Amazing! Its such a great country for travel, Thanks for watching

I done my WHV a few years back when i just hit 31. Absolutely loved it out there. I had to live in Manly to lapup that beach life style. For me its one of the best places in Sydney. Bit too far and expensive for some people but being able to play volley ball, gym, surf plus tons of class coffee shops and food places and bars it was the place to be.

[@DainLuka]

Thanks for watching Stef! It’s a great lifestyle, Manly is great I still need to explore it more 😄

[@gmax2369]

[@Freespeech141]

I loved your video! I don’t see any subsequent videos to see how you settled in. I bet you made friends once you started work. 👍 please keep in touch with this subject.

[@DainLuka]

Thank you 😊 ahh don’t worry I have lots of Aus related videos coming over the next few months !

[@yvonneandbeyond]

Been doing the digital nomad thing for a year(ish) on/off and I've also been looking at the Australia and New Zealand Working Holiday visas! For all the reasons you mentioned, hahaha:p Great seeing this video, thanks for sharing! :) Excited to see your Australia journey.

[@DainLuka]

Thanks for watching, Ah you should definitely do it ! New Zealand is a beautiful country that was my first option but they hadn’t opened borders yet !

[@yvonneandbeyond]

@@DainLuka Maybe you can do NZ after Australia?! I have some friends in NZ/from NZ so I'm seriously looking at it starting ~December. :) Thanks! Also, so sorry about your laptop...a similar thing happened to me a few years back and that really sucked. Best of luck!

[@DainLuka]

@@yvonneandbeyond thank you 😊

Hey, nice video! A question… how did you get your interview?

Do you need qualifications to get this kind of job I want to go but most of the jobs I see are manual labour

[@user-sl1vr3nj8l]

Hello from China. Your video is really useful for English speaking and entertaining🎉🎉🎉

[@DainLuka]

Hello 👋 thanks for watching 😊

[@jameschapman1442]

Im from Sydney and can tell Newtown would be your vibe, close to the city but could be a little cheaper than inner city

[@DainLuka]

I actually ended up living in Newtown/Enmore for 3 months! Loved it, thanks for watching :)

[@williamrussell9341]

Hey, I'm thinking about going to australia on a WHV I was just wondering how easy it is to get into the care feild such as residential child care over in Australia and what the process are (I read somthjbg about a blue card, did you need to get this? And was it easy enough to get, any help is appreciated!!

[@Daytondaily]

You popped up on my YT because I have been doing so much research on the work and holiday visa! I officially decided to go last week! I plan on leaving in February! Any advice is much appreciated! 😄 have fun!

[@DainLuka]

YAY! Your going to love it :) I have lots of Aus videos coming up so hopefully you find them helpful!

[@Daytondaily]

@@DainLuka I’m currently trying to figure out where you are allowed to do hospitality work to extend your visa haha just in case I don’t end up wanting to do farm work for the entire six months lol. If you know anything about stuff like that I’d love to chat! :)

[@DainLuka]

So my understanding is you have to do 88 days to get a second year. I have friends that are doing Hospo in Airlee beach and cairns ! Or going to remote/northern Australia - it’s very difficult to understand the visa rules 😂

[@Daytondaily]

@@DainLuka yeah 3 months of full time work so 88 full days is what I understood haha I just wasn’t sure what areas exactly hospitality was allowed 😅 I’ve heard cairns I just wanted to be sure lol. I’d hate to work for 3-6 months and find out it didn’t count 😂 thank you for the responses! Excited to follow your journey!

[@astriddesrosiers134]

@@Daytondaily Same I plan on leaving in March and hoping to find work in hospitality. I`m having the most trouble on where to start however, I was thinking melbourne and move my way up but still not 100% sure

[@tarahitchen4684]

could you tell me how you found your recruitment agent? Were you applying for jobs and they found your CV?

[@tootifrooti16]

Hey man, gonna do a WHV and interested to know whether you think it’s best to enroll on one of those travel package schemes where they give you a kickstart route / activities pre paid for or do you reckon it’s pretty relaxing in the fact that I can set it all up myself when I’m there with jobs, making friends and Aus bank account etc?

[@DainLuka]

I think they are really good Options but it is pretty easy to do everything yourself !

[@MsLechaperonrouge]

hello! Where did you find your job?

[@goldcoastbloke1330]

Hey mate! Are u still here in OZ? Here in Sydney? Lets meet up!

[@ts-fr3uf]

what camera and cutting program do you use? cool video:))

[@DainLuka]

I use a Sony A7iii + Tamron 17-28 and edit on Final Cut Pro 😊 thanks for watching

[@YuniM-bx1xz]

Thank you for this vlog, I was wondering for how long one is allowed to be working while on holiday visa

[@DainLuka]

1 year unless you extend by doing specified work 😊

[@gageadavis]

How would you recommend getting work? I am probs going to be arriving in Aus in the same position as you, having travelled for 8/10 months so will likely need to get a job ASAP to build up the funds haha. Do you know if farm work etc is easily acquirable? Nervous about arriving in Aus and not getting a job before running out of money :S

[@DainLuka]

Thanks for watching ! I would start looking online and apply there or post in Facebook groups :) most people I know have managed to get work quite easy!

[@annag.966]

Hi Chasing! Thanks for the vid I’m going to Sydney with a WHV on the 1st of Dec…you said you had bad experiences with the hostels, I’m planning to stay in a hostel for the first week, do you have any recommendations? 🙏

[@DainLuka]

Hey Anna Thanks for watching :) enjoy AUS!!! yes in general I love hostels but my first week wasnt great ahah - if your starting in Sydney book Wake up Sydney central I have stayed there many times and I love it!

[@rebeccahagemann230]

Heyy, how is it going in Sydney? Did you find a flat and a job? Is it difficult? I going in April to Sydney and i’m a bit scared.

[@annag.966]

@@rebeccahagemann230 don't know if this was for me or Chasing, anyways, I am doing great in Sydney, I worked from the 2nd day and I found a room for a great price on the 7th day. Right now ppl say there's a housing crisis, prices have gone up, so it's gonna be harder and maybe a little more expensive than expected, but not impossible. Just be prepared to do a lot of inspections maybe...I arrived in summer so it was a little harder, it should be easier in April. If you work hard nothing is impossible here...actually I'd say is far easier than Europe...Good luck!

[@rebeccahagemann230]

@@annag.966 Thank you for your answer! That sounds really good, I hope that will be the same for me.

[@carked5707]

wow you have done a lot in a couple of days.

Thanks for watching :)

[@duynguyen9631]

Thank you for the helpful video. I am holding Working Holiday visa and going to be in Sydney in next few weeks. Can I have your recommendation for a cheap but comfy backpacker hostel to stay for a week?

[@DainLuka]

Your welcome ! Thanks for watching - my personal recommendation would be wake up sydney central - I’ve stayed there a few times and really like it !

[@duynguyen9631]

@@DainLuka thank you, I have seen another video that you mentioned the hostel. Really informative and helpful 😄

[@noelmcloughlin6]

Interested to hear what your experience was making new friends over there?

[@DainLuka]

It’s been challenging ! I find in Sydney people tend to start their travel here and leave - social media has been helpful though to find people that have similar interests :)

[@pixelated_perception6649]

@@DainLuka I’m actually moving to Sydney in a few weeks! In my mid 20’s and won’t know many people, now you’ve been there for a bit what’s your social circle like? Trying to judge what the best way to meet people is.

[@DainLuka]

@@pixelated_perception6649 it’s changed a few times already just because people tend to go to Sydney for a month and move on ! I have made a few friends - the Facebook page is good 😊
