girls beware of dodgy rural farm owners who are always looking out to prey on females. very high level for sexual assault and harassment esp u are in regional and rural farm areas.
but if u play it well, u will enjoy the full holiday working period in here AUS.
1 couple we know, travels around AUS in season. Like Tassie cherries,strawberries seasons, they go Tassie. then switch QLD, NT..etc
I saw their payslips once when they at a lamb abbatoir.

i think winter in TAS totally no job, all the backpackers go up north or QLD.
for a fact, the new season picking for apples has began. unfortunately i hv no direct contacts for u, but do have a own search on apple/oranges orchards in Murray river regionI have no idea, I just got my visa and not rushing to go over. Anyway, I have one year to enter the country . I plan to do some travelling in Africa or Europe before heading over to earn some money.
And I don't think I want to do any jobs related to cafe because I don't plan to stay in a city!

17 AUD after tax?
Anyway no worries, I am not in a rush to go there anyway, just to get some basic info.
Thanks anyway!
Anybody got their VISAs approved? Just got my approval and looking for anyone to plan or discuss together!
Hey Henrik, looking to apply for the Aussie WHV, was wondering do you pay the 400+ visa fee regardless? Like even if u dont get in?
You have to pay during application, I don't think they refund even if you fail..
For a lot of visas in Australia, you don't get a refund if you fail. It helps make sure people are only applying when they are eligible and have the required documentation. A bit like a filtering tool.
