Most think that for a gap year travel to be successful; the students must flocked to the same favorite and popular destination similar to gap year Costa Rica right after grabbing your gap year insurance. Most also think that all gap year travel is all easy work and volunteers. And the only challenge is surviving these easy days away from home.

Let give you a glimpse of my gap year. Would I say my gap year is a challenge to those kids who love not just mere travel but real gap year adventure. Well, let me set this straight- an adventure to me may not be an adventure to you. So we may have differing opinions. I am done with conquering heights and all those extreme adventure sport and this time the word gap year adventure has taken new meaning and new heights.

I am a marketing student and thus I decided to test if indeed I am built for this kind of career. Marketing is not an 8 to 5 job; for marketing is 24 hours job with no holidays. I mean you have to live the life of a real pro marketing genius if you want to excel and be successful in this niche of the business.

So my gap year backpacking adventure start with a flight going to Japan and after a year’s course of Japanese language plunge into a door-to-door selling; the toughest niche in the marketing area. I could have gone to gap year costa rice but decided to go to Japan instead. Yet the bright side of it; I was plunge I mean deeply plunge into a Japanese culture more than I asked for.

But the blessing could not stop pouring in I was given a chance to not only visit and sightsee Okinawa’s best attraction places but the chance to dissect to the very little detail one tourist attraction can ever give.

I got to rub elbows with Okinawa’s best places of interest like Shuri Castle, Nakagusuku Castle, Shikinaen Garden, Nakamurake Residence and Hedo Misaki. A few of the attractions I had visited. I was pleased with what Japan travel can offer to their guest.

I reflected that behind the hardship in my gap year adventure are the most beautiful things.
