Gap Year Diaries
Two best friends relive their ’Gap Year’ travelling the world in 2010, by re-reading and reflecting on the hilariously misguided blog diary they kept along the way. Just prior to smart-phones and social media taking over our travel habits, these two wide-eyed 18 year olds set off with nothing but digital cameras and a trusty blog to document their trip. From lost passports to inaccessible bank accounts, jumping out of planes and into gorges, this is a nostalgic exploration of first-time travel and all its hilarious twists and turns.

In this first episode of series 3, Rachel and Emily recount their fraught and anxiety inducing border crossing from Peru to Chile, featuring an unnerving and frantic taxi driver, and entire three-generation Peruvian family. We also hear of their first night in the border city of Arica, which they spend high on Nutella and fermented pineapple, being rampantly annoying to fellow hostel guests.
