Gap Year in Canada

If you want to do a ski or snowboard instructor course, or just rent a place for the season, Canada is a fantastic gap year option. Canada is also a great place to work and it is possible, through some employers, and many gap year operators, to secure employment before you get there.


Canada's unspoilt wilderness and world class ski resorts are undoubtedly the main draw for travellers to Canada but there are also lots of lively cities and it's an exceptionally friendly place for a foreigner to live and work.
