Unforgettable experience with Global Work & Travel
June 11, 2026by: Brandon - - United KingdomI had an unforgettable experience with global work & travel on this trip, and my Trip Coordinator Shona was truly exceptional. They took care of every detail, from logistics to local insights, making sure each day was seamless and exciting. Their knowledge of the area was impressive, and they shared hidden gems that we would have never discovered on our own. What really stood out was how they handled unexpected situations with ease, always staying one step ahead and making sure we felt comfortable and supported. They communicated clearly, so we always knew what to expect, and their enthusiasm made the whole experience feel that much more special. Thanks to Shona, I could fully relax and enjoy the adventure without any stress. Highly recommend for anyone looking to make the most out of their travels with expert guidance! Will definitely be back in the future.
My trip has been absolutely excellent so far
June 11, 2026by: Jarret - - CanadaMy trip has been absolutely excellent so far. I arrived on the 19th of February in Sydney and am living in Glenmore Park. A few days after exploring the place and seeing what is around me I went to a concert that was amazing. After that I went to a place called Forster and got to see the beach and the ocean surrounding it. I got to go on a boat and do some fishing while seeing all the wildlife around including pelicans, dolphins and a lot of different kind of fish and sea life. After all the exploring I went back to Penrith and met some of my partners family and friends who were all so nice to me. They explained the culture a little bit more, and a lot of them are rugby (footy?) fans and introduced me to the game which I found really fascinating because I love sports and learning the game. Now that I've settled in and seen what's around I am looking for jobs around the area. My next goal here is to figure out the bus and train systems so that I can get myself around. Another goal I have is to make some friends in my free time and get some insight on the hidden gems of the area. I'd really like to go for some hikes to see more of all the natural beauty of the area. I'm so happy about how warm it is here and not having any snow around me makes me so happy. I do miss my family back home and with the time difference its hard to catch them when they are available but its been nice to have a different family atmosphere to be around that is so warm and welcoming. I do feel a little out of my comfort zone being in a place that is so different from where I come from, but each day that I am here it gets better and better. I'd like to thank Shona for being there if I have any questions or concerns and keeping in contact with insights and tips. It's very much appreciated with everything this journey has come with. I feel like I'm in safe and good hands and would recommend her to anyone who wants a fantastic experience with Global!
Experience of A Lifetime
June 11, 2026by: Phill - - United StatesThis trip has truly been the experience of a lifetime, and it has been made so much easier by Asti and other people at global work and travel who have assisted me. Asti has helped me book day trips, hostels, and provided me with a great job match before I even arrived in Australia!
Incredible Experience so far..
June 11, 2026by: Jack - - United StatesI've been delighted with my experience, working with Global has made my experience amazing and given me peace of mind that all will go smoothly and if not, I've got assistance if needed! Asti, my arrival coordinator, has been most helpful and checked in multiple times even since my arrival to make sure that all is going well. My only feedback would be that I think that orientation should be in person, with other Global travellers in the area - it was difficult to network with others travelling with the same company over messaging only, and the 2 people I managed to find agreed that they thought orientation was in person 😅. Overall, an incredible experience so far, and thank you for your help finding me a suitable role and supporting me at every stage.
Most Amazing Experience in Australia
June 11, 2026by: Jennifer - - NetherlandsFrom the moment I said I wanted to go with Global Work and Travel I've just had te most amazing experience! The people who have helped me are amazing and super nice and also helped me with anything I could possibly need and want. It's been a great first week!
