Floor finisher/carpet fitter on working holiday visa
hi, i have my whv and intend to go to oz about August time i am not sure where about to start i will go where ever there is work for me. i just wanted to know if any body knows the chances of me getting a job doing floor finishing on a whv? and where to start?. i have looked on jobs searches and dont seem to find much and if i do its a full time job. i could do with some inside info or even any one that is in flooring and could tell me a company that might take me on. i have been in the flooring game for about 6 years i mainly do carpets/vinyl and i am self-employed right now in the uk.
thanks

Would never recommend anyone to come to SA it was just a bit of fun.Africa is basically stuffed but it has a lot of amazing qualities that unfortunately don't outway the bad.

I wish SA could be safe so I could move there. I think its the most beautiful country with friendly, welcoming people. In a different climate it would be my first choice

Ja I have lived here for 15 years of which they have been largely happy ones but whites are no longer welcome and we have been asked to leave in a roundabout way.No longer a place to bring up kids that's for sure.So we will move when it is financially possible.
