So, I'm currently on a gap year and have genuinely had the BEST year! ✨ I can't recommend taking one enough but maybe you're stumped for ideas. What can I spend my time doing for a whole year??? What's realistic? I hope these 35 realistic ideas of things to do in a gap year help you plan the best year! From backpacking, to WorkAways (much cheaper way to travel!), language immersions, Camp America, fulltime activism, starting a YouTube channel/blog, volunteering, EU Solidarity Corps and more, I hope you enjoy!! x
