Hi, we are an couple from England who sold up and set off travelling Feb 2011. We are in NZ at the mo where we managed to apply for a waiver on our tourist visa which allowed us to work in the orchards. We done apple picking, kiwi picking and now pruning apple trees.
TV programmes on the Australian Customs show people turning up with little money and no work visa saying they are not going to work when obviously they are.
They are literally put on the next plane home. The Aussies do not mess about.
You want to work, get a work visa. Some work in Australia:
