I spoke to a girl from Irland few months ago. She told me that she had been living there for a year. As she claims it is easy to find a job such as waitress etc. The point is that the living cost in Australia are below european average. Because of that it`s possible to earn enough working, for example, as a waitress or something like that. I think that it`s all over the world hard to find a well-paid job. Another point is that when you decide to go to Australia then you have to buy a one-way ticket (it is not economical to come back after one week). Then, if you really want to go there then you have to be aware that it is quite possible that you won`t find a job in the beginning.
