Hey.
Hi,
Are you looking at doing seasonal work to gain a visa or is this for some money??
Seasonal work doesn't pay all that, its a very physical job. i done pruning and it paid something like 10p per vine. Apricot thining it started as £7 per tree but then they lowered it. some people get lucky, depends on your employers really. packing in a factory is good money but you work flat out and when i was out there these positions were always filled and they usually give these jobs to women.
Having said that seasonal work is an experience, i had the best time of my life doing that, met a great group of people, we were together for 3 months. Was also my first time travelling. i was doing it not for the money but to gain my 2nd years visa.
If your staying in hostels i personally prefer the smaller hostels as i found i met more people, the main city hostels are full of people coming and going all the time, the smaller hostels in smaller towns people tend to stay for a bit and you really get to know them.
Money wise, it is hard to say, i would say look at the hostels and see what they are charging to get a rough guide of your rent. i'm assuming your staying in hostels. food is really cheap i found. then you will need to look into what activities etc you are thinking of doing. it can add up.
Hope this helps in any way lol!
