TAKING A WORKING HOLIDAY
One of the more difficult things young people face when they want to travel is the lack of funds.
During summer holidays and possibly at weekends, they are able to take on part-time jobs, but the
money they make is just a drop in the bucket of what they need to travel far away. For example,
traveling to Australia from Vietnam can be quite expensive just for an airline ticket, and to a lot of
students wanting to travel, it can seem out of reach.
For students wanting to travel to Australia and New Zealand in particular, however, they are in luck.
Although many countries offer working holidays, these two countries are well-known for offering them.
When a young person signs up to get a working holiday visa, he only pays for the round-trip airfare to
get to either place and only needs to carry some extra cash for incidentals. Once he is there, a job awaits
where he can earn some money.
Many of the jobs require little or no experience, such as picking fruit or working in a busy pub out in
the countryside. Some of the jobs require more experience that most people are unlikely to have, such as
being a certified welder to work for eight weeks on a farm. That shouldn’t discourage you, though,
because there is always something to be found if you search hard enough.
There are many websites that advertise working holidays in Australia and New Zealand. If you have
the courage and are looking for a way to make a little money and see the world, it might be just the ticket
you were looking for.

interesting pictures of Berlin. The blog got its name because in the past, newspapers published their food

SIMPLE WAYS TO LOSE WEIGHT ON A BUDGET
Plan to Cook at Home
Instead of buying costly prepared meals, which often tend to be high in calories, cook your own at
home. Plan out our meals with high-fiber foods like beans and whole grains which will keep you full and
are a cheaper, healthier alternative to rich proteins and more processed grains.
Eat Less
Eating less leads to weight loss, and cost savings, especially if you cut down on the right things. Start
by cutting your portions of spicy meat and poultry. Or swap out meat and poultry for cheaper vegetarian
proteins like beans, lentils, tofu and eggs for some of your meals.
Double Up on Vegetables
Vegetables are great for weight loss, as well as all-around health. They are low in calories and high
in water and fiber – two things that keep you feeling full. Save cash by shopping for those that are in
season. Frozen vegetables can be a great bargain, with just as much nutrition as fresh, since they are
picked and frozen at their peak ripeness.
Get Creative with Your Exercise Options
You don’t need to shell out a monthly gym fee to get moving. Instead, find fun activities you enjoy
for free. If you’re just getting started with a regular exercise routine, try your beginning with daily
walks: start slowly and build up time and speed.
Make Friends with Someone
One of the most powerful resources you have for helping you lose weight is your social network.
Find a friend who is also trying to lose weight and agree to help each other stay motivated. One study
found that when friends participated in a group weight-loss programme together, they lost more weight
than people who did the same programme on their own.

TAKING A WORKING HOLIDAY
One of the more difficult things young people face when they want to travel is the lack of funds.
During summer holidays and possibly at weekends, they are able to take on part-time jobs, but the
money they make is just a drop in the bucket of what they need to travel far away. For example,
traveling to Australia from Vietnam can be quite expensive just for an airline ticket, and to a lot of
students wanting to travel, it can seem out of reach.
For students wanting to travel to Australia and New Zealand in particular, however, they are in
luck. Although many countries offer working holidays, these two countries are well-known for
offering them. When a young person signs up to get a working holiday visa, he only pays for the
round-trip airfare to get to either place and only needs to carry some extra cash for incidentals. Once
he is there, a job awaits where he can earn some money.
23
Many of the jobs require little or no experience, such as picking fruit or working in a busy pub out
in the countryside. Some of the jobs require more experience that most people are unlikely to have,
such as being a certified welder to work for eight weeks on a farm. That shouldn’t discourage you,
though, because there is always something to be found if you search hard enough.
There are many websites that advertise working holidays in Australia and New Zealand. If you
have the courage and are looking for a way to make a little money and see the world, it might be just
the ticket you were looking for.
