Pilon Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 How old are you? If you are young enough, you can always get the Working Holiday Visa for Australia - it doesn't neccessarily mean you have to live in hostels and get drunk all the time. I'm doing temp work in Australia at the minute. You can always find work in the big cities, i.e. Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne, then spend some of your free time travelling around the country.

Jules1000 Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 What about working in the travel industry...... If you're good in an office you could always apply to do admin work in the overseas destination office of one of the large travel companies. I work in a travel office in Greece and could never go back to the 9-6 of British office work. Plus your days of can be spent sunbathing, Plus you get free accommodation, Plus there are plenty of other people doing the same thing so the the potention of a good social life is great... are you sold yet ???
