      I need one! Thinking of road tripping across the continent and down the coast, then backpacking Europe again... maybe just write a book from some random cabin in the woods.

    This is so helpful!! I'm considering taking a gap year after I finish highschool in a couple months, my mental health really needs it

    What's funny is I feel like I need a gap year (even though I am well past the age). Much preferred to the lost year (maybe two) that is 2020-2021. Great ideas!

      There is always time for a gap year if you need it! Of course I understand that the older we get, the harder it is put pause on life.

      It can be scary for sure to do as an adult, but think about all the experience you will gain throughout the year

      I would recommend slower travel, explore a country more in depth. Maybe add a language course or volunteering program in there as well. If you need more help figuring out what to do, you can check out my services: www.travelaimes.com/shop

    Can you be an Au pair for 2 weeks ?

    • @travelaimes
      @travelaimes  Před 2 lety +1

      No usually families want an Au pair for at least a month. But most of them are 6months to a year
