyone have any suggestions regarding stuff to keep me busy in the UK too? My degree choice doesn't really lead straight on to a job or anything and anyone have any suggestions which could help me out? :smile:
Think I'm gonna take a gap year, before reapplying to English, German and Spanish :smile: whilst at home I think ill get a job, and then do volunteering, take part in NaNoWriMo (writing a novel in a month so relevant to English!) take up a new hobby thats cheap, learn to cook interesting dishes... basically just doing stuff I've always wanted to :biggrin:

I'm taking a gap year, and will probably travel for a good part of it. I'm looking at starting my own little business up though.
