Gap Year Programs in Australia & Oceania

Nothing spells gap year like Australia and Oceania! That’s not only for foreigners going there, but for the locals as well: Many years before gap year experiences became popular in the Americas and Europe, young people from Down Under would spend the year between high school and college traveling the world, working, and gaining global experience. Few places in the world are packed with as many exciting work and study opportunities, sport and adventure activities, and breathtaking sceneries as you will find during your gap year in Australia and Oceania!

I found my place to be

July 01, 2025by: Luisa Link - GermanyProgram: Farmstay New Zealand
10

I started into my farmstay with no expectations really and I found everything I was ever hoping to find. Many people wish they knew they where in 'their good old days' when they happened and not afterwards and I can say, I knew while I was living them. The past 9 months in New Zealand were the best time I ever had in my life. And without Internex they wouldn't have happend. So thank you to the team of Internex. You did such an amazing job with everything.
