Like a lot of piston headers, i find myself wondering if the grass is greener on the other side. I am young (ish - 26) and i have no debts or real responsiblities to tie me to England, so if i am going to leave for pastures new, now is the time.

I was hoping that the PH masses could help me by pointing me in the direction of resources that will give me information of jobs and opportunities abroad.

I am specifically looking at Hong Kong, Dubai and Australia.

Searching google has not turned up a great deal so far. Can you help?

If it ain't too late.

I'd get your Working Holiday Visa for Australia, and stop off Dubai and/or Hong Kong as funds allow.

WHV takes no time to do and provided you don't have a string of murder convictions you'll get one easily.

Check out HK and Dubai en route, go and have fun in Australia for a year, picking up work when and where you can (I never had a problem finding work, nor did anyone I know)

When you've had a year's fun, weigh up the options you have and start looking for work where ever you liked best, or head somewhere new.

I did Austrlia last year, and had a great time. I'm in New Zealand now and probably going to HK later in the year. Dubai is an option too, but haven't been there yet.

Belatedly to the OP: If you know anything about controlling financial derivatives then I might have something for you. Holland though. Not so exotic, but there are some benefits.
