Surprising how many European people say Australia can be cold. They see the place as a great big tropical island. They miss the obvious. Australia is the size of Europe. The top half (Tropic of Capricorn) is in the tropical zone and is warm to very warm. The bottom half is subtemperate and can get cold in winter particularly the further south you go. There are mountains and snow fields in NSW and Victoria. Tasmania is in the Southern Ocean. Next stop Antarctica. So lots of different temperature possibilities. Just check the geography before you come.
you prolly dont care but if you're stoned like me during the covid times then you can stream all the new movies and series on Instaflixxer. Been streaming with my gf for the last days xD
I have been to Australia before during the winter months and it does certainly tend to get cold in the winter particularly in NSW and Victoria. I am interested in researching more on whether I should move down under. You have given good food for thought on things I should do before moving. Thanks see you soon.
This video was very helpful and informative, recently I have had the idea of moving to Australia, I could not say why, I have never had the opportunity to go and visit, so I plan to go on holiday there and or perhaps try the working holiday before I do properly think about moving out there. So thank you for the video!
Just starting to formulate a plan to move out there with my son. Watched hours of videos and this is by far the best one yet. Ive watched a few of your videos now, you have a great 'straight to the point' no fuss style that I hope carries on througj your other videos. Thank you for this upload and I hope you keep it up (*another tips on moving video would be brilliant*) ❤
@@Fantabbydozy2608 I sometimes feel like that with english people though (being welsh 🤣 ) But jokes aside, i really appreciate your response and thank you for your honesty of your experience. I have always looked at things through rose tinded glasses and have been called "overly optimistic" many times (which i sometimes agree with) so having a few years to plan and gather info and as many hints, tips and warnings are soo important. Ive heard that the higher wages over there makes up for the more expensive items?
@@Fantabbydozy2608 please dont apologise ❤ its not all about the pleasantries as i find that can be more off putting that the negatives,lol Im really interested in your experiences with the personality/social contrasts. I guy i met a few weeks ago said "he hated it as *theres no culture*, art etc" and didnt really appreciate how rich U.K culture was until he spent some time in Australia. I initially found it quite harsh and thought he was being a pretentious cock 🤣 But, these are his feelings and experiences. Plus, i have no reference to draw from so again, i really appreciate your comments and encourage you to disclose more :-)
@@Fantabbydozy2608 oh wow, yes road trips are what we're planning on doing, more for the natural beauty spots along the way. Starting at the Gold coast and eventualy ending up in Adelaide (or vice versa) plan is to take advantage of the free camping with the odd hotel for the first few months. The Marree hotel in the outback, its 7.5 hours from adelaide (in the middle of nowhere 🤣) but pays $900 dollers a week, free acomodation with evening meal provided.... figured we'd save quite a lot at this place. I have been told that Sydney is crazy expensive to live (but probably has more of the comforts we are used to in the U.K) You have mentioned that your husband is on what would be £68k Just wonder what it is he does for a living over there? :-)
@@Fantabbydozy2608 yes, thats another thing thst keeps cropping up is people feel isolated there. I dont have any family except for my son and most friends ive had have all moved away,lol Lost my Job after lockdown so I too have been skint and isolated 🤣 Brexit is starting to make things more expensive here too but nothing like the prices there... being a chef i Love the variety we have here, basicslly anything we can imagine and more is available. So im gonna struggle with this for sure. Also, whats your WiFi like? 🤣
I'm scared to fly out straight away to do farm work as a solo travel because of the amount of horror stories of terrible employers so gonna go to Melbourne first and suss it out
Great information in this video 👍 me and my girlfriend are moving to Sydney in august from Ireland, we were thinking about the farm work straight away as u said, but the only thing is she has braces and we’re looking to move to a orthodontist over there and she would have to go every few weeks, so if we went farming it’s probably away out and be hard to make that work, She’s a qualified hairdresser and I’m a qualified plumber would u say we could take our chances with getting sponsored, or any advice on what to do? Thanks 😊
Loved this video! did you have to have a job in place over there before applying for your woking holiday visa? Me and my other half are looking to move to Australia in the next 5 months whilst we save more. We have heard about farm work and been told that they pay for your food accommodation and you get a wage each month/week x
No you can just get a job once you’re over here- that’s what I did! I haven’t done farm work but I think that’s only some farms that do that, you may have to buy food for some places :) x
@@MillieWYT Thank you for your help! Your videos are giving me some great tips! Oh okay I will bare that in mind when looking for an agricultural job X
@Holly J Don't even need to do farm work. There are lots of restaurants in Sydney looking for kitchen hand/waiters. Businesses could not get the workers because the borders are closed.
Um I think this is a sign? I’ve been wanting to move from the UK to Australia and I’ve recently been diagnosed with rosacea, the same condition you have🤔
I'm between Melbourne, Sydney, and Adelaide. Young professional in early 20s & my job allows me to work remotely (anywhere). How plausible is relocating to Aussie Land in today's climate? Genuinely asking. Hoping to make the move by the end of this year or early 2022.
As soon as the boarders are open is still such a good idea to move out here I personally think - the job market is still really good over here lots of opportunities if you did need to look for work! I personally would recommend either Melbourne or Sydney - I visited Adelaide and it’s beautiful but not as busy with things to do etc compared to the other two :)
Very interesting, what way did you go about getting a place to live over there? Did you call landlords before you left in advance or what? Please reply as me and my friend are interested
I was born in Australia Sydney, and I will say i think it’s a good country, I don’t think it’s the best country ever, but it’s good. The people here are usually pretty Friendly, but to all the people who are thinking of moving here, just watch out for the racist bogans. But besides that everyone else is pretty friendly
@@MillieWYT probably want to have a holiday for the first month as its gonna take a lot of hard work to get us there. Then im taking your advice and going to do the farm work. Ive seen a Job post for the Marree Hotel that includes farm work (and cheffing) $900 a week, free accom an food. So we could potentially keep all we earn. (Also, are these types of Jobs hard to come by?)
No you can work on a farm whenever you want it’s just a requirement when you are on a working holiday visa if you want to stay for a second or third year :)
When a company sponsors you, it means a few things 1. Your visa changes to a sponsorship visa 2. You have to work for the company that sponsored you 3. Depending on the sponsorship you have to stay with the company for 2 or 4 years. It’s a great way to stay in Australia long term but it’s tricky to find sponsorship in certain industries :)
@@MillieWYT im a Professionally qualified chef of 17years and have my BA HONS in youth and community studies (youth worker) would these be desirable down there?
Weird how you have to do farm work when the other countries that.have reciprocal agreements don't set farm work as a requirement. Yesh it gets cold down south particularly.
Canberra, Melbourne, Tasmania and south NSW have cold winters, and older houses aren’t very well designed for the cold. If you’re thinking of moving perhaps get the weather app for the city you’re interested in and check out the daily temperatures in winter and summer so you can see the extremes.
We are not other countries. We have a shortage of farm workers and why not use backpackers? It's sensible. You also get an insight into another world you probably don't normally get exposed to. If you end up working say on a mango or banana farm, you'll have better tan than splayed put on Bondi ( which, despite our thousands of kilometres of incredible coastline seems to be where all tourists herd thinking they are in Ibiza on a summer break)
Nice Tips Millie, thanks for sharing them - very useful. Can you help/give your best advice with this scenario, me and my gf are looking to come over to Aus Jan 2023 however she has already used up her working holiday visa (I haven't) she works in HR and has a CIPD lv 5 qualification which is recognized in Australia, would she need to get an employer to sponsor her before she comes over and if so honestly how easy is that?

