Default Newbie in need of help

Hi there. I'm Rob and this is my first post on here.

I've been considering travelling or moving abroad for a while now and I am wanting to start doing something about it. I'm currently saving money so I have enough when the time does come (Ideally summer 2010)

I'm sure this has been asked loads before so i'm sorry in advance. I will hopefully be travelling or moving with my girlfriend so i'm asking you guys/ladies on what options I have.

What sort of Visa's are available? Example being, how long can I stay in a place for without a full Visa etc. If I am just 'travelling' then how long can I stay in the country working for etc etc? If I want to stay for longer what do I need to do etc.

Sorry if it's all mishmash and you must get asked this a lot.

Thankyou.

Rob

Firstly, how old are you? If you come on a tourist visa you won't be permitted to work at all. If you are under 30 you can get a working holiday visa for up to two years.

I'm 24 but will be 25 when I move. My girlfriend will be 20.

Working Holiday Visa would be the way to go for you both then by the sounds of it. You can always try to get sponsored by an employer once you are out here.
