Argentina

By Eloïse, who spent nine months exploring Argentina. To learn more about her time in Argentina, read our interview with Eloïse.

Pros of a WHV in Argentina

1. A rich culture

I’d been interested in Argentinian culture for a long time. I’m delighted to have had the opportunity to immerse myself in every aspect of the local culture: music, food, art, local traditions, and even football. Discovering such a rich culture on your WHV is an incredible experience.

2. The people are warm and welcoming

Before my WHV, I had heard about the wonderful hospitality of the Argentinians, and I was not disappointed! From the Uber driver, to the local shopkeeper, to the host who welcomed me into his home for a few nights, not to mention the new friends I made, the welcome I received was always warm and friendly. This friendliness left its mark on me.

3. Incredible nature

This is probably the best part of my time in Argentina; the landscapes I saw are forever etched in my memory. The nature in Argentina is wild and untouched. Even when you drive the desert roads, which stretch for hundreds of kilometres, the views you pass by are fascinating and unique.

4. Experiencing a new daily routine

My WHV in Argentina allowed me to discover another way of life. Although I remained faithful to some of my habits from home, such as being punctual, I also adopted local customs, such as eating dulce de leche or having dinner late at night. Immersing myself in Argentine culture was enriching, and it allowed me to better understand the country and its people.

5. Easy to travel across the country

Getting around Argentina is easy thanks to a well-developed network of public transport. You can travel throughout the country by bus or plane. Before my WHV, I was afraid of the long distances and the thought of endless hours of travel in this immense country. In fact, it ended up being part of what I enjoyed the most about my trip (well, I enjoyed almost every minute of it!).

6. A great opportunity

For my citizenship (French), the WHV in Argentina is free to apply for, and is open to anyone up to the age of 35. It is a great opportunity for those who wish to discover a new country while they are still young enough.

Cons of a WHV in Argentina

1. Economic instability

I went to Argentina without a thorough understanding of the problems they are facing economically. Although I don’t regret going, if I had researched the situation carefully before leaving, it’s likely that I might have thought twice about a WHV in Argentina. I had to get used to fluctuating exchange rates, making money transfers, and carrying large wads of cash everywhere. Economic instability can be concerning but you can adapt quickly once you move there.

2. Difficulties finding a job

I thought I’d be able to find work quickly to fund my stay and my travels but, in reality, it turned out to be complicated. The salaries of most jobs available to WHV-makers are low and it’s hard to save money. For those who want to travel around the country, volunteering can be a more viable solution.

3. The WHV isn’t widely known

Many administrative agents and employers don’t know enough about how the WHV works, and many Argentinians aren’t used to encountering working holiday makers. Thus, you have to be patient, and you often have to explain your visa in detail to people.

Brazil

By Tatiana, who spent a year in Brazil, including nine months in Rio de Janeiro.

Pros of a WHV in Brazil

1. Good transportation

In Rio, at least, public transport runs pretty well in the southern part. There is a subway that covers almost all the main neighbourhoods and it is clean, fast and functional. There are also buses that serve the whole city, especially places where there is no subway service (like Humaitá or Jardim Botânico). The use of Uber and the local rideshare app “99” is common, and this is a safe way of getting around.

To go to other parts of Brazil from Rio, there is a fairly extensive network of buses and, of course, you can fly between cities.

2. Friendly locals

Brazilians are warm, pleasant, polite and generous by nature. Good manners towards others are at the heart of their relationships. Meeting new people is especially easy in Rio, because the cariocas (local residents) are very open and love to party. Even if you can’t speak Portuguese well, there will always be someone patient trying to help you. Locals are also funny and love to chat about anything and everything!

3. Stunning landscapes

Brazil is a sublime country. It is tropical, and you are surrounded by the sea, forests, mountains, etc. It’s sunny all year round and the climate is perfect for exploring outdoors: 30 °C on average, and it drops down to around 20 °C in winter.

