The Perfect Start to My Australian Adventure – Highly Recommend!

by: Sophie Laplane - United StatesProgram: Melbourne Gap Year: Paid Work Opportunities in Australia

Joining the Melbourne Gap Year tour with Grabatour was the best way to start my working holiday in Australia. From day one, everything was well-organized, and the team made sure we had all the essentials sorted—bank accounts, tax file numbers, SIM cards, and even job support. It took away all the stress of settling in and allowed me to focus on enjoying the experience. The itinerary was a perfect balance of practical help and exciting activities. We explored Melbourne’s vibrant laneways, visited St. Kilda Beach, and got to experience the city’s amazing food and coffee culture. The guides were friendly, knowledgeable, and always ready to help with anything we needed. One of the best parts of the tour was the people. I met an incredible group of fellow travelers, and the shared experiences made it easy to form friendships. Even after the tour ended, we stayed in touch and continued exploring Australia together. If you’re planning a working holiday in Australia, I highly recommend this tour. It gives you the perfect start, a great group of friends, and the confidence to begin your adventure the right way!

A Guide to Construction Jobs Abroad

Why Work Abroad in Construction

Maybe you’ve volunteered with local organizations or had construction jobs before, or maybe you majored in construction management in college. Whatever your experience with construction, packing up your tool belt and heading to work in construction abroad will give you a new perspective on a country’s infrastructure, economy, and the little things we might take for granted day-to-day. You’ll have a hand in building something from the ground up that lasts well beyond your time in-country. Now that’s making an impact!

Through the process of working in construction abroad, you’ll not only build sustainable housing, a new fence, or a school, but you’ll build your resume as well. Employers love to see someone that isn’t afraid to step outside of their usual surroundings, put their back into it, and work hard.
