We're often asked
Can I afford it?
What happens if I change my mind?
When’s the best time to head over?
Au Pair: Most families need au pairs at the beginning of the school term, but this month differs between countries. In the northern hemisphere, it’s usually September which is the beginning of Autumn and in the southern hemisphere it’s usually January which is the summer season. It is, however, possible to match with families all year round. Short term placements in Europe are also quite popular for the Summer starting in June.
Teach: Some schools and language institutes have semesters. We suggest for the schools that have these term times to go at the beginning of the semester. We recommend using our guidelines found on each trip page to find the best time of year to go for you, however, most of our teach trips have intakes all year round.
Volunteer: As our volunteer trips are in various parts of the world, we recommend using our guidelines found on each trip page to find the best time of year to go for you. We suggest to avoid the rainy and wet seasons, some volunteer trips have specific times of the year to be present for the hatching and infant stages of animals. Most of our volunteer trips accept intakes all year round though.