4. Vibrant lifestyle

In Rio, life is pleasant (for the people who are not in need). Life is all about enjoying the sunshine, relaxing on the beach, live entertainment, sport, food and music. People get up early in the morning to go for a hike, or run/cycle along the waterfront before work. You can have a beer/caipirinha with your friends after work, or see a street samba.

The beach in Rio on the weekend is like its own city within the city. Different parts of the beach has its own atmosphere and its regulars. It’s the best meeting place for cariocas!

In short, it’s not possible to get bored and there is always something to do.

Cons of a WHV in Brazil

1. Difficult to find work

It’s hard to find work across the country; even more so in Rio. There is a persisting and harsh economic crisis, the local currency has reached historically low rates, and there is high unemployment. It’s a sensitive issue if a business hires “gringos” over struggling qualified locals.

You should come with much more than the minimum amount of funds required to apply for the WHV. It is better to come with significant economic means, allowing you to live without a job if necessary. Even if you find a job, salaries will be lower than you’re used to at home.

There are more opportunities in Sao Paulo, where international companies are located, but you will need to rely on networking, being in the right place at the right time, etc. Finally, it is essential to speak Portuguese to have a chance of securing employment!

I mostly worked freelance as a digital nomad. For a few months, I did work in marketing for a real estate agency in Ipanema. I earned much less than I would usually be paid for my skillset.

2. Issues with safety

Rio has a bad global reputation, but the southern part of ​​Rio is generally fine. This area is the richest of Rio’s four zones and is mainly full of tourists, so you should be safe as a foreigner here.

You have to take more precautions than you might be used to at home, e.g. don’t walk down the street with your valuable objects and jewellery showing; don’t speak in a foreign language too loud to advertise you aren’t a local; don’t stay out on dark/empty streets at night; don’t go walking alone; don’t wander into favelas, etc.

The secret is to blend in as much as possible, and to relax! It won’t necessarily make you look like a carioca but people will, at least, be able to see that you live here because you don’t have fear written all over your face.

In the evening, and especially if you’re going home alone, it’s better to take an Uber/99. This is applicable even if you only live a short walk away. In the event of an assault, just give up everything valuable you have on you. Don’t try to argue, refuse, or struggle; it’s not worth risking your life.

In the year we spent in Brazil, we didn’t have any problems with assault or theft, and we didn’t even witness any violence.

3. You need to know Portuguese

It’s important to be aware that, unlike many countries in South America, Brazil is not Spanish-speaking! I already mentioned it for job searching, but speaking Portuguese is also crucial for meeting people. Without knowing any Portuguese, it is much more difficult to build relationships, unless you happen to meet a Brazilian who speaks English (more likely in Sao Paulo).

4. It can be hard to make friends

Although I talked about the locals being friendly, it is still difficult to make “in depth” friendships. Relationships between people are quite similar to those in North America: the initial contact can be super polite and warm, but it’s not easy to go any deeper than a surface level conversation.

Personally, it doesn’t bother me too much, because I have been an expat/nomad for quite some time. I have become less attached to relationships, so I take them as they come. Like everything in travel, you have to adapt.

5. Visible inequality

There are huge inequalities that are visible every day, especially in Rio. From one street to another, you can go from luxury housing to a favela. It can be heavy on the heart, especially when you’ve just arrived and aren’t used to seeing obvious poverty.

Rio has six million inhabitants and 90% of them live outside of the affluent southern zone, which shows the intense inequality this city faces. Note that, except for a few exceptions or if a Brazilian is accompanying you, it is totally inadvisable to travel outside of the southern area.

If you live in Brazil, you will realise that it’s an enormous privilege to be able to travel and enjoy WHVs; to be considered as “rich” by most locals, even if you aren’t classed as rich back home.

Chile

By Robin and Floriane, who spent eight months in Chile, including one month on Easter Island and almost three months in Patagonia.

