    • @NZPocketGuide
      @NZPocketGuide  6 лет назад

      Oh no! That sucks :( It can be pretty scary to leave security but as people who have done it, we feel like a working holiday is a much more rewarding experience than keeping a full time job. A working holiday is definitely a "lifestyle" choice rather than a "money making" choice.

    Thank you for the helpful information! I have a random question, my boyfriend has both a Spanish and Mexican passport and he would like to apply for the Spanish visa and then the Mexican visa in case the Mexican visa doesn't get accepted. The Mexican visa is slightly better in that it is longer, do you know if it is possible to get accepted for a visa and then cancel and apply for another one? Thanks

    • @NZPocketGuide

    Hi people !
    So I’m into my second year on a WH Visa in Australia . By August 2020 I’ll have around 8,000 bucks AUD . Is this enough to book flight to New Zealand , insurance etc and all the main spending factors . Conversions strike me a bit .

    • @NZPocketGuide
      @NZPocketGuide  4 года назад +1

      1000AUD = 1060NZD so pretty much the same amount. You should have enough money to take a trip to NZ if you take a cheap local insurance (see our tips here -> www.backpackerguide.nz/medical-travel-insurance-for-new-zealand/) and get a good deal on your flight.

You do not need to pass through a company the process is very easy to do directly on the immigration New Zealand website.

    • @NZPocketGuide
      @NZPocketGuide  5 лет назад +1

    I almost fell of my chair when you said that ”nz$5500 + plane ticket is probably ’enough’” never heard anything close to this crazyness. I would say that $3000 is more than enough to arrive with if you plan to shoot straight into the job market.
