Hi from Tom, East Sussex, UK.
 

hey there. i just signed up.

Well my name is Tom, im 26 and im looking to see more of the world.

I work as a maintenance engineer in the food industry, i love my job and it would be great to work and see more of the world at the same time. i have stumbled across this site and hopefully there is a bunch of people on here to point me in the right direction.

I have always dreamed of working in Australia or New Zealand but i have never known were to start. so really i have lots of questions about visas, employment, and finding a job on the other side of the world. :)

nothing is easy in this world and i expect finding work/employment down under isnt going to be easy, but if i follow my dreams, i might just get there. (with a little help :o )

tom :)
