Hey lostat25, nah your age isn't relevant, I'm looking at the same sort of adventure, I'm four years older but I really don't have much to stick around for in the UK. Where did you have in mind for a starting point for journey?

I need a WHV buddy for next year sometime?!
LostSoul replied to jessicagrunner's topic in Visitor Visas
Hey, where I stand right now I could probably leave tomorrow if I wanted to, I'm 29 at the end of March and truth be told have little to remain here for. Plan for me would be to fly to either Sydney or Perth, hopefully find some work pretty soon after arriving. Never travelled anywhere alone before really so this would be hugely out of comfort zone! -

Working Holiday in Australia, do or don't I, need serious advice!

Thanks for the quick reply. I had a total thyroidectomy some years ago, so it was a concern to know that. Could take about three months worth but beyond that I think they expire so it wouldn't be an immediate problem but one that it need to see into rather sharpish. :-) -

Another thing worth noting is I need to take thyroxine (or else I die!), I'm assuming with being a first world nation it's probably easy enough to come by in Australia? -

I'm in the same boat as a couple of the guys on this thread, late twenties and thinking of heading over to Oz alone sometime in the not too distant future. Where all you guys thinking of going might I ask? If I do decide to go it'll be East coast somewhere. -

Weirdly enough flights to Sydney seem the easiest to find and oddly the cheapest. Even though it's pretty much thebairport furthest from here, not counting Hobart in Tasmania of course. Have you been there before? -

Just need to be sure if I do, I do it for the right reasons and not just to leave for the sake of leaving. How on Earth do you know? Where about you planning on going then? -

For a date, not 100% sure, there was a chance I was going to go with my 'friend' but am pretty sure that isn't going to happen, so June - July I'd guess as a ballpark date with Sydney being the likely flight destination. -

Thanks ScottishStacey, haven't had much of a chance to look through previous threads yet. Never had this kinda thoughts before, about travelling before, but I guess that is down to not enough realising that life is very much finite! But it looks to be an amazing place with some stunning sights to see. -

Thanks for the reply wakeboard, I'm kinda a bit disappointed it's taken me this long to realise that this is an option. Saving shouldn't be too hard, hell selling me car would more than cover the recommended amount to take with you. How hard is work to find out there? Would be thinking Sydney and travel up east coast, if I do go I'd like to get the 88 days agricultural work for second year. Also your adventure sounds like it was worth it! Wellers and Whitehead, yeah it looks like an incredible country and opportunity. I do tend to overthink things a lot and like I said, the biggest fear is being there solo really. -
Hello, just joined this forum. A little about me first, I'm from North East England, I'm currently 28 years old and am in a transitional period in life, I'm debating heading to Australia sometime mid-year on a one year working visa. I don't feel comfortable where I am and barring friends and family I have nothing at all keeping me here. I could get the visa, book flights and get travel insurance and stuff right now. Main reasons for this are I don't like my job and am looking to leave it anyway, and until two years ago was in a very long term relationship (eleven years) and since then I've struggled to find a place I feel as though I belong. Never really travelled much, been few places around Europe but never solo so there is a lot of apprehension. Three months ago I got talking to some girl whose a friend of some friends and I knew from day one she was embarking on this kind of trip, I'm pretty sure we're not gonna see eachother anymore but I do like the idea of going somewhere new, even though the thought of heading to Australia alone is a daunting one, I'm not a solitary person by nature and that is one of the biggest issues for me. Anyone with any advice, real life experience in this would be really welcomed.
