So, this gap year's been one hell of a ride, hey! 🙈 At the end of the day, was it worth it??? Do I feel behind my friends? Am I prepped for uni? What skills have I gained? Enjoy a lil chat about this rollercoaster of a time ✨ Are any of you guys considering a gap year? I can remember being so so confused before deciding to take one! xx
(( spoiler, i don't regret it !!! ))
I feel like Jade changed my life some how, after watching her videos I started working hard in school, loving myself and overall I've grown up
Thank you for being such an inspiration and role model
Love you🧡
Whitney Austins this!!! I feel so empty when she doesn’t post hahahah
same!! she’s literally so inspiring 💖💖💖
Whitney Austins same! Before watching her videos, I didn’t care about school, because I was afraid to care. I was afraid that if I cared too much, I’d be disappointed. But I’d rather put a lot of effort and be disappointed than not care at all. Of course, I’m typing this on results day.. I hate to be negative but I know I haven’t done as well as I could’ve (because I literally left more than half of each chemistry and each physics paper blank). Unfortunately, I started to care about my GCSEs when it was too late.
@@livingthecentralperklife31 it's never too late!! wish you all the luck
How did she passed college test if she travelled fo a year and obv couldnt study?
Also big thing no one talks about are gap years AFTER uni
It’s always grad jobs grad schemes and unrealistic expectations of suddenly knowing what you’re doing and landing your dream job straight away
Yes! I'm taking one now between my bachelor and master's and people are so confused :')
me rn! I am supposed to finish this semester so basically taking a year and a half off
another thing no one talks about is a GAP LIFE, where you move to the mountains, check out from society and the system and live your gap life in the wildernes
I totally agree!! I want to do a gap year after uni :)
I'm taking a gap year after. It's super helpful to know I already have my degree so I can come back and work when I'm done exploring. Plus it gives me time to SAVE for it. When you're not making that UA-cam coin, you might need the extra time to save. :)
Jade: “even if you spend the entire year working at tesco”
Me who didn’t do ucas this year so I could travel but coronavirus made that impossible now and is actually stuck at tesco full time now school is cancelled: 👁👄👁
Relatable.
That's such a pity, I hope you can travel sometime later!
I didn't go to uni aged 18, I didn't feel ready, so I took a "gap year" that lasted 3 years haha. I was an Au Pair and then worked in a ski resort - I couldn't afford a normal gap year experience but the jobs I did didn't cost me a thing! Everything was provided: Accommodation, food, lift pass, ski hire, travel from the UK to resort. Even as an Au Pair the accommodation and food was provided for, it was just the flight I had to pay for. So there are definitely options out there for those that don't think they can afford a gap year. :) I went to uni aged 21 and I am so glad I did that because I'd matured a lot over those 3 years of working abroad and could handle deadlines and uni stress a lot better than those that were younger than I was. :)
Alice Scott I’m looking at doing a ski season on my gap year. What company did you do yours with and what job did you do? Would love to know a bit about it because I don’t know anyone that’s done one.
@@annamason4638 Have a look at the website 'Workaseason'. That's who I went with. Organisations like BUNAC and Oyster Worldwide also do ski seasons but you have to pay a programme fee, whereas with Workaseason you get everything provided for you (travel to/from the UK, accommodation, meals, season lift pass, ski hire etc). I was a Hotel Assistant which is basically Housekeeping and Restaurant service in a hotel, but there are other roles too like Chalet Host, chefs, resort reps, ski reps etc. If you have any other questions, my Instagram is alpinestudies. :)
I'm Swedish and yes, most people here start uni between ages 21-25! I think uni is structured in a totally different way here as well though, you can easily apply for single courses (one term, half a term, many people do this after high school to get a feel of it) and uni is totally free. In a way, I think this makes Swedish students more lazy to start uni, because there are no consequences of putting it off. Wages here are high so working unqualified jobs makes for a pretty good standard of living as well
if only the US was like this
Nearly the Same in germany
Ok then
I'm coming to sweden!
All I know is
'Du gamla du fria du fjall ....'
No disrespect
By the way, Can 5'9 people live there?
Will they feel short?
I hate that feeling
Nobody take me wrong
I love Scandinavia
noobmaster69 im 5'9 too :) But of course, there are plenty of 5'9 men here! I think 180 cm is the aversge so no problem
@@ellen3093 180!
I'm just 175
I hope I grow taller
JADE I GOT INTO MED SCHOOL!!! THANK YOU for all the motivation, you are incredible. Been here since 3000 subs xxxx
where!
