Benefits of a Gap Year
Whether it's time off before, in the middle or after university, there are so many benefits to taking some time off!
Your volunteer gap experience with Give & Surf can help you learn new skills, be immersed in a different culture, meet new people, practice your Spanish, give back to the local communities, and even earn university credit!
