From Austria to Australia

[Emma]

Hey

I am from Austria and even if Australia has almost the same name, it seems that there is no bilateral agreement or something between the two countries...

So, is there a possibility to have a great time in Australia anyway? I mean what about the working,the surf course and the buying of a vehicle and so on.
does anybody know something about that?
I'm a bit desperate since I found out that austrians cannot get the working holiday visa...

greetings

Hey Emma!
I'm also from Austria and i'm planning to go in august for 6 months to australia, you are right for ur its not possible to get the working travel visa. the only chance to work (legally ) is to make a student visa. then you can work 20 hrs. but you also need to go to a school to get it.
otherwise you can apply for a long-stay visa for australia. with this you can stay 3-6 months as a tourist! i will apply for this visa! 6 months are the longest we can stay. maybe longer if you apply for an extension direct in aust.

when you wanna go there? and where are you exactly from ??

greetings
