: Time Out: Gauging the Value of a Gap Year Before College
: by Time Magazine...
: It seems the Americans start taking gap years before college
: but I believe this is quite common for youngsters from Europe.
: I just met some Germany lads bicycling across the States
: at one WMATA station of D.C. In the conversation I wished them
: good luck and discussed what they must visit when they
: arrived the West Coast ^_*
: But for Taiwanese youngsters, they must deal with lots of visa issues
: before starting the journey... alas...
i think the major problem isn't about the visa. it's about the
education. we always teach children to study math/english...ext.
for exam and find good jobs. Children have no time to know what
they want to do.
besides, before talking gap years, it's important to have the ability
of English and to know about the culture of the country you will visit.
if you dont do eighter of both.it will probably be a normal tour.
