Or are they still on the loose, travelling and playing with life? Thinking about settling down?

Experience vouchers are popular for 30th birthdays, often the V8 drives, but there is a wide range to suit all sorts of tastes – everything from pamper, to cooking classes, getaways, horseriding, sailing, skydiving, bungy jumping and so on. If you choose an experience in Australia, be careful to choose one in the location of the recipient. Most experiences are in the capital cities.
Experience companies also offer general vouchers so you don’t have to decide what they’d like, and hampers as “experiences” these days for those people who receive an experience voucher but don’t want to do any of the activities in their local area.
