India

You should go to India!

This is a popular starting point for a gap year, and it's not difficult to see why.

India has elements of all the mentioned categories; with some of the most incredible wildlife (notably Tigers!) and natural beauty in the world. But India is mainly known for it's richness in culture.

Being one of the most vibrant culture-hubs in the world, you're bound to get your culture fix, as India is home to over 50 national religious festivals throughout the year. Hinduism is by far one of the most colourful religions and is evident in all the country's abundant religious architecture.

You could even start your adventure with us on one of our India projects!

Dubbed as the most bio-diverse place on Earth, famed by Sir David Attenborough’s love for this lovely little archipelago and well known as being the inspiration for Charles Darwin’s theory of natural selection; Ecuador is perfect for all you nature lovers out there.

Soak in the indigenous cultures as you explore the diverse landscapes that Ecuador has on offer while you step from the snow-capped Andes, onto the mangrove-lined beaches and finally dive into the depths of the largely unexplored Amazon rainforest.

Fiji

Fiji

You should travel to Fiji!

Having laid adrift in isolation for millennia, Fiji remains the unspoiled, tranquil archipelago that it always has been. With its palm tree lined sand beaches, captivating coral gardens and breath-taking lagoons it will be hard to keep your jaw from the floor! Life seems to have changed very little on this floating island in the South Pacific so it is still awash with the exotic customs and traditions that once thrived in the area. With these old traditions combined with the modern islanders vibrant and outgoing personalities, it will be easy for you to settle into the community in no time.