Nikki K Congrats!!🎉
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Congratulations 😍😍😍 well done! xx
Congrats 🎊🎉
Also, at the end of my gap year and can 100% agree on everything you've said.
Another pro: You actually start missing studying at some point and get super hyped about going to uni
Another con: You have so many people you miss because all your friends live all over the world now.
I'm starting uni now after my gap year and my first lecture yesterday was like yes INFORMATION GIVE IT TO MEE
same!! the missing friends thing is so real though
Melisa Rose I don’t have friends, so a gap year sounds nice
A video about how you plan and organized this gap year would be so interested !
This is awesome!! I think it will help a ton of people
Awhh Emily!! Thank you so much 🥰🥰
I took a gap year two years ago, and it was so worth it. Actually, I wanted to go to uni abroad but I was so stressed out about it, so after choosing the right university and the right country I decided to spend my gap year traveling across it. I met so many new people, learned a language(from B1 to C1 in just one year among native speakers, it was really easy and it was a lot of fun), I found out a lot of new things, got to know other culture and finally I earned some money and saved some for a new academic year , so now I do recommend a gap year to everyone, especially if you doubt what you should do after school. Don’t be afraid of change ❤️
P.S. In my country literally nobody takes a gap year as it is considered as a waste of time, I was the only one from my school who took a gap year, all of my teachers didn’t support me in this and tried to persuade me, but luckily they didn’t succeed
Krystyna Krystyna May I ask what language did you learn?
@@emmaberwick1479 sure, it was Polish
wow I'm early, and you can TELL how much Jade has grown this year like yessssh
EDIT: OH MY GOSH JADE LIKED MY COMMENT, I'M GAAAAASED. And thank you for 150 likes... it's official, I'm famous
Brownie so agree!!!
Cringe
@@adamseddon1847 the irony here is the that the cringe comment here is yours lol.. why you watching a youtuber that teem girls watch then hating on the teen girls comments...get a life lol
you edited your comment!!! when you edit your comment the heart goes away 😫
I personally think when you finish college (if you go) gap years should be mandatory. I took a three year gap year and it was the best thing I ever did. I think 18 year olds need to go out and experience the real world and try lots of things before they commit to one thing. I think going to university with more of an open mind than like Jade said being in the school system. You are kind of ignorant because of the education bubble and gap years allow you to grow and find yourself. I am very passionate about gap years.
Did you go uni after the 3 years?
Yes I am going this year and I’ve been working for three years as I had no idea what I wanted to do. I was very much pressured by my college to go and I went along with it as I didn’t have a clue. I didn’t get the grades to get into any uni really (lol) but then I did an apprenticeship and got a full time job doing that then this past year I’ve gone back to college and studied a course which allowed me to go to uni. Now I’m off :)
@@georgiajones8263 so you're in your 20's right? Do you feel like you'll be an odd one out, being older than many there. I want to take a two year gap year but I'm nervous about the age gap in uni when socialising, making friends. I know it's not that big a deal but I worry
honey_melanin no you are completely justified in feeling the way you do. I’ll be 21 when I go and 24 when I finish. Honestly I have two friends going with me to uni both who are 25. When I went to an introduction day a lot of people were 20+.
I was very anxious like what are the 18 year olds going to say they will think I’m so old and honestly I don’t think they care. I think as a “mature student” which I hate that name because I feel like I am being compared to an age of a cheese you will meet other students your age.
I did find seeing all my friends graduating a bit hard because they are finishing now as I’m starting but I keep reminding myself I did what was best for me and I’m so glad I didn’t follow the crowd and do what everything else was doing.
Follow your heart because you’ll thank yourself. Screw what anyone else thinks :)
Do I need to go to uni in order to have a gap year? Or can I have a gap year after college?
As an asian girl with brown parents I'd never be able to do all this...especially since I'm an only child so they're more protective.😂 I'm basically living my dreams through jade lol
There’s an 80% chance of me doing gap year before uni and I am so ready for it, quick question... how long before hand did you plan everything you were going to do? Travelling etc ?Xx
I did Oz and South Asia this year and just planned it while I was working from sept-jan XX
It needs less planning than you think, my plans literally shattered month into the gap year and it has been the best thing to be spontaneous
Peace Prevails I would loooove to go to India my brother spent 3 months there this year and said it was amazing! I love the accent too!
