So you're thinking about jetting off on your big overseas adventure? What better way to experience the best of what Europe has to offer than with a working holiday!

The Working Holiday Maker Program is a cultural agreement between Australia and participating countries for eligible young Australians that allows them to live and work overseas for up to 2 years.

If you are aged between 18 and 30 years of age and hold an Aussie passport you may be eligible to participate in the Working Holiday program. Make cafe lattes in Paris, teach English in Italy or maybe pulling pints in the UK!

Many Commonwealth countries such as Canada and New Zealand also have similar working holiday agreements, so Launchpad Australia can help you too!

See below for participating countries.

OK, so maybe it's your first time to Europe or perhaps you've never done a Working Holiday before. Where to start? Take the Express Lane!

• You've got a place to crash to get over your jetlag
• One easy payment in Aussie dollars (things get much more expensive when you're talking Euros and Pounds)
• Takes the headache out of opening a bank account (can't get paid if you don't have one!)
• You've got all the info on how/where to find more permanent accommodation for your Working Holiday
• If you take the one off cost of Express Lane and divide this over your Working Holiday (let's say 1 year) it comes to only $3.80 per week! Not even the price of a cafe latte in Paris!