Highly Recommended Program with Global Work & Travel
June 11, 2026by: Erin - - United StatesCould not recommend enough! Since day 1, Charlie, David and Hannah have all been so kind and informative. They have all helped me to book and arrange everything, this is my first time travelling so I had alot of silly questions that they answered as best they could and I could not be more thankful. Hannah has checked in every step of the way and been so reassuring and helpful since arriving. I would not be out in Australia loving life if it wasn't for them all
Life-Changing Experience in Australia with Global Work & Travel
June 11, 2026by: Joe - - United KingdomPlanning a life changing event like working and living abroad doesn't come without a mountain of tasks, unseen hurdles and life admin I really wasn't ready for... Luckily the stress was pretty much evaporated by the team at Global who made the process a breeze, guiding through the stages of booking, planning and all the admin you wouldn't think about until I landed... Flights. Visa. Phone Sim. First Hostel, and probably most reassuring of all - a job when you've stepped off the plane. They handle it absolutely perfectly, pre trip nerves ? Squashed with constant check ins for concerns and changes of your plans ! Nothing is too much trouble for the team at Global, who guide you through the whole journey from concept to landing on the tarmac Down under - with continued support after you've settled to really keep you reassured. I would highly recommend Global based on my experience with them, be it for a working holiday, excursion tour or any of their services! What makes it so much more tangible is the team there have had their own travelling experiences and handle your booking on a human level, really hyping you up in the build up and putting any worries at ease. My trip In particular was handled flawlessly by Myles, David and Asti. Who I highly commend from taking me out of a nowhere job bored in the UK to living the dream down under in Melbourne !
Outstanding Support and Smooth Settlement in Australia
June 11, 2026by: Caitlin - - CanadaAsti and the rest of the Global team have been nothing but amazing when helping me get prepared and settled into my accommodations and work place in Australia. They set everything up for me prior to my arrival which made me feel at ease when arriving. I would highly recommend using any of their services when booking any sort of trip with the company and also highly recommend having Asti as a travel coordinator as she has been nothing but sweet, understanding, and respectful while assisting me throughout this process!
Seamless Support and Lifelong Memories with Global Work & Travel
June 11, 2026by: Emily Rose - United KingdomThis trip has truly been the experience of a lifetime, and it has been made so much easier by Asti and other people at global work and travel who have assisted me. Asti has helped me book day trips, hostels, and provided me with a great job match before I even arrived in Australia!
Smooth Arrival and Stunning First Impressions of Melbourne Nightlife
June 11, 2026by: Keaton H - United KingdomFirst and foremost my trip has barely started im only 3 weeks in but I have really enjoyed the nightlife in Melbourne and just how sublime the city appears at night with breath taking views. My travel coordinator made it simple for me to be able to land in Australia and not have to worry about taxi, or Ubers to get to my accommodation and also helping me with multiple job opportunities, before I arrived in Australia communication was very immediate to ensure my trip was as smooth as possible.
THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART!
June 11, 2026by: Sonja S - AustraliaProgram: TEFL/TESOL in Thailand | Teach & Travel Around Asia
What can I say... Words just don't seem enough to express how great my Amazing Dynamic Duo (Trip Coordinator - Reece / Travel Concierge - Ashley) are. From the time the booking was made and notwithstanding we also have Covid-19 thrown into the mix and then all the way right through to me finally reaching my destination Prague, Czech Republic. Throughout the entire time, my dynamic duo have always been extremely professional, courteous, helpful and and and... but above all they have gone above and beyond the call of duty in assisting me with all that I needed to do in making my dream become a reality and me landing in Prague especially during this crisis the world is now facing with the Covid-19. Now I get to enjoy my birthday abroad in a new country that I have never really been to before. And so, I look forward to the new chapter in my life learning to teach abroad and embrace the new way of life in Prague! I would like to take this opportunity in giving my heartfelt thanks to both my Amazing Dynamic Duo (Trip Coordinator - Reece / Travel Concierge - Ashley) because without you, I would not be here in Prague right now... ""THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART!""
