Moving to the UK to live, work and travel has become something of a tradition for young Australians but over the last few years there has been a number of other countries open their arms to allow Aussies to work, live & experience their countries. Working in another country is of course full of challenges, some exciting and some, well…challenging!

Volunteering for many is the new adventure travel and you can be teaching English in the interior of China, building a well in Zambia, saving the orang-utans in Sumatra or working in an orphanage in Cambodia

Possibly one of the least enjoyable tasks of going to work overseas is wading through websites and long winded leaflets. Understanding more about your destination country and city is perhaps the most logical starting point to any research and preparation, ideally carry this out before anything else. It really is common sense and courtesy to learn a little about the country and city that is going to be your home for the foreseeable future.

At  the Adventure Travel & Backpackers Expos in Sydney, Melbourne or Brisbane you can talk to the experts in person who have the best, latest and up to date information.
