so after corona, I want to start my working holiday in Australia hopefully! I’m just trying to figure out the best time of year to do each part of my plan as I ideally want to do a loop, to avoid internal flights :)
Soooo, my plan is to, in any order, backpack the east coast, road trip the west coast, do my 88 days farm work (hopefully within the first 6 months as I’ve heard people can have issues!), and also work for a few months (I’m thinking Melbourne or sydeny but I’d appreciate any opinions!)
I would try and stick to the north of the country in the winter (may - oct) and then head south for the summer (Nov - April) so you get the best of the weather! For your plans I'd say if you have money right away then do a bit of travelling then you can meet people along the way and find your farmwork together.
I personally loved Sydney and didn't like Melbourne that much, but I also really loved Cairns - i think it just depends on what kind of work you'll be looking for.
I'd say don't plan too much, just figure out which way your headed and follow the seasons around, you can't go wrong!