The whole team was helpful
June 11, 2026by: Lexi L - United StatesProgram: TEFL/TESOL in Thailand | Teach & Travel Around Asia
My experience with gWorld was overall positive because of the team that helped me prepare for my trip. I had Kate as a coordinator. She introduced me to the necessary paperwork/documentation I would need to do and lead me through each step of the process. I knew I could reach out about anything and she could answer my question or direct me to the right person. It seemed like a few things got lost along the way but I still appreciate her forwarding my documents to XploreAsia. She was also able to give me a discount when I paid for my trip so I could avoid paying extra because of bank fees which was great! I'd say the whole team was helpful with their positive attitude and ability to call almost any time despite the time difference. They checked in on me regularly and made sure I had everything sorted out.
All in all so far so good.
June 11, 2026by: Isabel I - United StatesProgram: TEFL/TESOL in Thailand | Teach & Travel Around Asia
Tim was of great help. We first had a short interview process to see if I was eligible for my program and he gave me some give information about the company itself. After he processed to answering all the questions I had and made sure I felt comfortable and reassured before continuing. He was very upbeat and was very enthusiastic. However, be mindful they will proceed to go on and strongly encourage you to make deposit to hold your spot. I didn't like this tactic but I was sure I wanted to travel with this company after all my research. All in all so far so good.
Excellent impressive!
June 11, 2026by: Mary-Anne M - AustraliaExcellent impressive service from Hanna ('Hanna 2') and Global. You are well organised to move mountains in one phone call.! I didn't imagine the enquiry call would progress to a confirmed placement! A 16 year old seed has finally been reaped and now looking forward to the sewing season next year. Thankful for such a service as this. Thank you so much. Espana! Velvo a ti!
Very friendly and knowledgeable
June 11, 2026by: Alex A - CanadaProgram: TEFL/TESOL in Thailand | Teach & Travel Around Asia
Very friendly and knowledgeable, and flexible about allowing me the time I need to make my decision, as well as effectively answering all my questions, even the uncomfortable ones related to poor outside opinions and reassuring me and being understanding of the logic behind these issues. Generally fun to talk to, and helped get me excited for my trip.
Amazing, friendly and supportive.
June 11, 2026by: Honora H - AustraliaProgram: TEFL/TESOL in Thailand | Teach & Travel Around Asia
Amazing, friendly and supportive. I loved that they were super informative and took the time to outline every part of the trip and answer any questions I had throughout. They were very patient through payment processings, and offered helpful advice and guidance through my decision for the trip. Overall a highly professional and helpful experience.
Overall I had a great experience!
June 11, 2026by: Rose R - United StatesProgram: TEFL/TESOL in Thailand | Teach & Travel Around Asia
Overall I had a great experience, but did face a few bumps along the way. The description says Hua Hin, but it's really anywhere in Thailand. The staff were always helpful and available when I had doubts/questions. Covid did make things a bit more challenging, but glad I did this because it was an incredible experience!
It's been pretty good
June 11, 2026by: Chelsea C - United StatesProgram: TEFL/TESOL in Thailand | Teach & Travel Around Asia
It's been pretty good the whole process has been pretty smooth, considering the issues that I had that had to deal with personally that pushed back some things. Then my last travel coordinator "Jack" was not communicating with actually at all. So I express my issues with the manager who actually helped.
They Made It Feel Real
June 11, 2026by: Keenan K - CanadaProgram: TEFL/TESOL in Thailand | Teach & Travel Around Asia
The representative of Global Work and Travel answered all my questions and somehow made me even more excited about going and teaching in Thailand. Every person I talked to had a very positive personality and are among the friendliest and happiest people I've ever talked to on the phone.
Arizona Was Never Going to Hold Me Forever
June 11, 2026by: Verushcka V - United StatesI already had my heart set to get out of this boring desert (Arizona) and I just needed to figure out how and thanks to Shaun who followed up with me and provided me the support and encouragement I needed to make my first move and just go!!! So now I'm booked for September... España here I come!!
Can't wait for my trip!
June 11, 2026by: Bella B - New ZealandAll the staff have been amazing and very helpful for me, they have helped me work through all the different options and helped me with all the application processes! Can't wait for my trip! Dave and Nicole have been especially helpful!
