Gap Year Experiences

Updates and info from on the ground during our 11 week and 5 week Experiences in South Africa

Firehouse party

Tuesday 31 July 2007

Last Monday (23rd July) saw our launch party at Firehouse club in South Kensington. Despite the rain threatening to keep people away, we had a great turn out and all in all it was an amazing night! Thanks to everyone that was there. The highlight of the night was the launch of our competition to win a 3 month Pepper Experience in January. The first finalist coming from the entries at Firehouse is Sophie Ogilvie. She will join two other finalists in a draw on the 25 August to decide who wins this amazing trip. Congratulations to her!!!

You can still enter the competition on our website so if you are interested in spending 3 months in South Africa, travelling, volunteering, surfing, diving, yachting, wakeboading, kite-surfing and living in game reserves check out our website for more info on the competition and what our trips are all about.

Below are a few pictures from the launch...

Hey all

Welcome to the pepper blog. This is going to be a platform for us to keep you updated on any new and exciting news that comes our way. Feel free to send us all your compliments/abuse/opinions etc. at info@experiencepepper.co.uk.

After a busy marketing tour around some of the most beauftiful schools in England we are really excited by the enthusiasm of everyone out there! We met some awesome people and are looking forward to seeing some of you out in SA soon!

Our January 2008 trip kicks off on 28 Jan and we expect it to be booked out fairly soon so if you are interested in joining us, visit the website at www.experiencepepper.co.uk or drop us an email asap. We've put together some really exciting stuff for our launch trip and I personally can't wait for January to come! Sunny days on the beach, swimming in the beautiful rivers of the drakensberg mountains and the sunsets of the African bushveld are going to be that much more special after the horrific summer we are having in the UK this year! Hope you're all having an amazing summer so far and heres to the weather changing round very soon!

Cheers for now.....