It’s usually cheaper for accommodation & travel the more in advance you plan so if ur on a budget I’d say planning in advance as much as possible is key!
how do you plan on paying for it?
My gap year is coming to an end and I 100% recognise myself in what you said. Even if I didn’t travel and I felt lonely sometimes it was really worth it, because I managed to do some things that I wouldn’t have been able to do if I hadn’t been on a gap year.
lik
e what
like what?
yesss Jade, I remember the day you popped up in my DMs asking me about taking a gap year and I’m so glad you decided to take one - look how much you’ve learnt & grown!! so so proud 😌 xx
viola helen I’m gonna check out your channel! 😊
I’ve loved watching your gap year and travel vlogs this year and now I’m so inspired to travel myself in a couple of years!! 💙
was literally just binge-watching tons of your videos from last year and I see you uploaded! love you Jade and so glad you've enjoyed your gap year thus far :) Xx
Nothing but helpful videos! Such an inspirational person i ran out of time in my maths exam and your biology video made me feel better! Ty.
I love how you specify that a gap year can be such a different experience to people. That working for an entire year actually can be very beneficial to some! I personally had no clue of what I wanted to study, so I decided to take a gap year just working. During school I didnt have time to gain any work experience, so I worked a ton that year at a local store, being beneficial for my CV. Not only did it leave me with a good amount of money, it also really helped me work on social anxiety and gave me a confidence I didnt have before. Im now off to do my masters in education (yes, a profession that during my school years seemed absolutely impossible due to my social anxiety.). Taking a year or two to get to know your self better, or figuring out stuff, wont matter in the bigger picture of things
YES love this!! Thank you for sharing 🌟
I love these kind of sit down, talk and self-reflect videos.
Ilysm Jade💜 your videos inspires me very much, thank you🙏🏻
I will NEVER stop saying this but you are my absolute inspiration and I love your personality and presence so much and I aspire to be like you in life 💕💕💕💕
Hey Jade
I just wanted to say that you are a massive inspiration and your honest incite into what a gap year is really like has really helped me a lot. Thank youuu🤗💞
Love videos like these where you just sit and talk ❤️ you’re so wise and so inspirational!
Wow. Watching this video again feels like such a full-circle moment for me. I watched your videos throughout your gap year 3 years ago and now I have just finished my gap year! I spent a year abroad in Japan, living with my grandma. I have learned SO much over there and it’s an experience that I absolutely do NOT regret. I really really miss Japan and I feel very deflated right now but I am extremely grateful for the time that I managed to have there. I’m also very excited to jump back into education with a fresh mindset. Thank you so much Jade; seeing how you spent your gap year really helped me to make the most of mine, too!
I honestly love ur videos on plans post-mainstream education; I think they’re so important for people just leaving school. Can’t wait for your Minerva videos!! 💞
I’m going into Year 11 and I’m pretty certain that after my a-levels, I will take a gap year!! I just think it will help me mature as a person and get travel and working experience that those at uni probably won’t have. You’ve really inspired me by seeing your gap year journey and I’m so happy you enjoyed it!! Love you so much, I’ve been watching your channel for 2 years and you’re just so lovely💗💗
This is definitely your best video. It’s so good to see how much you have changed. You look/sound more mature and humble. I always loved your personality but I appreciate how much you changed for the better
I can’t believe I’ve been watching you from the very start and here you are... it’s so crazy watching you grow because it makes me look back on myself and realise how much I have grown too!! Thanks for sharing your journey with us!
Thank you jade for all your inspiration and real ness through your gap year. I’ve loved watching everything you’ve done and it has inspired me for my gap year this year! I love your real ness and you look so happy! 💕💕
It’s so amazing to see how much you have grown as a person😍🥰
jadeee, im an og fan literally been subscribed since pretty much when you first started!! but honestly i just wanted to say ily so so so much💗 you're so inspiring and yh just thank you for always inspiring and being amazing. ly sm 💞🏹
Your hair looks stunning, and your skin is glowing. I’m so happy that you enjoyed your gap year :)
Hi, Jade !
I am kazakh (Kazakhstan) and unfortunately , in our country adults and students themselves consider taking a gap year as a weird and useless decision and for all my 16 years of life, I have never met a person who took a year off, which upsets me. But over the past month I have seriously thought about this idea and thanks to you I am already choosing the program that suits me. Thank you very much for these videos, you really helped me! Good luck in all your endeavors!