I felt confident and safe.
June 11, 2026by: Samantha S - CanadaProgram: TEFL/TESOL in Thailand | Teach & Travel Around Asia
Amazing! She was so informative and genuine. She genuinely cared and was so polite. She reassured me that I would be taken good care of and explained the whole program to me as well. I felt confident and safe after speaking with her.
Tai is amazing!!!
June 11, 2026by: Robert R - United StatesI loved the process. Everyone was so nice. Tai is amazing!!! This was such a pleasure to do. I am so happy that I chose to go with this company to Teach English abroad. I am so excited that I am moving forward with this adventure.
I'm ready to begin my course!
June 11, 2026by: Jacynda J - AustraliaThe initial week where we got to immerse in flamenco dance class, paella cooking class and Spanish Intro classes made the transition smooth, I feel like I've already made strong connections and I'm ready to begin my course!
Amazing Experience!
June 11, 2026by: Kitana K - United StatesProgram: TEFL/TESOL in Thailand | Teach & Travel Around Asia
Amazing! The team at Global Work & Travel worked hard to ensure that I received the help I desperately needed. Customer service was amazing and they are so kind. Thank you to Liam and Reece for your awesome help!
Professional But Make It Human
June 11, 2026by: Ebony E - New ZealandProgram: TEFL/TESOL in Thailand | Teach & Travel Around Asia
Global Work & Travel team had such a friendly expert, made me feel super happy when she talked to me. Super professional and but casual at the same time. Would always call and be super fast with emails.

It Was an Incredible Experience I Ever Had!
June 10, 2026by: Malakhi M - United KingdomProgram: Working Holiday in New Zealand | Your Kiwi Adventure
New Zealand is an amazing place, the sights and landscapes are absolutely incredible. From the time i arrived and even before i arrived i was guided through everything i needed for the trip and had things waiting for me. Although only a few weeks into my trip i feel that global work and travel have made this incredible trip feel amazing and i feel like I'm at home already.
The Warmth Was So Real
June 10, 2026by: Serena S - United StatesProgram: Working Holiday in New Zealand | Your Kiwi Adventure
My travel agent was amazing! She was so sweet and kind, she cared and made talking about this fun. She gave me ideas and is so good at what she does! She made me feel very comfortable and we laughed a lot and had fun. My experience was so awesome. I feel like i want to know her in person. I loved her!
They Just Made Sure I Didn't Mess It Up
June 10, 2026by: Steven S - AustraliaProgram: Working Holiday in New Zealand | Your Kiwi Adventure
I mainly used global work and travel to keep me on track for going to NZ. This was because I was already on a visa in another country not through glabal work and travel and I also wanted to meet/know people before hand. Global work and travel did both just swimmingly! I was able to meet the 5 other global work and travel people coming in to Auckland right when they arrived. I talked to 2 of them prior to me landing. We hung out and did activities everyday! It was cool to see pictures of the inclusion with All the Global work and travel people together. Even though our jobs are in different towns we still plan to meet up somewhere along the way! Also Hannah was very good at keeping me on track.
Didn't Think I'd Be This Settled This Fast
June 10, 2026by: Amelia A - United KingdomProgram: Working Holiday in New Zealand | Your Kiwi Adventure
I booked pretty much everything with with Global Work and Travel which took a big stress off my shoulders. From the flights here which were really good to getting to the Attic it was really smooth. The Global team were really helpful and had good response times to any emails for questions. The team set me up with an interview for a job which I've now been at for almost a month and I'm loving it. I also decided to join the rugby team in the town I work and I'm really enjoying playing for them. I decided to keep the Sky walk in Auckland towards the end of my trip which I'm really happy i got the option to do. Overall I've had a really good experience in New Zealand and would highly recommend a visit.
