As soon as I discovered Stepabroad it was exactly what I was looking for! Problem solved – get a visa, buy a ticket and let the staff take care of the rest. I wanted to feel safe and look back upon my time in Australia as a great adventure …

Stepabroad has made the crazy process of moving across the world to work in a new country extremely straightforward and easy to understand. They helped me in obtaining my working holiday visa, setting up my bank account and tax file number, getting my phone set up, and finding accommodation…

Australia Working Holiday, Sydney Discovery

I wanted to travel to Australia but I was hesitant to go by myself. Stepabroad made it easier; setting me up with a tax file number, bank account and prepping my resume! When I arrived they had activities planned to help you see the city with a group. I recommend traveling with Stepabroad for extra help with living in Australia and to meet fun groups of people!
