Can I take one weeks worth extra of pill

Question

Asked for Female, 19 Years

I am on the contraceptive pill and I have took 3 packs back to back already so far and I'm going on holiday on Monday which is where I am due to take my last pill in the pack and I was wondering if I could continue taking another pack for a few more days so I don't come on my period?
