What You Need For A Working Holiday In Australia

Posted On 9 August 2018

We had the privilege to catch up with Christianne Risman aka Backpacking Bananas and talked about exactly what you need for a working holiday for when you come to Australia.

On this video we cover everything from:

  • Where To Begin
  • When To Book
  • What Admin You Need Setting Up
  • Which Hostel To Stay At
  • Even Where Is Best To Get A Good Wine

Christianne’s YouTube channel focusses mainly on travelling and covers so many destinations through her firsthand experiences, but addresses issues which you may have whilst you’re travelling, such as loneliness, anxiety and also budgeting.

She gives a true account of what it is like to be a solo female traveller. I would definitely recommend subscribing to her blog if you’re looking at travelling in the future and give her a follow on her Instagram.

Darryl, who has been working in backpacker and youth travel in Australia since 2011 and helped over 10,000 backpackers to travel across Oz, New Zealand, Fiji and South East Asia, runs and operates the Welcome To Travel: Melbourne 8 Day tour, and is available to give you personal free travel advice over Skype, FaceTime or WhatsApp.