With love , Naz ^_^
Gap year is good for anyone that is a middle class british citizen
no name I’m working class and I’m taking a gap year. You don’t have to be rich to take one:)
I took a three year gap year and I am nowhere near middle class.
Right??
@@georgiajones8263 so after u finished ur a-levels u took a gap for 3 years??
Why do people usually only take 1? What we're ur experiences and what did u do?
I've just finished my gcses but am planning to take the gap year
If you mean that in terms of funds I think it depends what you do. I worked from last October to the start of August and saved as much as possible, then went travelling for the last 2 weeks. Not quite as glamorous as travelling for the whole year I suppose but was still great & a good opportunity to save money for uni too
I’m soososoosososoosoososooo glad I have someone like you on this platform. I wanted to take a gap year and everyone keeps going on at me about it being a waste, but there’s so much I want to learn before I go to uni and I also want to feel stable. So thank you 💞 xxx
Jade, thank you for these inspiring experiences and pieces of advice that you share. You've made me and hundreds of other young people to care about life purpose and the importance of mindfulness.
Just keep doing what you're doing, girl. You're amazing!!! :)
love all your videos ❤️ this was super interesting to watch, good luck at uni 💫
I’m taking this current year off to travel, volunteer and do a working holiday this was super helpful!!
So glad to hear that you were happy during your gap year! After all, that's what counts. I am not really considering taking a gap year because I know that it wouldn't be the best thing for me. But it surely was a great time for you and it's great that you could choose the path that was right for you. You have helped me realize that I have to take care of my mental heath and for that I could not be more thankful.
You're amazing.
Love from Poland 🌼
Just been planning mine for after Year 13! Watching you has helped me so much... thank youuuu!!!!
Love these kind of videos about Uni💖 I’m going into year 11 but it’s very useful for the future 💖thank you ❤️
I'm only just going into year ten, and I completely agree
Anna Revidiego same
we LOVE a gap year QUEEN 🤩🥰🤩 such a good video xxx
I was thinking about doing a gap year to catch up on a lot of things I felt I was missing out on. Being 18, a lot of my friends already have their drivers license or a job. Some are managing other “adult things” that I feel I’ve been unable to do. I don’t even know what I plan to do if I go to college next year and I feel everything’s in such a rush. I’m scared of failing but I also want to see the world much more before entering another 4 years of school. But I also don’t want to feel left behind. All of a sudden life is just something I’m supposed to know how to handle when in reality I’m so lost and confused. My parents think the idea will just make me lazy but I’m not so sure.
jade is such a beautiful person inside and out 🥰
Totally agree with all these points - we have so many gap year students on our programs and it's amazing to see them develop and gain new skills throughout their time with us! Doing a gap year gives you that breathing space to figure out exactly what the best next step is for you academically, as well as providing you with so many opportunities to improve your confidence and learn new skills :)
I’m pretty certain I’m not going to take a gap year, but I will say that the confidence you have radiated through your gap year videos is so clear and it’s definitely contagious - I feel like I’ve been on my own little journey through watching your videos this year!! xx
So inspiring and I think a lot of people aren't taking the conventional way of life. We are told to go here, go there, graduate, get a 9-5 etc and you have shown so many of us that we can take our own life in a completely different and unique direction and gain so much from it. I cannot wait for my travelling days to come and I'm so excited to see your journey through university, JADE TAKES ON THE WORLD
Hi Jade! Glad to hear your gap year was worth it. I'm really looking forward to your Uni videos.❤
It's been so wonderful watching your entire journey ahh! Cant wait for my own in two years:)
id love to take a gap year after ive finished uni! Ive just finished my first year but working and saving whilst at uni has to be the best way for me personally! Ive loved your videos! theyve been so inspiring and theres so many places i want to go and things i want to do that ive seen you do that I would have never thought of before! good luck a uni! you'll love it! its been one of the best years of my life! Ive met such amazing people and had some great experiences and i cant wait to continue my course and education in september! xx
absolutely no words, jade. this is incredible, and the year has inspired me, when I finish a levels to take a gap year and travel. good luck at minerva. YOUVE GOT THIS!
Thank you for ❤️ing this ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
You just inspired me to go on (another) gap year between my BSc and Msc. It’s going to be my third year in total. I think you are so so right on the gaining perspective part. Taking time off before my BSc. made me choose a completely different degree, and it was the best decision I’ve ever made!
