Cerberus1 Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 Tourism Australia is running an online campaign at the moment, promoting locations around Australia in short online videos, featuring, backpackers, tour guides etc to lure more young people Down Under to work and play. The Tourism Australia campaign, 30 days in Oz, consists of 30 online videos, each following someone different in locations around Australia, with each demonstrating in 60 seconds why "there's nothing like Australia for young travellers." Tourism Australia managing director Andrew McEvoy said the campaign would promote the Working Holiday Visa and encourage young people to consider Australia as a place to work or travel, particularly those leaving school or on a Gap Year. "One of Tourism Australia's objectives is to get more young people to holiday in Australia. These travellers often become lifelong advocates, influencing friends and family of all ages to holiday in Australia and returning themselves later in life," he said. "We also know from research that many of these visitors are backpackers, who spend more time travelling and explore more of Australia than other travellers, which is one of the reasons the youth market is such an important one for us."

Harpodom Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 it must be bad if Oz is trying to enourage young backpackers to come here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supa Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 Peronally I think that having a DECENT BLOODY EXCHANGE RATE would get more visitors/settlers to go to Aus than any campaign! Thanks very much for the fab post though. Off for a lie down now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
