A gap year (taking a year out/ a year off/ ...) between school or college and higher education or a job can be a very
exciting, challenging and valuable opportunity. You can be a volonteer abroad, do some work experience to build up your skills, discover new cultures...
Taking a gap year out can look good on a CV. Some employers may appreciate that you have spent some time overseas (to improve a
language, your education, learn new skills, share your knowledge...)
Which gap year type are you ?
This article from the Independent tries to give an answer , poiting out four different profiles : the volunteer, the hippy, the sportsman, the careerist : http://www.independent.co.uk/student/gap-year/which-gap-year-type-are-you-890694.html
Several organisations help young adults to plan their gap years
