This appears to be a replica of the actual "Working Holiday" application for Ireland which is strange because this was the first link I clicked on and voila, for the country I'm moving to! Meant to be? :p
There are so many important steps to take when moving abroad even if just for a short time. It can get quite overwhelming which is why checklists are so handy! Great way to keep yourself organized a midst the craziness! A few tips for getting ready before your moving Holiday! - If you are moving somewhere the currency is different, start watching your bank and their currency conversion rates a few months prior. This will help you learn trends and you can start buying your money with confidence that you're getting the best rate! - Travel lightly! Look at storing furniture, decorative items, cookware etc at a friend or family members! Even consider a storage locker. Depending on where you are headed, you might be able to find "furnished" flats / apartments. Less things brought over means less headache at the airport and when headed to the Hotel / Hostel. - Meet with a Financial Advisor at your bank to discuss what to do with your account and how to continue paying bills. I learned from my visit with the bank that they had recently launched a money transfer service with over 33 countries so far. Ireland was one of them! I can easily pay my bills here in Canadian by transferring Euro's over from my new account. So easy! I also found a cheaper monthly plan for my account that will keep it open but charge me next to nothing to have it! Definitely worth the 20 Minute visit! Those are all the tips for now, I still have 3 months to go before I am done my job and 4 months to go before I fly out !! HAPPY VEG
