I have the same question as Marilyn. I’m 35, have experience working in wineries and vineyards, and would love to work in New Zealand. Would love to know if there are any options available to me.

Thank you!

What about older workers. I’ve always dreamed of traveling the world and to be able to work my way across it is a wonderful notion. I’m 47, is that dream dead or is there still hope for me yet?

Thanks,

Glad you liked the article and pleased you will be linking to it. Am off now to visit your NZ Wine Info website…there’s nothing I like more than reading about where all the wineries are. I’m spoiled here in Canterbury cause the wineries are so close and easy to visit. Cheers, Liz

Great tip Craig, New Zealand is full of hostels and camp sites and it’s a cheap way of dealing with the accommodation issue. Many of the websites I listed in the article have information on finding such accommodation.

cheers,

Thanks Tim…must admit while researching the information, was seriously tempted to drop the day job and head for the ‘harvest trail’ myself. Who knows, maybe one day I will.

cheers,

I worked as a work and travel co-ordinator for a language school in Auckland for some time. I’d also recommend finding the hostels and camping sites in your desired area. The people working there know who’s going to pay well, be nice and where the work is.
