moving overseas? PDF Print E-mail
Written by Chris Dowding   

Ever thought of moving to the Emerald Isle or some other country?

Moving to a new country was exciting, fun and one of the greatest experiences of my life. It was also demanding. I faced every emotion I'd ever known, and then some.

Of course, it was totally worth it.

 

working holiday visa

This is the visa that Kerryn and I obtained, to work in Ireland. The rules are a bit different for each country, but the idea is that younger people supplement the cost of their holiday in a particular country, through incidental employment.

There are a number of countries that participate in this program (the number seems to be increasing all the time).

Also check out "working holiday visa" on the immigration department website for your target country.
