Thank you so much for this. I've booked a flight for January 2021 - This is completely out of my comfort zone, so this has been amazing. I'll definitely watch this again!
This is the most helpful video I have seen! It explains everything I need to know and has really calmed me down. Please can I go backpacking with you 2, you seem so nice! Can't wait for January 2020.
I start my WH in September, I had no idea there was a way for me to apply for a second year on a 462 visa!! This video cleared SO many things up for me & got me more excited to fly out in a few weeks, thank you!
Perfect video! Literally answered every single one of my questions and has made me a lot less nervous! November the 1st is my flight ! I can't wait ! 🇦🇺
This is the Ultimate travel guide for Australia 🇦🇺 I watch all of your video and after watching them I always take something I learn from your videos. Never stop making your travel videos your the best TH-camr hands down. Backpacking bananas for president 2019!!!
This sounds like such a good idea. On my own my parents would probably never let me go anywhere, let alone abroad but if it's a working holiday and I'm making money while i'm also travelling slowly, it would probably be more acceptable to them. I think I'm about to look into this once I finish my college. I bet it's a good start to one's career and adulthood in general 😄
great video, thank you so much! also heading out mid September, and actually decided to go Melbourne first now. also, puts a smile on my face to see how many people in the comments say they're heading out soon too, gets me so hyped! much love xx
I'm leaving for Australia in September and you've answered a lot of little questions I've had. This will be the biggest trip I've taken -- so far. I'm super looking forward to going, but still I can't help but freak out a little from time to time as I get closer and closer to the date.
That’s completely normal! I still get nervous before I go on big trips and I’ve done it many times before 🙈 Just try to turn the nerves into excitement if you can 😁
If you are travelling out rural you should go with Telstra's phone service because Optus will have zero bars out bush and there is very little public wifi in Aus, especially outside of the major and coastal cities.
Thank you so much for this video! Some great, useful tips! My Husband and I are starting out WH in September and your video gave us lots to think about! Thanks again :) xx
Another option if you have a Trade and want to be self employed you can also apply for an Australian Business Number (ABN) although you don't need one if you are working for an employer. You will need to get your head around paying tax and collecting GST (> 75K/year) but I know people that have done it and do well for themselves.
This has helped me so much I’m looking to visit Australia to see my friends and hopefully move there one day. I’m Just worried about the long flights more than being in aus. Thank you for this ❤️
with transferwise you can set up a virtual australian bank account so you wont require an australian bank account. You provide the employer your bank numbers and they can send you the money as and when. Currently it cant be used for direct debits which is the only downside if you want to set up a phone contract, otherwise it's hasslefree
HONESTLY THE MOST INFORMATIVE VIDEO HERE REGARDING THIS VISA much appreciated 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 I have an Austrian passsport so eligible for the 462 visa. I didn’t even know that hospitality can be another option for getting second year visa, OVER THE MOON 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙈🤣
@@benjaminch97 Probably a bit too cool but it depends on how determined you are. I would not even swim in Sydney in June and its warmer than Melbourne but some people would.
I know this was posted a while ago now but just thought I’d let you know! You can take certain online RSA courses that allow you to get an RSA in multiple states, when I did mine (I live in aus btw) the one course certified me for QLD, SA, VIC, and NT all at once!!
I've already been to australia for about 6 months and heading soon to central america. However I love to watch your videos even if it's not useful (at the moment) for me 😂
I’ve made quite a few in-depth videos about New Zealand already here th-cam.com/play/PL2eiBxCh0xIpWFvbTspwxSevFWpG5x8m1.html I’ll deffo be making a few more in the future as well 😊
Hi guys, I’m looking to travel to Australia in September/October time. I’m wanting to get there and get a job straight away on my 417 visa. Would you recommend just moving city to city new job to job to travel? Or just get one job and travel on weekends etc
Rinky dink backpackers can go on ' livin' it ' with the foreigners-only crop work, with their free transport to and from that. They can have that on their own. I, as an Australian, likes me dole.
Spending more money on hostels in Australia as well as New Zealand is generally a good idea as cheaper hostels tend to get bed bugs, then don't get rid off them properly and then they spread ...
Apart from 3 months farm work what other requirements is there for 2nd year Visa? Because I'm 31 now and I remember reading that you still have to meet the initial working holiday Visa requirements
Would you recommend a hotel for first week, in flying into Sydney ( I know people who are there) week there then off to WA farming then hostel living after that
Would you recommend visiting the country first so you can personally get an idea where you would want to work at or should you just select one city first than start working?
Can someone please help me. I dont know if i have saved enough money! I have saved 3000£ Do you think it will be enough to travel the east coast ? And so i will be in australia for a year. How many months do you think it will last ?
Thank you so much for this. I've booked a flight for January 2021 - This is completely out of my comfort zone, so this has been amazing. I'll definitely watch this again!
how was your journey there?

If you are travelling out rural you should go with Telstra's phone service because Optus will have zero bars out bush and there is very little public wifi in Aus, especially outside of the major and coastal cities.

@@BackpackingBananas Can you still go for a swim in winter in Melbourne ? Going in June too can't wait
@@benjaminch97 Probably a bit too cool but it depends on how determined you are. I would not even swim in Sydney in June and its warmer than Melbourne but some people would.

Are you able to find work before arriving in Australia? Or do employers prefer that you are there in person?
This was so helpful .. thank you!! Off to Oz in December and this has answered so many of my questions 😁
Pleasure! ❤️❤️
Best video by far!
Great advice 👌👌👌
EVERYONE with your super, you are entitled to collect your super when you leave Australia!!
Awesome!, thank you. Gonna leaving for Australia October, my biggest fear is.... Australian Accent, uncommon english for me.
Haha I have been here 8 years and still not got the Australian accent. Where do you fly into Bondan?
great video, really helpful!
This is a great video!! Will you be doing a similar one for New Zealand?
Thanks for the advice! I'm heading to Melbourne may 1st!!
Thank you for this video 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻✈️🌎
Could you do an in depth video about New Zealand? It’s my dream to go there x

I met Darryl in Melbourne! How weird haha
Small world!
looking at doing this myself! ^_^
Can I just ask is it easy to get a visa for second year ? And if you want to go back after that what can you do ? Thank you 🙏🏻
Spending more money on hostels in Australia as well as New Zealand is generally a good idea as cheaper hostels tend to get bed bugs, then don't get rid off them properly and then they spread ...
So gross but so true
You're my favourite TH-camr 💗
😘❤️
Just got my ticket to Melbourne for next month!
Terima kasih from Indonesia... This video is helpful for my upcoming and first WHV.... Wish me luck... 😁

What does 'unlock your phone' mean?
Never say no to opportunities / beers
Would you recommend visiting the country first so you can personally get an idea where you would want to work at or should you just select one city first than start working?
That first option 👌🏼 unless you already know where you wanna work 🤷🏼♀️
Backpacking Bananas Thanks a bunch.
So how long does it take for you to be a resident? 8 years?
I'm going to Az in December 2019. Can't wait. Do you know Where can I buy camper van?
Team Bounce!
Can someone please help me. I dont know if i have saved enough money!
I have saved 3000£
Do you think it will be enough to travel the east coast ?
And so i will be in australia for a year. How many months do you think it will last ?
May I know what is it mean by unlock the phone?
Interesting video! I'm considering doing this! Can a WHV lead to permanent residency in Australia?
Yes it can :)
Hi! What does it mean to have phone unlocked? Sorry I could not quite understand this explanation. :) thank you for informative video, I needed this.