I am thinking about taking a gap year before uni, but my biggest concern is that I'm very introvert, so traveling alone or going to another country for a longer period is pretty scary for me, since I'm not someone who makes a lot of friends within a short time period. Anyone experience with that? :)
Same, I'm taking a gap year from september on and while I have a set plan until january, I still don't have that for the other months. I would love to travel, especially to China and Korea (IF I can afford it), but I'm sooo scared since I'm so not the person to go up to strangers especially people from completely different cultures (I'm really afraid of saying or doing something wrong/impolite though I want to learn more about new cultures)
I think confidence is something that will come with time💕 , or you could go on an organised gap year like for example I am going away with an organisation called project trust xx
Same with me but confidence grows with time, especially in situations like these! I went solo Interailling and did the ICS programme too and you gain a lot but it's ok to be quiet too 😊
xy z minor realistically who cares if you offend someone you’re in a different country after all. Take it as it is
@@xy1784 how did it go?
what you said about finland and gap years is 100% true and even though i didn’t do much more than work to save money for university that year i never regretted that year even a second. i have said this before and i’m saying i again: i think what you are doing has helped take off stigma of gap years in the uk so much! it’s important to show that it is not the end of the world to take a gap year if you maybe don’t know what you want to do or don’t get the grades needed or fall ill, but ALSO that it’s okay for a ”high achiever” to take a gap year and that having all a stars doesn’t mean you aren’t allowed to take time off for yourself! keep rocking jade 💗💗💗
"Alone time" Ohh so you mean my whole life?
Well, if you live with your parents, have truly been alone?
Oof. Love feeling personally attacked on a Sunday evening.
just a girl Good point actually
Bartosz Maj as a fellow introvert, I can relate
I RELATE
i so needed this video!! thanks jade x i defo want to take a few gap years and travel a lot. i’ve loved your videos from this year, thanks! xx
This is so helpful like all your videos you help me a lot with my mental health I really wanted to take a gap year but I can't in my country but I feel that I'm living it through your videos so thank you for being you jade 💙💙💙
Can’t wait to watch this! Also hope I can take part in your event in London!! Would be a dream 🎉
Loved this video! I’m thinking of taking a mindful gap year! You inspired me! You looked like you have had a whirl of a time!! You look so happy, positive and ready for uni xx
Yes! Can't wait to finish high school next summer and be free. Planning AT LEAST one gap year (but I'm pretty sure that it will be 2. I got so many plans, haha). I've really enjoyed your travel vlogs . They give me a lot of inspiration! Thank you, Jade!!
I’m currently taking a gap year between my bachelors and masters degree, mainly due to my mental health which wasn’t great towards the end of my degree. It can be difficult having such big plans and things you would love to do but not being well enough the achieve it all. I just want to say that even if you spend the year getting better, bettering yourself in any way at all is worth it :) I’m going to spend this year sticking to my meds committing to recovery and preparing to have the best year of even more learning and development when I do my masters. It doesn’t have to be super glamorous to be worthwhile, thanks for sharing Jade ❤️
Smart girl and what a grand adventure! I promise you will NEVER regret taking this gap year. You pegged it about working and saving money to pre-fund your adventure and working along the way. I wish I had taken a gap year. I'm now retired. Every year I try to travel at least three months and every time it's another wonderful experience. You are well prepared for the next phase of your life. Bravissima!
Thank you Jade. You are very inspiring to me. I also take a gap year and you have inspire me to get out of my country, traveling, working and meet new people.
I love your videos so much jade!! Deffo one of my fave UA-camrs💘💘
mate you mean a lot!! 🙈🌟🤧
Love you girl, great video it's really helpful 💛🧡
i love all your videos, just very nice watching you talking :)
starting uni in september! hope to see uni vids from you :>
This is exactly what I needed 😌✨
ahh thank you! i'm thinking of taking a gap year but i'm not sure yet so this video will really help me :)
wow, I remember watching your first Interrail video last year. At that time I was starting my last year of school and just wanted to go traveling. now yours is over but mine is about to begin. thank you for your inspiring videos.
Love that top! Looks really good on you
I did a gap year after bachelor’s graduation (currently on it) and it honesty hasn’t been as productive as yours but was definitely worth taking because when you graduate you’re scared of starting anything and figure out you’re not happy about it. Gap year makes you more self-aware and allows you to properly study your next steps. It’s really worth it but I also have to say that even when you graduate from university and no matter what path you choose (masters, job, gap year) you’re still going to compare yourself with friends, with those who chose to continue education or work in the industry and you’ll question your choices. It has to eventually end and the gap year makes it easier instead of having a breakdown while you’re on a job or a master’s program.