Worth Every Penny
June 10, 2026by: Jason J - CanadaProgram: Working Holiday in New Zealand | Your Kiwi Adventure
"For my first long-term international solo trip, Global Work & Travel has been such a reassuring asset that provided excellent support throughout the entire travel process. Without them, I would've hesitated at every step while planning my trip, questioning whether I checked every box I would need to or found the most suitable options. Their coordinators really streamlined the entire thing and set me up for success! Not only did they ensure that I followed a good time-frame to acquire all the necessary documentation, they would even arrange some of the transactions on my behalf after going over the service details and price with me, much of which I would have been poorly informed on otherwise. If you would prefer to obtain any of these things yourself, then they are more than willing to work with you. For example, you may want to secure a job and a place to stay way ahead of finalizing your trip as it was a bit nerve-racking having to wait until I was only a couple weeks out from my departure before they set up an interview. However, for me the most intimidating aspect of living abroad for an extended period is finding a reliable source of income. So I really appreciated how they work as liaisons for various businesses, though of course they can't work miracles as you'll still have to compete with other applicants. Many employers are looking to hire rather quickly and expect you to already have all that's required for you to begin working including your visa, bank account, and tax number. So GW&T gives you the best chance of landing a gig by ensuring you've covered all your bases, that you apply to opportunities relative to your experience and to companies that are familiar with hiring foreigners, and do so all on a timeline that's feasible for them to meet their workforce demands. Having put my complete trust in GW&T, it all worked out as they helped me find a real sweet position that fit my interests and came with accommodations! The initial hostel arrangement for when I first landed was also great and very convenient! They chose a clean, reputable place in a prime location and booked it alongside plenty of other travelers using their program so it was easy to make a lot of friends. Now that I've been through the planning procedure once myself, I could likely book another trip of this duration again on my own, but all the resources they provided and activities included were well worth it! I was able to learn about the culture and get a taste of what it has to offer while engaging in enjoyable experiences I likely wouldn't have bothered to organize personally. Although I can't guarantee you'll get as much as I did out of their services, I would definitely recommend them and would certainly work with them again myself!"
Such an Amazing Experience!
June 10, 2026by: Cameron C - Northern Mariana Islands (USA)Program: Working Holiday in New Zealand | Your Kiwi Adventure
Global work and travel is an excellent stepping stone into the world of travel! They help you with everything you are going to need before your go abroad. With their help I was able to travel to New Zealand and get a job here. It's already been such an amazing experience. I have made new friends and got to do so many amazing things.
Didn't Have to Google a Single Thing
June 10, 2026by: Hector H - Hawaii (USA)Program: Working Holiday in New Zealand | Your Kiwi Adventure
Global made planning my whole trip easier and less stressful. I didn't have to worry about where to find official documents or where I needed to go for insurance, flights, and immigration because they did that work and research for me. Megan my trip coordinator was always lovely to speak with and very helpful.
Didn't Expect to Find My People Here Too
June 10, 2026by: Libby L - Guam (USA)Program: Working Holiday in New Zealand | Your Kiwi Adventure
Without the help of this amazing team of people I would have been lost. The pre booked excursions have made me memories of a lifetime. With all of the other travelers who chose this company have been some of the best people I've ever met & we are having the best time! :)
Easiest Decision I Ever Made
June 10, 2026by: Gabrielle G - CanadaProgram: Working Holiday in New Zealand | Your Kiwi Adventure
The sign up process was very easy, I had quite a bit of time to prepare for traveling to NZ. Upon getting here, my arrivals coordinator set up for me to do the Auckland bridge walk with AJ Hackett (10/10) would recommend doing that. As well as wine tasting on Waiheke island. I got a job in an awesome little lakeside town and have had the opportunity to go white water rafting with Kaitiaki Adventures (captain jack was awesome) and got to do the bungy swing in Taupo.
