Description

Adventure in Australia and experience everything the West Coast has to offer, whilst at the same time having the opportunity to earn some money. This region is a vast and dramatic wilderness punctuated by cities and towns full of life and culture, including Perth and Albany. Enjoy waking to beaming sunshine, spending your days in beautiful rolling countryside, and filling your spare time by booking trips to go snorkelling over sparkling reefs, spotting dolphins in the aquamarine waters of the Indian Ocean or learning to dive whilst socialising with your new friends. Explore the surrounding area and see kangaroos in their natural environment, as well as trying adventure sports such as surfing, windsurfing and bungee jumping. This is a fantastic opportunity to challenge yourself physically and earn money whilst travelling on this magical continent that has continued to draw visitors back time and time again.

* What Will I Be Doing?

Volunteers are responsible for finding their own work placements with support from Frontier's experienced staff in London. We will also advise you on visas, tax and bank accounts. Paid work may involve anything from hand picking fresh strawberries from the vast fields of Western Australia to pruning vineyards in world renowned wine regions. It is up to you how hard you work but the more you do, the more money you are likely to get paid.
