<p>Ok, it's not really about a gap year. In Germany, you can do either one year of military or social service. I decided to do the latter one. Now, most people just stay in Germany. I have, however, the option to go to Guatemala. I am unsure, though, if this will be the right decision. Medical and safety issues are pretty problematic, my parents are really worried.</p>
<p>What would you do? I mean, staying here in Germany would be ok, but it wouldn't be great. Guatemala stands for something totally new, a life-time experience. Otherwise, it seems to be pretty dangerous and maybe I won't like it that much after all.
Help me out ;)</p>
