Among the unusual breaks targeting the adventure and experience-seeking over-50s are i-to-i.com s African wildlife art course (lasting up to six months) and their Gardening in the Galapagos volunteering break (introducing organic farming methods and preserving the natural habitat of this sensitive region).

September 2007, PRIMA: "I'd read articles about older gap-year backpackers and thought, if they can do it why can't I ...I flew to Costa Rica to spend six weeks teaching English. I remember sitting in the airport feeling terrified...I felt like turning back. But after that wobbly moment I didn't look back.'"

Having retired after 33 years of teaching, I wanted to do some conservation work. I found a panda programme in China through a company called i-to-i, spoke to one of the co-ordinators and paid my deposit there and then. My family were shocked, especially as I had never even flown on my own. My daughter told me to go for it....i-to-i provided a house in Xi'an where volunteers from different projects stayed. Although I was probably the oldest there I never felt out of place. In my spare time I visited museums and pagodas. Doing it on my own gave me a sense of achievement and made me more assertive.

Camilla Hicks had no idea where Guatemala was when she volunteered to spend two months there working in a boys' orphanage. "Lots of people went to Australia or South America for their gap year, " the 20-year-old said. "But I didn't want to do the same route everyone was doing. South America is so like the Caribbean. And I'd never heard of Central America, so I thought that would be different." Read the full article here

Spring found me on the other side of the world, teaching English at a middle school in Beijing with i-to-i, the gap-year company. The classes comprised 40 to 50 students dressed in gleaming white tracksuits with blue and red flashes, the school giving the impression of an Olympic training academy. They had the discipline to match, with choreographed exercises and flag-raising at dawn, lessons beginning at 7am and an optional English Corner after school. In return for the long hours, we were showered with hospitality, housed in luxury apartments, assigned minders whenever we left the school and given all kinds of gifts. We forged close friendships, being invited back to students homes in the holidays and taken out to bars by some of our own age. Four years on, I am still in touch with many and have been back to visit.

When I arrive at the i-to-i house in Rio de Janeiro, I spot a few worrying similarities to this year's Big Brother house. There are around 15 excitable girls, just one guy, and a hot tub on the terrace. But these housemates are not searching for fame - far from it. They have chosen to spend some precious time pre-, post- and in between education doing voluntary work in Brazil. The hot tub, alas, turns out to be empty, to conserve water.

Based close to Kuching, the trip includes longboat river trips and waterfall hikes, market visits and temple tours, plus two nights by the beach in Kubah National Park.

• 12 August 2007, THE INDEPENDENT:

"Following my A-levels, and a lot more thought, I decided I really wanted to study English literature. I then began thinking about my gap year and decided to teach. While I was terrified by the idea, I was also thrilled at the thought of standing in front of a classroom and being asked to teach English as a foreign language. The gap year organisation i-to-i seemed ideal, offering all the experiences I wanted. I ended up teaching in Bangalore for just over two months and then went travelling afterwards, feeling much more confident and comfortable in another country, culture and lifestyle."

A number of organisations, including www.i-to-i.com, offer supported placements on volunteer projects, such as Panda conservation in China. These can teach skills, and sometimes languages, that most employers rate highly. Paid work is an alternative for those not taking a sabbatical from work. A TEFL course costs from about 150 to 400 and will enable you to teach English abroad. Placements in East Asia offer payment of more than 1, 000 a month, plus free flights and accommodation.

• August 2007, EVE MAGAZINE:

A volunteer holiday to Costa Rica was exactly the challenge I d been looking for. I d gone as far as I could with my job and wanted to experience a different way of life, so I handed in my notice and signed up for three months. I started out teaching English in the tiny village of San Francisco, then moved to the coast to work with leatherback turtles, patrolling the beaches and swimming in the ocean to observe them. The day I left, I wept all the way to the airport. Costa Rica had taken a little piece of my heart. /p

The Teach Inn project in Niyakasiru, southern Uganda, was set up by British entrepreneurs Deirdre Bounds (the founder of ethical travel company i-to-i), Seb Bishop and Tony Callaghan as part of a Channel 4 documentary to be broadcast this autumn. ...The hotel will provide a base for international volunteers, but also helps fund future community development projects in the area, with all the profits made from volunteers staying in the hotel being invested back into community projects

I'd suggest a Meaningful Travel (www.i-to-i.com) volunteer project in India. There's one in Bangalore costing 895 for two weeks ( 60 per additional week) with start dates on 22 July and 5 August, including accommodation and meals. She could then tag on two/three weeks travelling at the end. Read the full article here

Based with a local family in the capital, Tegucigalpa, you ll be working on an English-language newspaper, reporting on politics, sport and current affairs. This is gap one-upmanship on an almost indecent scale. Basic Spanish is a must, while school-newspaper experience, though not essential, will help your application.
