Hi me and a friend are travelling to Melbourne 2nd November then going to make our way to Sydney 20th Dec for two weeks over Christmas and new year. We're looking at getting regional work after the first part of the trip to get that out the way and had a few questions....

 

any recommendations for places to stay things to see in Melbourne?

any tips for seeing the Sydney fireworks for new year (also my 30th birthday ?)

Where the best area in January to find farm work?

can I just transfer money from my nationwide account into an oz bank account without being charged?

i sound really stupid but what is moneycorp and the whole transferring money thing all about and do I need to set this up?

many thanks in advance

Unless You want to loose a heap of money, you never transfer money overseas from your bank.You will get the lowest rate of exchange.Register with Moneycorp. And take it from there,Google Exchange Rates,And You can Compare the Companies that Transfer money.

Others have given you good advice about transferring money.

 

Why are you going to Melbourne? If it's to visit friends that's fine, but if not then I'm not sure it would be on my "must see" list for a WHV. It's a great place to LIVE, but it doesn't have a lot of tourist sights to see IMO.

 

If you want to see the fireworks in Sydney, then you need to book your accommodation NOW. Everything gets extremely booked up around Christmas and New Year - hotels double their prices at least.
