Best decision

November 27, 2025by: Nuria Frei - SwitzerlandProgram: Australia Hotel & Tourism Jobs

Taking part in this program was honestly one of the best decisions I made for my gap year. The team helped place me in a casual Guest Service/Reception role at a hostel in Byron Bay, and the whole process was smooth and supportive from start to finish. When I first arrived, I worked casual hours on the front desk—checking guests in, answering questions, helping with bookings, and making sure everyone felt welcome. It was a great way to ease into the job, settle into the area, and get comfortable with the hostel environment. After a some time, I was offered full-time hours, which meant more responsibility and more chances to really get involved in the day-to-day running of the hostel. I handled everything from guest check-ins and maintaining common areas and general customer service. It was busy, fun, and no two days were the same. One of the best parts was getting to live on-site with the other staff. It created an instant community—everyone was friendly, supportive, and always up for a surf, a sunset walk, or a spontaneous night out. Living where you work made life so easy, and it really felt like a little family away from home. And Byron Bay… what a place to spend a gap year. On my days off, I’d go to the beach, hike up to the lighthouse, try new cafés, explore the markets, or go for a surf. The town has such a relaxed, positive energy, and it’s impossible not to fall in love with the lifestyle. If you’re thinking about doing a working holiday in Australia, I can’t recommend this program enough. Having help with the placement, the support network, and the chance to step straight into a job and community made the whole experience stress-free and incredibly rewarding. It’s the perfect way to meet new people, gain work experience, and enjoy everything Australia has to offer. I’d do it all over again in a heartbeat.
