Join our communities
Get involved in a growing community of career break travellers and remote workers from around the world and share your stories, ideas and experiences.
Career Gappers began as a blog, but now we want to build a community around it, and we’d love you to be a part of it! If you are passionate about taking time off work to travel, or using your remote working flexibility to visit new places, then we want to help connect you with likeminded people.
Our workations community on Facebook is a place where you can share ideas and experiences with other people who travel while working remotely. If you’re more interested in career breaks and sabbaticals, then join our travel career break group on LinkedIn.
You can also read our series of interviews with career break travellers below. Do you have an inspiring story to tell too? Please get in touch and let us know – we’d love to feature you on the blog.
