    Why can't you go to Canada?

    I'd go to Sweden, Germany, the Netherlands, Norway. Maybe Iceland, but that just be because I've been seeing too much Iceland propaganda.

    Norway.

    You have to admire a country that spotted a world recession and stocked up.

    Clever lot

    Canada,its such a beautiful country and god help me I'm not sticking round this craphole for the summer!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,376 ✭✭✭✭rossie1977


    las vegas, its cheaper there now because of the recession than it has been for over 15 years, you can now get 700ft+ suites in five star hotels on the strip for the same price as a ran-down "hotel :rolleyes:" on gardiner street, or a fraction of the price of a tiny box room in manhattan, san francisco, london or paris

    if not there then the hills of donegal :D

    are you taking mind altering drugs if so can i have some ?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,665 ✭✭✭gary the great


    St Petersburg in Russia, nowhere like it.

    Cannot wait for the day Ryanair or any other airline do a direct flight...and they drop the visa requirements.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,972 ✭✭✭orestes


    Prague or Rome


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,031 ✭✭✭mumhaabu


    New Zealand is a good bet as I recently spoke to an "Immigration New Zealand" official at the Jobs and Recruitment fair at CeBIT 2009 in Hannover last week.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,123 ✭✭✭the whole year inn


    I also was in new york for three months so thats a no go. I am not waiting around here for long either . Whats norway like anyway.i was thinking outside europe


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,431 ✭✭✭✭Saibh


    Somewhere in Europe maybe Germany, at least you won't have too far to go to other countries to look for work if it didn't work out for you

    Yes I am.
    Not a hope. Theyz mine. Ive requested advance prescription till 2015, I will have a brief 'Spoon, cortans! Gobshïte!' moment, before deciding to go back or croak it from painfully boring realism of what is actually happening.

    Tip: Go to GP, froth at the mouth. Say yes to everything till consultation is done. You might even enjoy it.

    Mongolia is Outer Mongolia yo


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 634 ✭✭✭pierrot


    But i'd recommend to do a TEFL course and do a year in Japan or Korea


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,815 ✭✭✭✭galwayrush


    Italy for me, for the weather, food, and good wine .:cool:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,534 ✭✭✭FruitLover


    Want to go back to Okinawa :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,629 ✭✭✭Adiboo


    I'd like the go back to Japan. Do a full trip around the country this time.

    Iran, going in October.

    And Madagascar. Those three stick out in my mind right now.

    If you're just finished college i think you can still get a student visa.

    Or just go somewhere really hot!! - Brazil or Cuba, you'd be really rich there! :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,112 ✭✭✭flyton5


    I hear Rigel 7 is lovely this time of year. You can hitch a ride on my Klingon Bird of Prey. We have to make a quick time warp to the 20th century to pick up some humpback whales though...

    mumbai is top of my list, followed closely by tokyo

    I'd like to go to Japan.

    Asian women + love hotels + arcades = win


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,371 ✭✭✭✭Zillah


    If you have the money go backpacking around South America, it's awesome. The reason Canada is a no go for working is that the visas are all gone already, they start in December. I know because I have one :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 698 ✭✭✭nitrogen


    How about a working holiday visa for Japan.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,243 ✭✭✭kelle


    OP, what kind of a qualification have you got? If it's anything in the health profession, there are locum posts in the UK(except for Physiotherapy, where NZ seems the only outlet ATM). The UK is only across the water and, thanks to Ryanair is cheaper to get to and come home for the weekend.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,220 ✭✭✭✭Loopy


    I would go to Bali - best holiday I ever had..

    Not exactly possible unless you're black. Mugabe took the farms from all the whites a few years back. Most of them moved to Zambia after that. Those that didn't are in jail still.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 699 ✭✭✭LeahBaby


    Italy!!

    Would move there tommorrow.

    Well not tommorrow, but def thursday.

    Ah no, emmm South America would be pretty sweet right now! Or anywhere in Asia...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 634 ✭✭✭pierrot


    once you have a degree and are a native English speaker, you can teach in Japan. I did the working holiday and got by on bar work and private English lessons


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,685 ✭✭✭Tom65


    Go to Sweden. Not badly affected by the economic crisis, beautiful people, nice cities, great infrastructure.

    The downside is the weather. It's been snowing since feckin' November. Sick of the stuff.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,123 ✭✭✭the whole year inn


    All good ideas. Is america that fcuked right now. I would like to go to cali maybe vegas after. I m talking about any regular jobs any thing really.
