I absolutely love this post. I spent 3 years living abroad in South Korea working and traveling, and it only took me 5 weeks to come back and find a job even in the worst recession ever. You are 100% correct that people are much more impressed that you went abroad. And that living abroad, actually does have very mundane moments – but even in the mundane-ness of it all, it is still very exciting. Afterall, you’re sleeping away your weekend in a foreign country. haha.

Thanks Rebecca! How was it finding a place to live in Australia? What city were you in?

Hey, nice post IEP twittered it (which is the Australian version of BUNAC and SWAP). I’ve had a look at your other blog posts and they are very good. I’m planning on doing a working holiday in Canada and can’t wait!

I have done both the NZ and Australia visas, so please let me know if you have any questions on either (esp. NZ, I LOVED! NZ:-))

Great blog!

That’s great! I’ve considered the Australia program myself, so I will be excited to see how your adventures play out!

Great post (both parts). I am in the second part of the application process for BUNAC Australia. I originally wanted to go to London, but for some of the reasons you’ve stated, I opted for more flexible Australia. I have a 12-month visa. Thank you so much for all of the insight!
