Everyone has a fear when they travel. For some the fear can manifest itself at the beginning and end of the trip when they board the plane while others (like me) are reduced in revulsion at the sight of a cockroach crawling up out of a squat toilet.
I don’t like wasps much either. They are nasty and unnecessary. That is pretty much the limit of the things I’m bothered by that other people would be fine with but for Deirdre it would be quicker to list the things that don’t scare her.
I always enjoy holding a brand new book in my hands. Second hand and electronic versions do not bring the same tactile sensation that comes with handling a new book, so it was a pleasure to be sent a copy of The Gap-Year Guidebook 2012.
Within its covers lies 448 pages of suggestions, advice and information for the adventures and CV enhancing courses that could be taken this year. Randomly opening a page leads to ideas as diverse as turtle conservation projects in Sri Lanka, learning music theatre production in Australia or short college tractor driving tuition in the UK.
Susan Griffith / Crimson Publishing
576 pages / 9th edition / £14.99
Over 620 English language schools and teaching organisations around the world have participated in revising the latest edition of this popular publication.
But Susan Griffith’s guides are usually much more than the sum of their facts and contacts and Teaching English Abroad is no exception in not relying solely on information gained from the industry. Much of the content comes from the perceptions of traveller teachers on the ground.
