Self driving cars solve this

It’s called ‘Banana Bunks’ and it’s in Kandy 😊

@@laurwingingit thanks a bunch!

@@Danger_Mouse_00 haha I never knew that!

Nope - as long as it’s a UK licence. Only licences that aren’t in English need to be translated. You can drive on your UK licence for the first 3 months you’re in Australia, so you don’t need to convert it starlight away

It will depend which state you do it in, but in NSW I just went to a service centre with my passport, uk licence and proof of address in Australia and they do it there for you. They take your picture and you pay for the licence and then it’s done 🥰

@@laurwingingit ah thank you! the only issue we’d still have is we want to get a car/van to travel straight from being in a hostel so i’m not sure how it would work with the information cross over since we’d need the proof of address and stuff wouldn’t we? so much to think about haha!

Ahh I totally get you! Honestly I wouldn’t worry too much, soo many people will have done the same thing over the years! I’d go to a service centre when you arrive and just explain the situation to them - Aussie people are some of the most helpful people I’ve experienced, especially when they hear your accent 🤍 alternatively the working holiday groups on FB might be able to help but sometimes I find they give confusing / conflicting advice

Another alternative would be to buy a car/van and drive on your current licence until you’ve met people who’s address you can use when you come to convert the licence

Thank you so much ☺️

Omg no way! I think it’s kind of on par with the UK it’s just we don’t pay Rego or duty but we pay yearly MOT and road tax instead

Yeah that makes sense!!

Honestly I don’t know why they didn’t accept certain things 😂 it was the proof of address I struggled with the most but luckily the lady was so helpful!

Thanks for watching!

@@freshtayasiri7283 it really depends on what I can do visa wise! I can use my current visa (417) until September 2026. After then I’d need to look into sponsorship or student visas I think!

Thank you for watching!

thank you so much for watching! Depends what you want to do - hospitality is very well paid compared to home and gives you the flexibility of travel and work. If you're looking for something more 9-5 / corporate, Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne will be easier places to find work, and recruitment agencies are a bigggg thing here - you definitely want to be reaching out to as many recruiters as possible :)

@@Ironz89 I’m not 100%c but I’m pretty sure, as long as you’re already in Aus & on your first working holiday visa when you’re 35, you can apply for your second visa before you turn 36 and still get the whole second year. I’d recommend joining some of the working holiday Australia Facebook groups and searching/asking in there as I’ve definitely seen people ask this question and get answers before! 😊

Hey! Not sure what you mean? :) you can still do the working holiday if you have your own business / freelance - you just need an Australian Business Number (ABN) 😊 I extended my visa last month and it received in 5 mins 🎉

haha I used to judge Aussies for snags too

For the 417 visa, you have a year to enter the country from the date your visa is granted 😊

Hi for german age limit is 18to 30 but now i am 29 year old if i get now my visa after 2 year can i still apply for third year visa when i am 32or i have to leave country

@@LuqmanMuvashar You wouldn't be able to apply for any visa after you turn 31. So you'd need to be on your 2nd visa + applying for your third when you're 30 to be able to get the third year - hope that helps!

Yes it was! Visa on arrival for uk passports ☺️

It’s amazing 🤩

🤣🤣 I actually haven’t been to the Melbourne one yet

@@laurwingingityou have to go!! have u been to melbourne before tho? :D

@@grandmabob1 yep twice 🤣🤣

@@laurwingingityasss 💅 I’ve lived there my whole life hehe its pretty cool

Thanks so much Lloyd! Very happy to be here 😁

Thank you so much! It’s Hayes street beach - right by the ferry stop in Neutral bay 😊

I’m on a UK passport so I no longer have to do remote work to qualify for my second visa. However, I have friends (US, European, etc) who have done remote work and loved it! Instead of farm work they did hospitality work in regional areas and ended up saving sooo much money and having a really nice time 😊 thanks so much for your nice comment - I love all the plants too

For quality of life, affordability, weather, things to do and the nature - I prefer Australia! The downsides are how far it is from family and friends and cost of travelling abroad from here 🥹

@@laurwingingit for nature???? I mean beaches are great but australia is a gigantic desert whereas UK is consistently green!

@@randomquestions7741 haha no I totally get that! I think for me it kinda goes with the weather and general “outdoorsy” lifestyle here. When I lived in the Uk (London) I never got out in nature - it always felt like a day trip away (or it was raining so the weather put me off)

@@randomquestions7741 put that into perspective the UK would fit just into the state of NSW 4 times and England would fit in Australia 59 times. We have areas of greenery bigger than your whole country we also have deserts, semi arid land, savanahs, lush tropical and sub tropical rainforrest even alpine regions with ski resorts. We are grey nomads and love travelling through them all in our 4WD towing a caravan especially love being in the outback regions (not in summer though) we avoid the touristy coastal areas and big cities..

@@Davo-i1s size of country and consistency is different! I'm not from the UK, I'm from india , it's a shithole here, I rather like UK england or Australia

@@NicksTravelAdventures thanks for watching Nick! It’s soo cool, I love it. Definitely living the Aussie dream

@@vickicurrie7109 thanks so much for watching!! I am yes 😊

Oh wow that sounds amazing! I’ll definitely go back again so will be sure to remember this 😊

Hey girl thanks so much for your comment I really appreciate it! 🤍 I loved living in Sydney but I’ve actually just moved to the Gold Coast! I haven’t been to Brisbane yet but I do hear lots of amazing things about it. One thing I’ll say about Sydney is it actually rains a LOT 😂💀 so if you’re coming to Aus to escape crap weather then I’d probably go Queensland haha xx

so exciting!! The visa is linked to your passport so you can literally just go through immigration scanning your passport :) You can print the visa / have it handy on your phone in case but they shouldn't ask to see it in Australia - maybe at your departure airport though

@@ragged218 I’m on the working holiday visa 🙏🏼

Thank you! Will do! 🥰

Thank you! It’s definitely a cozy space now 🥰 haha really? I haven’t heard that before!

Yes I have a working holiday visa :)

Omg yay you will have the best time! How exciting ☺️ I’ll definitely upload a part two soon

@@trekkie-cat Australia is a British colony look at the flag British rule majority that live there trace their history back to England and Ireland that is a fact , Australia belongs to the idignoeus Aborigines.

@@Wayne-fn1sw I was born here. I am Australian. We haven't been a colony for a very long time.

@@trekkie-cat Well the Australian flag is under the British and you will never be Australian your skin colour makes you think you belong but the land belongs to the Aborigines.

Yeah I thought the same! My American friends have had to wait a lot longer

Part of the commonwealth

Yay exciting!! DM me 🥰

Thank you for watching and for your comment! I will happily do a part 2 :)

Thank you for watching 🥰 I’m glad you enjoyed it

It’s such a beautiful area, I loved it ❤

They are!

It really is!

Thanks!

Glad you enjoyed it!