Didn't Have to Think About a Single Thing
June 10, 2026by: Valerye V - United StatesProgram: Working Holiday in New Zealand | Your Kiwi Adventure
I appreciated how organized and well-structured the trip was. The itinerary was thoughtfully planned, and everything ran on schedule. My Trip Coordinator played a key role in making the experience smooth by providing timely updates, managing logistics efficiently, and being consistently available for any questions. Their professionalism made the trip significantly easier.

My experience with Global Work and Travel was fantastic
March 14, 2023by: Tom Fisher - United KingdomMy experience with Global Work and Travel was fantastic, it was very smooth running and I had a great coordinator helping me every step up along the way. Eimear was always patient, friendly and very knowledgeable in her field of work and I could see she clearly had a passion for her job which made it a lot less stressful for me also. Overall I would 100% recommend using this agency and I also would definitely go back to using them again in the future :)
Working Holiday in New Zealand
March 14, 2023by: Vanda M - United StatesProgram: Working Holiday in New Zealand | Your Kiwi Adventure
I signed up for work holiday in New Zealand with a friend, and my trip coordinator was Kim Olsen. She was very helpful and friendly through out my entire process leading up to New Zealand, when I arrived in Auckland, and during my journey on the ground. Kim was always available via email or phone call and always reminded us that she was there to help, she made me feel like I had support even in my most confused moments. Thank you, Kim! :)) I've been in New Zealand for a little over a month and so far am enjoying my experience, and I still have some excursions left to do that is offered through Global Work and Travel. :)) Pros: Meet new people also in the programme Built in excursions and tours Help setting up cell phone service and bank account
Sooo glad I opted to go with Global Work & Travel
March 14, 2023by: Laura Moir - United Kingdom''Sooo glad I opted to go with Global Work & Travel. They help you every step of the way, any problems I had they were just an email away. I can't Thank Eimear (travel coordinator) enough for her help and support. As this was my first time traveling solo, I didn't feel alone when it came to the important stuff like the paperwork,visa and navigating the flight plan. They provided all the information I needed and even broke it down for me, if I was finding it hard to digest. When it came to it I was sent lots of options of places to apply for and managed to get a job at my 1st choice. So I'm doing a 6 month working holiday in Canada and working at Sunshine Village ski'' We also had orientation today and asked three of the travelers to leave a review on your link so fingers crossed they come through :)
Great, orientation was very informative
March 08, 2023by: Grace Morley - United KingdomGreat, orientation was very informative, Betty was very friendly and helpful Mark was also fantastic via email, phone and video call Housing - 5/5, my accommodation is nicer than I've had working abroad previously Support - 5/5 for Mark, he's always been very friendly and helpful! 4/5 overall - my only negative experience was with someone in the London office Fun - 4/5, pretty good! Just a little difficult to go anywhere outside of Jasper, as there isn't any public transport and I don't have a car Value - 4/5, I'm a bit older and I've worked overseas previously, this is a great extension to that ? Safety - 5/5, I feel very safe Overall - 4.5/5 - Canada is wonderful, Mark was great!
Global has been absolutely terrific making the move overseas to Canada smooth and exciting
March 06, 2023by: Ruby O'Shea - AustraliaGlobal has been absolutely terrific making the move overseas to Canada smooth and exciting. Both Brianna and Mark are dead set legends and have been so helpful in making every part of the process so much fun! 10/10 recommend!!!! Mark and Global have been nothing but AMAZING during my working holiday so far. My experience with my current job and staff accommodation has been very challenging however that is no reflection on Mark.
The service received today was extremely informationable
March 06, 2023by: John Eardley - EnglandThe service received today was extremely informationable and was an eye opener on what Canada has to offer. Mark my travel coordinator has been extremely helpful, but our orientation organiser Tiare has been extremely helpful and welcoming and has made everyone feel at ease. Mark is a superb coordinator and has helped myself and my travelling companion Elicia really well, on our arrival in Canada he made us feel very welcome and at ease, he showed us many things to do and made sure we got settled in. And throughout the months he has remained in contact with support and information about other available job opportunities around Canada, so i would just love to say how much i appreciate him as a coordinator and as a man, he is lovely and caring.
