I booked a working holiday to New Zealand ( I am from Canada) to escape the Canadian winter and travel on my gap year. The whole process had its ups and downs but it was really nice having somewhere reliable to go with all of my questions. I do think it streamlined the process, but please understand that planning something like this takes time and effort. It is very worth it though. Even though I have only been here for a month at the time of writing this review, I have done so many cool and wonderful things. To be clear though, things did go wrong, things got delayed, things got changed and substituted and the system isn't perfect. That's life. It isn't going to be perfect, just stay calm and talk about it. Here are some of my tips if you decide to work with Global: Send more emails than you think you need to. I cannot stress enough how key communication is and it is better to ask to many questions than not enough. Being more informed will help get rid of some of the nervousness and anxiety that you will feel. You are not locked into anything. I decided to find my own job and accommodation when I arrived and while there was some stress, it worked out. I can't tell you to have no fear because there were times when I was scared but just know that it will work out. You can always change your mind and whoever the people you have been in contact with are will be able to help you. If you are connecting on flights through different countries, and you intend to leave the airport, buy a preloaded sim card for your phone. I left the airport without one and it was a nightmare trying to get back. Even if you aren't going far, it is worth it.
