If you are thinking about going to Australia for a year with the Working Holiday Visa and taking the chance of living a great experience between work and vacation you won't forget, one of the first things to do is to book a cheap room for the first days.

Deciding to start a long journey in a destination such as Australia to work a bit abroad usually means you don't want to spend a lot of money on accommodation. Therefore, here we collected some of the cool and cheap hostels for you to book during your stay in Australia. But first of all, let's see why to choose a hostel in the first place!

WHY TO CHOOSE A HOSTEL

Arriving to a foreign country with the idea of staying there for a while, probably by yourself, is a tough decision indeed. You are going to count your money day by day, try to understand the world around you and a hostel, in this case, can help you, but let's see how:

1. You got the opportunity to meet new people who probably are there with the Working Holiday visa too and they can give you some advice.

2. Travelling by yourself is a brave decicision, but in hostels you could find people to share your trip with, or you can simply get in contact with people from different countries and discover their traditions and customs.

3. Hostel staff is usually friendly and willing to help you in planning your adventure through Australia.

4. Some hostels offer backpackers a room for some hours of work in exchange and this is a great way to start!