Amazing service that I highly recommend
March 03, 2023by: Emily Vaughan - AustraliaProgram: Au Pair Italy – Complete Italian Cultural Experience
I have been working with Global Work and Travel to organise my Tutor in Italy trip since August 2022. I am so glad and relieved I went through Global Work and Travel to organise my working holiday. Julie-Anne has been incredible, guiding me through the Visa and tutor placement processes and answering any questions that come up. She has been responsive and supportive and has truly made what would have been a stressful process an absolute joy. I highly recommend her and the Global Work and Travel team to anyone looking to organise an overseas working holiday.
The best decision I have ever made!
March 03, 2023by: Paige Hill - AustraliaProgram: Work Holiday in Ireland - Cash In on the Luck of the Irish
I’ve been living and working in Ireland since November 2022 and I’m a solo traveler, but I’ve met so many people and made lots of life long friends already! It feels like I live in a movie; I work, I live with 3 wonderful girls on similar trips to my own, I go out heaps and am honestly having the time of my life. I’ve developed so much confidence and grown so much over 3 months; my adventures have only begun! I would highly recommend doing something like this!! Pros: Meet lots of people Develop confidence Make so many memories Cons Can be daunting at first being in a different country Homesickness Can be a tad bit lonely
Working Holiday in Canada
March 02, 2023by: Jordan Desira - AustraliaI’m from Australia & moved to Canada with Global a year ago. It has honestly been everything I’ve wanted & more. I’m here working in one of the most beautiful towns in the world ‘Banff’ and travelling around whenever I want. Global was amazing every step of the way. They provided with me so many options & made the process so easy & enjoyable. I cannot recommend doing a working holiday enough, it allows you to properly experience the country, events, seasons & lifestyle. Not to mention makes it so much easier to travel around. I just got back from Hawaii a day ago! (Would recommend ?) If you are wanting to experience something new & explore the world, then I would encourage you to do the working holiday as the risk are taken out because Global helps you and has your back throughout the entire experience. Cannot recommend the opportunity Global provides! The question is, would you regret doing it, or not doing it? ? Safe Travels! ?

Best trip ever!
March 01, 2023by: Scott Hamber - EnglandMade is so easy, I went with Global back in 2019 and i'm still currently here. Great company as they got my foot in the door, had a job as a bartender in a resort/casino that included staff accommodation which was set up before I left, which made it easier for me and my piece of mind, which allowed me to save and start meeting like minded travellers. They helped with the visa and flights and every time I had a question or concerns they called and helped me. Had such a great experience which is why i'm still here 4 years later.

What inspired you to travel abroad?
I had just returned from my working holiday in Australia and had a real passion for traveling. Global Work and Travel seemed like the ideal place to start my career. I love that they get people who are wanting to travel but don't know where to start and are starting in a new country. I am proud that I can be such a huge part of that.

What inspired you to travel abroad?
My huge passion for travel and helping others experience travel in a very meaningful way. Until I went on my first solo trip abroad (a working holiday to Australia) I didn't realize how life-changing a work abroad experience could be! From nights I don't remember with friends I'll never forget, it was the adventure of a lifetime that I feel everyone should go for at least once in their lifetime.

What inspired you to travel abroad?
Global offers a variety of different travel experiences that help youth travelers on working holidays, volunteers giving back to communities and animal conservation, teachers abroad helping kids in Thailand learn English, and so much more! The diversity to help so many people move their lives overseas or help people in less fortunate countries is very rewarding.

What inspired you to travel abroad?
I've always been passionate about travel. I lived in Portugal until I was 18 and moved to the U.K. on my own. I have always wanted to help people experience what I did but with a bit more support, as things did not always go to plan, so now i'm very passionate about helping people see the world in a meaningful way and travel to over 60 destinations over the world.
