Working holiday visa enables you to work and travel through Australia  Aussie album
  
 Landing in Sydney, it was rainy and overcast and I wasn't sure this was the adventure I'd signed up for. Three months on, having worked in a law firm, I'd spent Christmas on Bondi, surfed and saved enough money for two weeks in Tasmania, visiting the incredible Cradle Mountain. I also had enough change for my East Coast excursions, including rafting, diving and boomerang painting...and I'd barely touched my savings. Back in Sydney I really felt at home. So when someone got on the bus bound for Bondi with a massive rucksack and a useless map, sympathetically I directed them to the YHA. Well, when you're a local, you know these things!... The times when I worked in Oz on the Working Holiday Visa were the best, and I met both locals and other travellers which gave me a more complete experience

Completed over 50 dives world wide, advanced open water with rescue diver status, this would be my opportunity to work in an industry I have always wanted to and never been given the chance. |

May 29 2009 8:13 PMAnswer: Wild Dolphins, the reason why I have chosen this one is because I have been adopting a dolphin for 8 years here in the UK and to be able to see them in the nautral environment would be a life changing expereince. |
