Nathan Chilcott

 
Hi,
I’m Nathan, I’m 18 and from Kent. Having just completed my A-levels, I was desperate to get away, travel and explore a new country.India has always appealed to me; it’s intoxicatingly rich history, majestic landscapes and vibrant, dynamic colourful cities. GapGuru designed a perfect five month programme to suit all my interests and gain experience in my desired career, teaching.

Bye for now,
Nathan.
