Many students spend some part of their gap year abroad and if that’s you then I have a challenge for you. Instead of spending your time getting sunburned and bored, why not have the adventure of your life volunteering in Africa!

People say it’s a small world, and these days traveling to Africa is much easier than when Livingstone got himself lost up the Zambezi! Flights are frequent from most parts of the world and getting around inside Africa might be a constant adventure but mostly now it’s in comfortable four wheel drive vehicles. Trekking is, of course, open to those who want it, but it’s entirely up to you.

But why volunteering in Africa for your gap year abroad?

For many it’s the huge range of choices. If you are a keen photographer then photographing African wildlife will appeal to you. Far from being just a safari holiday, this is important conservation work and you will have the help of highly skilled professional photographers and specialist African guides with you in the bush.

What about walking with the African lion? I don’t mean looking at one through bars, I mean actually walking with young rescued and captive-bred lions as they learn to hunt before being re-introduced to the wild.

The African people need your help too. There are teaching opportunities, chances to help with African orphans, medical assistance in a variety of situations, the chance to help with infrastructure in African townships, building schools for African children. If gardening is your thing then you can help with establishing crops. Whatever your particular skill or passion African volunteer organizations will find a way for you to make the biggest impact in the shortest time.

Let’s not forget the adventure part of volunteering in Africa though. Yes, there’s work to do, but there are also the opportunities to go bungee jumping near Victoria Falls, white water rafting on the Zambezi, big game fishing of the Cape, elephant riding through the bush, surfing, snorkeling and horse riding, not forgetting the fabulous food and sampling the world-renowned South African wines. Your gap year abroad could find you sleeping on a beach somewhere, and we’re not suggesting there’s anything wrong with that some of the time, but you might want to add an adventure in Africa while you are at it!

Well winter is fast approaching and your all done with your RV or trailer. Now before the winter comes, you have to winterize your RV. Hopefully you’ve done it already like myself because winter is already here. If you live in a warmer climate, maybe the winter hasn’t hit you yet. So you will have alittle longer to do this or your still using your RV or trailer.

Where I live, right after the Thanksgiving long weekend, I get myself ready to winterize my trailer. First I take out all the food, clean it up, put things in their proper place and just basically tidey it up. I give the trailer a good washing on the outside, also don’t forget the awning as well. I open it up, prop the support arms underneath the trailer so the awning top is flat to the side of the trailer. A good power wash will clean whatever has gathered on the top of the awning. I then clean the wheels with Armoral to protect the sidewalls and then cover them with wheel covers.
