You could always just get a job out here then travel for yourself. You could also try the nanny program thing oversea's, i don't recommend that though, i considered it despite the fact i hate kids and i've heard some horror stories. You could also personally apply to places because the GAP program just does it for you really. It'd be pretty hard now, it's a bit late.

There are summer camps in the Us that I think are still accepting, I actually have thrown out my inof on it but ask your careers teacher and I'm sure they'll have some! I think they had either summer camps (obviously our winter) in the states and Russia!

If you go to gap australia website you'll find that they are actually still taking applications for placements second half of 2006. They are having some probs getting enough ppl because there is a huge drop in the number of ppl from the UK applying this year as those who enter uni after next year in england will have to pay their increased uni fees. Go back to www.gapaustralia.org and check it out.
