Oyster Worldwide offer a very personal service with detailed preparation and support before, during and when you return from travel. Pre-departure services include an interview and a personalised portal with all the details about your project and what to expect. We advise on safety, cultural issues, flights, what to take, currency and what life will be like in your chosen destination. Oyster Worldwide pride themselves on selecting projects that we believe are genuinely worthwhile. Every project has been visited by a member of the Oyster team and vetted for excellence.
The job description
a typical day on this gap project
Daily tasks will vary depending on which role you are in. A typical working day starts at 9am, and finishes when the required work is finished. This leaves free evenings and 2 days a week for down time. Whilst the Rockies are a fantastic place to ski in winter, summer also offers plenty of opportunities to enjoy the stunning scenery. Between rock climbing, mountain biking and hiking, the mountains will never cease to amaze you. Working with fellow students, you will make friends as you live and work in Canada, exploring the mountains together and learning about this spectacular country.
