Gap year

Today I will talk about the famous "GAP" year.
Some students, go a year abroad between high school and college. During this gap year, students engage in academic courses, especially to learn new languages. They have also the chance to do a volunteer work or a "travel and work" year.
The practice of taking time out developed in the United Kingdom during the 60's, but today it has become one of the biggest dreams for every student. It's a perfect opportunity to learn new languages, learn more about the cultures from other countries, make new friends and to live amazing experiences.
The most important reasons for students to go abroud could be:

- They want to see something else, and not always their own country.
- They want to go away from their parents.
- They want to live for the first time by their own.
- They are interested in other cultures and languages.
- They want to meet new people.
- They want to make a break from the studying, before going to college.

When I finish school, I will also make this experience. Not just for learning a new language, I will work and earn some money to pay the University.
