This article is a travel topic.
A gap year is an extended break that some people take at a life transition, such as between studies, between study and work, or between careers.
There's no need for such a trip to be precisely a year, of course, but a year is a typical length of time for people who have just finished secondary school: they typically have to delay university entrance for a year to take the time off. Some of the same principles can be applied to just a summer between school and college, or any extended break "between jobs".
This article discusses options for low budget long-term travel of the type that a gap year traveler might be interested in.
