I got a job at the waterpark, Wet n' Wild and Tyler got a job at Sea World. It's sort of fluke that we both ended up at amusement parks, but for the pay you get as a temporary is actually more than the full-timers made and definitely beats minimum wage here in Canada ANY day.<br /><br />Hope you can find work in engineering, but just apply to anything and everything. I can't even remember how many jobs I applied to, to get the one. It was tough and scary. We luckily had brought a decent amount of money to start, and if it weren't for that, we might have been on a plane home as soon as we got there!<br /><br />We got our rental through an agent. We actually ended up paying a bit to get out of our lease early, just so we could start traveling sooner. We lived the highlife while we were there, and I would suggest not doing that. It's one thing to have a nice apartment, but it's not worth it, since it's only temporary. <br /><br />I hope this helps, but seriously...anymore questions, email me!!!!Char @ Nutritiously Fithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04192472342784686640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5010058478099924938.post-83818094938163543512012-02-26T10:11:06.896-05:002012-02-26T10:11:06.896-05:00You still have 18 weeks to make it happen! hahahaYou still have 18 weeks to make it happen! hahahaChar @ Nutritiously Fithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04192472342784686640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5010058478099924938.post-88457789817427617692012-02-26T09:52:34.258-05:002012-02-26T09:52:34.258-05:00My fiance and I plan on taking an extended working...My fiance and I plan on taking an extended working trip to Australia in the next three years (after we pay off his student loans). We want to take advantage of special work visas they have for Queen's engineering grads.<br /><br />We are wondering how you found work/what type of work did you do? How did you find a place to live? We don't mind doing non-engineering work, we just need something to help pay the bills!Lilinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5010058478099924938.post-36082881169819581262012-02-26T00:19:08.367-05:002012-02-26T00:19:08.367-05:001.)
