Organization Mandate
When I explored the world, I found many people just following the same guide books, visiting the same places usually with the same people! So I created Gapforce. With our own staff living full time in countries we can find unique projects at a lower cost, and its safer and more fun than travelling on your own. We are specialists in school and university gap programs, filling the gap between your education and experience. Marcus Watts - Founder
