Lesson 24
Grown-up gapper


Why should students get all the fun?

Thousands of working grown-ups are junking their jobs and hitting the road.

They're exchanging suits for sandals and heading off to places like Thailand, Brazil, Ecuador or New Zealand.

The world's their oyster and they're taking a year out. They're not going to party all the year round, oh no.

Grown-up gappers are mature professional people, truly interested in foreign lands.

When they come back, they'll tell you how a gap year has changed their life.

Oh, there's only one thing they can't stand about it - the thought of being back.
