OVC
Representative – Elmirique Smit
My journey with OVC started when I applied for the Au pair Netherlands program in 2011 and lived with a wonderful family in Delft, Zuid-Holland for 1 year. During this time I travelled to Belgium, Italy, France, and Germany and extensively within the Netherlands itself. I came back to South Africa in Sept 2012 and realized that travelling is my passion and to help other young travel-minded people like you to take the first step and travel abroad and discover what the world has to offer.
Take the first step, apply for our awesome programs and make the world your oyster, you only live once!
“Fill your life with adventures, not things. Have stories to tell, not stuff to show”
We have 16 offices across South Africa and all our OVC team members are seasonal travellers, expertise in their fields and we live and breathe the OVC DNA which is to Go and Grow and to share our personal experience of travelling and to help and guide you in finding the best gap year program abroad.
