My name’s Sophie (who would have guessed) and I was on a 5-months trip through 4 countries: First Japan, then Australia, New Zealand and Canada. In Japan I was accompanied by Manu, a Swiss I met last Summer when moving to Switzerland and in Canada my dear Viennese friend Lola joined me. I did this trip after working and saving up for some time. I am certain that this way I am spending my Gap Year in the (for me) best way imaginable. Afterwards, I will be studying Physics, at Birmingham, in England – my next adventure, as to speak.
