Overseas Experience




It is common for young people to spend a number of years overseas during their late teens, twenties or early thirties. This forms part of many countries culture and this period of overseas travel plays an important part in the lives of many growing up and broadening their experience in life.

The overseas travel usually occurs following the completion of secondary education, or tertiary education, as a way of taking a break from education prior to commencing a career in their home country.

Many of such travellers come under the label of Backpackers due to their limited budgets and the service industries that have been created for such travellers are of considerable importance in many countries in the world.
