For those of you who are fed up with the unpredictable British summer, now is the perfect time to escape and jet off to an exotic destination.

BUNAC's work and volunteer opportunities include taking any type of ski season job on a working holiday in Canada, helping out on a organic farm deep in The Land of the Long White Cloud (i.e. New Zealand) or teaching street children in South America. To use an aussie term, be sure to 'have a squiz' at our destination of the month, Work Australia.

As the 2009 summer camp season comes to an end and BUNACers are exploring the wonders of the States, we in the London office are busy preparing for Summer Camp USA 2010!

Applications are now open, so if you think you have what it takes to spend up to 9 weeks coaching anything from water skiing to rock climbing to kids aged 6 - 16, then apply online today! Be inspired by Rob's highlights from camp in his BUNAC Experiences story.

September winner: Oscar, Volunteer USA

Our destination of the month, Work Australia, is just hotting up! Now is your chance to escape the British winter and enter the Australian summertime! BUNAC's Work Australia participants who are 'down under' at the moment, have been taking full advantage of IEP's (BUNAC’s partner) social events. Katy emailed to tell us about the whale watching trip that IEP organised in Sydney harbour. Read all about it on BUNAC Experiences.

If South East Asia is at the top of your 'Places to visit' list, have you considered BUNAC's Volunteer Cambodia programme? Read all about Hilary's eye opening time taking Cambodian children out for their first ride on an escalator!

Current BUNAC volunteers are not only experiencing Cambodia at the perfect time of year - it's after the rainy season, but not scorching hot - but will also take part in the annual 'Bon Om Touk' or the Water and Moon Festival. Places are still available for our November departure, so check out BUNAC Volunteer for more info and advice.

Want to work in a world-class theme park? Sell ice creams by the beach? Serve food in a real American diner? Or how about an internship in one of New York's famous fashion houses or Brooklyn courts? That's just what hundreds of students have been doing this summer whilst on Work America, experiencing the real USA.

Grab the opportunity to work in almost any job, anywhere in the States and register your interest for Work America 2010 now!

Calling all extreme sports enthusiasts! Vicki, from BUNAC's London office flew over to Whistler to catch up with Work Canada participant Dan, who is currently working as a mountain bike instructor. As a lifelong extreme sports lover, it is Dan’s dream come true to work at the daddy of all mountain bike parks: Whistler Blackcomb. Taking full advantage of all outdoor activities Whistler has to offer, Dan zip trekked 200ft over the mountains between Whistler and Blackcomb at 80km/ph! Check out Dan's photo on BUNAC Experiences.
