Hi everyone, I'm a Carpenter by trade and currently sub contract to builders and when possible my own work. I currently have a land cruiser ute, I've been working on to do a touring trip from. What im looking at doing is putting on a alloy canopy for camping(holidays part of the trip) and towing my tool trailer (working part of trip ) and head to
alice springs from there and head up to
Darwin and eventually get to
cape York before the wet season hits . im looking at heading west in late January 2014. ill be dropping off my trailer in
cairns before i go to cape
Question, how hard is it to find work out in remote
places as a tradie? I find the more west you go the less information is available on the internet.
Is accommodation hard to find, and what's a rough price, id be looking at a weekly rental? for a short stay and a month if the work is there.
Would it be a reasonable assumption to assume if i worked half the trip it would pay for the holiday half?
Would love to hear any feed back big or small, especially from any tradie in construction!!
Thanks
