Gap Year in French Polynesia
French Polynesia is filled with glamorous people, honeymooners, and imported beer. It is made up of 118 beautiful islands, including Tahiti and Bora Bora, some of the earth’s most picturesque places. No wonder the jet-setters love it here. Sadly, the tourist industry discovered the profit potential of the Polynesian islands long ago, so this isn’t a destination for the budget-conscious.
Travellers to French Polynesia won’t find an abundance of opportunities on the islands so its not a bad idea to combine your trip with a voluntary post in Fiji, casual employment in New Zealand, or train as a skipper in the Pacific Ocean.
