Hi Everyone
We are thinking of working our way around Australia. Is there anyone out there who has done and can recommend it? I am aware of the Work About Australia organisation but I want to hear some real experiences before I opt out of the corporate life. Having said that anyything has to be better. Kids are gone, well almost. One to go but he will move on soon and we cant see any reason why not to do it.

Any Thoughts

You may want to get a copy of a booklet called Harvest Trail - it can be ordered by your local centrelink I think.It's got all the places in a Australia and a calendar of the times when harvest work is available - also has contact details . It could be accessed by the AJS site too but you might want a hard copy to take with you. If your're not interested in this type of work them its of little use to you. Good luck we did it for 3 years over 25 years ago.
