questions about the differences between New Zealand and Australia are constantly repeated on my blog. And yet we do not have no doubt no comparison!
Although the start was quite difficult http://sebasart.blogspot.com/2008/02/ya-puedo-hacer-una-evaluacin.html , for a while that things are super good for us. Cost us was a long way to reach a "consolidation" or a more stable and one of the variants that we played against was the English.
My English was bad when it comes, yet remains poor, but is 20 times better when you arrive or when I played that terrible interview at the embassy in Australia.
Back then, despite all the difficulties with which we began this journey and all we've been in these two years, I think the decision that we take q to come to us in Australia and not New Zealand could not have been better. We went to New Zealand to meet the obligation when you run out of work and holiday http://www.blogcochajoven.com/destinos/australia-y-nueva-zelandia/nos-escriben-desde-australia-historia- of-a-exile-temporal-to-nz / and still think the same thing: do not confuse apples with oranges.
New Zealand is like the guy or the garden courtyard of Australia. And it's not only what we think, but so is. When we talk about something smaller than Australia is New Zealand. So did Hugh Jackman in the award Academy Awards: "Producers of Australia decided to shorten the budget for the upcoming movie, so now going to make New Zealand" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bvTZ_PVKNf0&feature=related
I know that is easier to get a visa to New Zealand (although now we have to cling to combos to be one of the 2,000 who access it and that just only 1 day)
and as there is no requirement English language anyone can access it. But New Zealand will earn less, pay ranges are flat for the week. Here in Australia, the minimum wage at 14 dollars part time, weekends up to 24 to 27 dollars an hour and on Sundays from 26 to 35 per hour. The holidays are paid at 49.5 per hour of work in New Zealand do not.
As prices costs are the same just with a different currency. Quality of life is the same except that earn less in New Zealand.
If you want to work as seasonal think New Zealand is the place, only 3% of the territory is desert, unlike Australia where the desert areas exceed 85% of the territory. Http://www.yesaustralia.com/Outros-mapaaustraliaesp.htm
also that the conditions are better for this type of work, as the climate is similar to the Chilean climate, temperatures are lower. In contrast, in Australia, with higher temperatures in some areas reaching 40 degrees and when this happens, cancel the hit. And here is quite common.
For non pensam
English, which is the excuse of many, New Zealand is the choice. But if you do not speak English and the number of Chileans and South is to never feel in another country, what is the idea of \u200b\u200bleaving everything you have in Chile, with all costs involved, to come to practice English as far away as New Zealand?
I came with a basic level, basic, basic. I became involved in the embassy to study English when he arrived and I did. American did not live with up to 4 th month and that was a major setback.
I say back because English is tight, I felt like I did not learn anything in Gold Coast. Obviously it was because he was in contact with pure Chileans, Colombians and Brazilians, as in New Zealand. And I did not like practicing because no one tried to speak.
This point is super important. What will be the worse without sufficient English.
Especially considering that in periods of crisis foreigners have no choice. I remember when I started working in the hospitality agency where I am, there was no Australian working niuno. Now, when things have changed, over 60% of the seats in the agency are Australians. With this I guess you can imagine what happens in most professional hit. And no matter the experience you bring from abroad. The most important thing for Australians is the experience in Australia.
And I think that's what got us into the current situation: good hit, relaxed as ever, saving properly and without walking stressed because there is no way to pay the rent.
I have several friends who have been on holiday to Australia from New Zealand. Nobody wants to be repaid. All want to come and stay.
We think that while we give away the visa, did not we would go to New Zealand. We prefer to Canada after Australia.
