There are many reasons why people take a Gap Year, year out or overseas experience as it is known in New Zealand. Many people now take one between school and University or University and the real world. But there are many more reasons; a break from work, a new direction in your life, retirement, or maybe living a lifelong dream.

Whatever your reason for taking some time out we've set up this site to inform you about New Zealand as the perfect destination. We hope you choose Aotearoa (Land of the Long White Cloud) but good luck with your travels and all the best for the future!
