Grow some. Seriously.
Travel is awesome when you add in some adventure. When we started Xtreme Gap Year, the thing that really excited us the most was the nervous anticipation you get prior to doing something really amazing. To some that might be skydiving over the Great Barrier Reef, others might be learning to surf or white water rafting a raging thrashing River. To others it can just be the nerve wracking anticipation waiting to go off and travel. Our Australasia Gap Year Trips are all about that. There are about doing amazing things with amazing people.
Finally Fiji, with its golden paradise islands and incredible diving offers some superb chill time after a year of working your way round Australia and New Zealand.
