Planning a trip to Australia to work/study - can I get some advice?

Question

I am planning a trip in order to study for three months in Sidney and spend three months working, then I am planning to extend this period and stay for about 1, 2 years, studying and working.

I made a research and the best choices are Toronto - Canada, Ireland and Sidney - Australia.

Would anyone have any advice or tips to give me about it? Where should I stay, best places to work, find jobs, live...?

Thank you all!

Answer 1

Sydney Australia has a lot of jobs, and good pay, you'll need a work/study visa though.  Depending on what kind of work you're looking for....bar/wait person?...office?.....IT?  Accommodation can be expensive so you might want to look at sharing especially if it's only short term.

Not sure on the other cities you mentioned.

Answer 2

Well, I've lived in Dublin Ireland, and Sydney, Australia, but never in Toronto.  

I think your best bet would definitely be Australia though.  You'll get a job in Sydney no problem, but have you considered Brisbane instead?  it's like old Australia meets new Australia.  i moved here last year and i love it.  I'm moving on soon though, going to New Zealand.

Answer 3

ok wal first thing is it is sydney not the way you spell it ok a lot of folks go to sydney but try melbourne & working how much knowledge do you have in bar work a lot of aussies like the sound accent of americans and if you are pretty that is another bonus but you did not say what your studying ??
