Member	Working Visa/Working Abroad
missrani Oldschool CVer	4/10/2008 2:19:00 PM Has anyone does this and want to share their experiences...? I've been considering it for quite some time and I have a feeling it's going to happen, sooner rather than later. I have a pretty good job, am financially secure but I'm not afraid to let this go and go off and work elsewhere for a bit and then come back. I wanna know about peoples' experiences who have done this and what I should know before I go ahead and make my dream come to a reality.

_Juggy_ Venue Owner	4/10/2008 2:37:00 PM so youre going to australia after all? good for you
missrani Oldschool CVer	4/10/2008 2:45:00 PM I most likely am... I've been wanting to go for a while now and now that my situation has changed, I can pursue my own investments. Only thing is, it's fall in the South/East parts of Australia and that's where I want to be... but I'm okay with going in the cool weather and waiting for the warmth of the sunshine.

_Tarzan_ Member	4/10/2008 4:03:00 PM what've you got against asutralia?
missrani Oldschool CVer	4/10/2008 6:25:00 PM Hey, I can get my tikka masala stuffed out here.. why do I need to go to India for that...? I am looking for some valid input from those who have travelled/worked abroad... I've done my research for getting ahold of the proper documentation and can take care of all that in a matter of time but I want to hear about personal experiences from those who have actually done this.
missrani Oldschool CVer	4/13/2008 6:33:00 PM Didn't Pixie work abroad in Europe...? Holla!
cest_tu Member	4/14/2008 9:26:00 AM I went to Australia on a working holiday visa when I was 18. I loved every moment of it but hardly worked because the beach was just too tempting.I travelled the east coast but made Surfers Paradise my base.

Punjabulous Member	10/4/2008 4:59:00 PM a buddy of mine went to work in Japan, and never came back!
cest_tu Member	10/5/2008 1:26:00 PM When do you go!? My little sister has been there for the last month and it's been 27 everyday!!
missrani Oldschool CVer	10/5/2008 5:23:00 PM Soon, Paul but it doesn't feel like soon enough! I have a feeling I'm not going to want to come back once I get out there... has anyone ever had that feeling within their being where you just know you are destined for something...? I'm feeling it right now. I have that feeling that once I get on the board, I'm done.
Inquisitor Member	10/8/2008 10:07:00 AM Do it before you get too old ** some working holiday visas have age limits. I've had good experiences but some countries are less friendly to foreigners than we are here particularly to those that are working.
cest_tu Member	10/8/2008 3:41:00 PM I know that I will abroad one day. I have always wanted to live somewhere a bit warmer like Australia or Asia, I just have to convince my boyfriend it will be the right thing to do once we have the money to make a proper transition. I know one day it will happen I just have to be patient. For now I'll have to keep taking holidays and preferably month long ones
_stranger_ Dancer	10/8/2008 3:44:00 PM you should probably dump the boyfriend first.
