Next year i really want to travel, but really cant afford it.
The next best idea is to work while i travel to pay off my travelling expenses, i was just wondering if anyone had any experience with working overseas, or if you've got any info that could be helpful
thanks

Sorry can't help you >_> My sister works o/s but that's 'coz her company sent her there for a couple of years.

But I've heard that a lot of ppl after HSC go explore UK and work in random jobs like at a cafe and stuff... but seriously, if you're planning to go UK, be prepared to live in craphole conditions because wages in UK aren't that high yet living costs are.

Figure out where you want to go and then go to their embassy website and see what kind of visa you need.

Then find out what the cost of living is in that country.

After that go an find out what pay your qualifications will get you.

I've got friends who work in the UK went over on a holiday kind of thing and decided to stay there a while. One came back and said he can't wait to finish his study here so he can head back over, he worked as a gardener or something (no not that kind of herb gardener).
