Over 30 - your work/travel options

If you are researching a working holiday, gap year or career break overseas no doubt you will have discovered that working holiday visas are only issued to those aged between 18 and 30 years inclusive. So what do you do if you are 31 years and over? Stay home? Not likely.

Even though your working holiday/gap year options are limited they are not extinct.

Some work/travel suggestions for over 30s are: (these are fully explained in our e-book Over 30?)

• See what other visas are available, ie. student, entrepreneurial, business, etc.
• Investigate your heritage;
• Undertake a course to Teach English;
• Work on a cruise liner.;
• Crew a yacht. There is no upper age limit to do this;
• Volunteer on a kibbutz. Many kibbutzes take people up to the age of 70;
• Volunteer on a worthwhile project;
• Be a camp counselor in the USA-they take applicants up to the age of 35 and sometimes older;
• Sell items (duty-free) while on the road;
• Offer your services in return for free accommodation and board;
• Travel and work in your own country.