What was your budget to move there and was there any unexpected expenses ?
Um I think this is a sign? I’ve been wanting to move from the UK to Australia and I’ve recently been diagnosed with rosacea, the same condition you have🤔
Haha we’re twinning! Defo a sign 🙌🏼
Sameeee
If you live in the north of Australia it never gets cold.
Isnt it poorer up that end.. like, lack of jobs and just things in general? (Trying to learn)
Yeah I just couldn’t deal with the humidity! I travelling the north for abit and it was beaut

So if you have a qualified profession under your belt do you still have to do the farm work?

The people here are usually pretty Friendly, but to all the people who are thinking of moving here, just watch out for the racist bogans. But besides that everyone else is pretty friendly
Does the farm work act like a normal job with pay or does it just earn you the option for a second year ?
It pays! Some people choose to stay on the farm for much longer than needed (visa requirement wise) as it pays well so you can save a lot :)
Very helpfull video. Thank you
Melbourne where you can watch penguins on the beach, central Australia will get just as cold in the winter.
How much money would you say we'd need to save to take over there with us on a working Visa. (Also planning on getting a car as you have suggested)
Are you planning on travelling for abit first or getting straight into work? :)

Why only farm work? Can you only work in a farm on a holiday work visa? I heard you only mentioned farm work
No you can work on a farm whenever you want it’s just a requirement when you are on a working holiday visa if you want to stay for a second or third year :)
What is "sponsorship" exactly?
When a company sponsors you, it means a few things 1. Your visa changes to a sponsorship visa 2. You have to work for the company that sponsored you 3. Depending on the sponsorship you have to stay with the company for 2 or 4 years. It’s a great way to stay in Australia long term but it’s tricky to find sponsorship in certain industries :)

@@wessley4606 yep 100%! Chef’s and any social work / working with children is a great way to get sponsored

I wonder if they'd sponsor truck drivers?
What if you want to permanently live there? Two years isn’t enough for me 😭
You can look for a job that offers sponsorship for 2 years! That’s the first step to PR if you want to stay long term or evening just 4 years :)
457 visa or PR with skills
Where do you find farm work ?
What are some jobs you can do
What do u mean farm work
Can I move without a working holiday Visa?
Yes there are a number of different visa options which vary depending on what country you’re from :) take a look at the gov.au website
