1 Nov 2012 jaimi asked
hey all! Is there anybody moving to London in 2013?
I am currently 22 years old living near Melbourne, Australia.
Next year i will be on a working holiday visa and plan on being there in March.
Is there anybody else thinking of doing the same thing? :)

Haha yeah it’s going to be crazy, I can’t wait. You don’t have to but some countries suggest you get an international licence, it only costs $25 and lasts a year. That allows you to drive in any country without the risk.

Hey ,I’m planning to do all those festivals and stuff too. I have heard about yacht week if u YouTube it it looks so much fun you have to have about 10 or more people per yacht though which makes it even more fun !

Hey guys, yeah that definitely looks alot better. May be a bit harder to book if you were going to do it with a group of people you hadnt met but im sure there a ways. We wont be getting our van until around the 9th of August but if we all end up getting tickets to tomorrowland we should look at meeting somewhere before hand.
Oh and Jaimi, i’ll be doing the exact same. Try and squeeze in as many different things as possible in the two years.

Hey all, hope you all had an awesome New Years. Just a quick post, is there anyone keen to do yacht week on the 17th-24th of August. We need a mixed crew of 6 and there is 2 of us already. Will be around €600 each to book one of the 50 yachts. If you are keen let me know and we can try and work something out :)
