So you’re coming up to halfway through your 2nd year visa and the idea of leaving Australia in just 6 months is unimaginable. But is it worth sacrificing half of your year in rural Australia just for one more year? Often the original 88 days is too much for many backpackers, in 2017 over 90000 backpackers attempted to do rural work, however less than 35000 were granted a 2nd year visa.
If you’re a European backpacker like myself who has spent their entire life in cities, the original 88 days was very painful. Living so far away from civilisation, crap pay and very unreliable hours, there is no motivation to put myself through that experience again.
However not all 88 days are made equal! If you could earn good hourly pay with reliable hours maybe it would be worth it? Thats what The 88th Day is attempting to deliver. With all our jobs based around Adelaide, you’re not far from civilisation at all, plus with hourly pay and reliable hours all combined with the cheap rental rates in Adelaide. You can start your 3rd year with plenty of money and a great experience behind you!