These types of videos make me dream about going to uni!!!!! ⭐⭐⭐
Honestly i'd never really considered a gap year before watching your videos but i've been really thinking about it. I'm just afraid i'll be a weight on my parents or i'll just be late to everything my friends do. I wouldn't know where to start but i'm definitely going to look more into it. You've also convinced me to go interrailing next year, even if none of my friends go. I just recently discovered your videos but they've helped me so much with my experience right now. I'm doing a High School exchange semester in South Africa (i'm from Italy) and it's been exciting but really hard, and your videos have really made me feel like a have a friend that understands what i'm going through.
heyy, i’m going to be taking a gap year this year and i highly recommend looking into it. i can’t offer an advice about it as i haven’t actually experienced it yet (haha) but i’m really looking forward to it and think it’s a great option. i’m going to be doing some traveling and my first stop is actually italy! good luck with whatever decision you make! :)
I start at university this September studying French but I’m 100% considering taking a gap year AFTER I’ve completed my degree - watching you document your past year has given me SO MUCH inspiration and made me so excited about what I might do
EARLLYYYYY yayayay a new videoooooooooooo
I’m going into year 10 but I’m still watching to support this amazing gal!
You’re ending your gap year just as I start mine! I head off to work in Hong Kong in 3 weeks☺️Thanks for all the gap year inspo xxx
I'm in the middle of a gap year, this really helped, thanks :)
It taught me to take some self discipline and taught me to manage time.
Sheesh...I couldn't agree more. I literally took a gap semester during this Covid, did an internship in the States. And yes, even though I will not be convocating with my cohort, I have more to gain from this gap sem. Because I genuinely believe that this gap semester will meaningfully shaped the rest of my life and how I go about choosing my career path.
The scary moment when watching it in 1.5x speed sounds normal
Nah but it does in 1.25 haha
On a real, this is exactly where my head is at rn. I’m so terrified of starting to travel. I leave for Australia in 2 months, and this video has put me at ease. Ready to challenge myself. Thank you for this video!
I like that you mention even just taking a year and working at Tesco would still be a learning experience for a gap year. I didn’t plan a gap year, rather dropped out of university after the first term. I worked for a year and learned a lot about myself and really made sure I was ready and wanted to go back to school before I did it. The US doesn’t really do gap years and I wish it was more of a promoted thing because even just working at a coffee shop for a year taught me a lot about myself and what I wanted to do before I committed to 4 years of education.
PLSSS do a podcast feel like so many people would love it!! 💕
This is exactly what I needed!
I just started uni this year in January, and even though I had wanted to take a gap year instead, I chose to wait a couple years to save up - I realised having started uni that theres a lot of people from so many different ages because they took gap years or something too! Thanks for inspiring me to keep on working towards that gap year even if it's still a year or two away :)))
Its interesting that you mention how its normal to take several gap years in scandinavia! Ive always seen that as the norm, and I didnt realise that it isnt the same way in the UK. I just started uni after two gap years and we are a good mix of people both younger and older than me. I honestly dont know how I would have managed in uni if I went right after high school - now i feel so ready!
Jade I love you! I decided to take a gap year a few weeks ago after changing my mind about my course. I was originally supposed to be studying Psychology, but I now have a deferred place to study Environmental Sciences in 2020, something I’m so much more passionate about :) currently working 25 hours a week in order to fund my travels this year. Already planned a trip to Vietnam!
As a Swede, I can approve that not taking one or more gap years, is out of the ordinary. Freshmen at Swedish unis are usually between 20-22, and many many people who study are middle-aged and want a career path or smth. I'm on a gap year right now, and I'd have been 17 if I'd started uni right after high school. (Im 18 now and planning on starting uni after summer.)
Loved this!!! I'm about to start my gap year!! I've tried to be proactive but so far everything has fallen through-however I'm still trying! Also you're stunning!
Such a real video, thankyou🌱💚🌼💛
Love your videos. They are so honest and inspiring 😊 I just finished school and started my Gap Year 💗
Really excited for this video!
What a thoughtful video! Thank you so much, I’m taking the gap year and will start uni in September 2020 :)
So helpful thank you!! 🌟💕
Aah Jade! You and your video's are amazing. And you have inspired me for my own gap year 🤗 I am very curious how you have planned everything? Thankyou for doing what you do!💛 X from the Netherlands
Thank you for making this video, it will come in handy!!