Pros of a WHV in Chile

1. Diverse landscapes

Extreme landscapes of every kind come together in the same country: arid deserts in the north (Atacama), isolated islands (Easter Island, Chiloé, Navarino), the snow-capped peaks of the Andes, volcanoes, fjords, glaciers… There really is something for everyone and each region has its own characteristics. Each new landscape feels like you’re in a different country when, in reality, you are still in Chile!

2. The wildlife

Chile is a haven for animal lovers. You can see everything from alpacas, viscachas (like a cross between a rabbit and a chinchilla), condors and pumas to penguins, dolphins, and more! There is no need to go to the zoo because you can observe animals everywhere: during hikes, on the side of the road, during boat crossings, etc.

3. The opportunity to discover Easter Island

This small island in the middle of the Pacific is known for being one of the most remote islands in the world, and for its Moais (stone statues of heads). It happens to be part of Chile (although it feels more reminiscent of Polynesia), making your WHV a perfect time to explore this extraordinary island.

4. Large, dynamic cities

If you like city life, you will easily find somewhere you enjoy living, such as Santiago, Valparaíso or Punta Arenas. Santiago is huge, with nearly six million inhabitants, but its neighbour “Valpo” offers a quieter version of city life. Puerto Montt is the gateway to Patagonia, and Punta Arenas is a major port city, focused on trade. Cities in the north (like Arica or Iquique) are more focused on the mining industry.

5. Lots of outdoor activities

Chileans love to get outside! Common activities include hiking and trekking, surfing and sandboarding, paragliding, kayaking, diving, cycling, and so on. Unique experiences include excursions to glaciers or volcanoes. Ultimately, there is plenty to do for everyone, regardless of your level of skill and your budget.

Cons of a WHV in Chile

1. Intense weather

Patagonia is known for crazy winds, humidity and cold temperatures, while the north of Chile is very hot and dry (it can reach 50 °C in summer in Atacama). The climate is more temperate in the middle of the country. You must adapt to radical changes in the weather if you plan to move around during your WHV.

2. It’s hard to get around outside of the cities

If you don’t have a vehicle, you will be dependent on public transport, which is rare outside of the major cities. For example, on the Carretera Austral, some buses only run once or twice a week. This also means compromising on the places you want to visit, the activities you want to do, etc., since the buses can’t get you everywhere in Chile.

Hitchhiking is quite widespread and can compensate for the lack of public transport, but you have to consider the safety aspect to hitchhiking.

3. High cost of living

Contrary to what one might think, life is very expensive in Chile and salaries are low. You need to have plenty of savings if you plan to travel around the country!

4. The lack of charm of urban areas

The cities in Chile are more or less built on the same model, so they are not very unique. The streets are often dirty and it can be a difficult adjustment to come back to the city after several days or weeks travelling in nature.

Colombia

By Lola, who lived in Medellín.

Pros of a WHV in Colombia

1. Friendly locals

I have rarely met such kind and helpful people. Making friends with a Colombian means having a friend you can count on. Colombians are extremely warm and all the foreigners I have met have agreed that the people in Colombia are truly exceptional.

I was put in touch with a Colombian who was a friend of my former roommate in Sydney. She immediately offered to host me for the first few days of my WHV. I stayed in touch with her and she helped me with many things during my time in Colombia. I met her friends and they became my friends, too.

2. The dancing

Colombians always come up to you in the bars and encourage you to join in and dance!

3. Carefree attitudes

Life in Colombia helps you forget your problems. It is very rare, if not impossible, to meet a Colombian who complains or moans. Their joy is infectious and it makes you feel like life is good.

4. The change of scenery

South American countries are different to what I’ve experienced back home. It is always interesting to try something different and discover new ways of thinking.

5. Immersion in the local culture

There are a lot of tourists in Colombia today, but working holiday makers are rare. This is nice because it forces us to become truly immersed in the culture. You have to spend time with Colombians instead of only speaking to working holiday makers, which pushes you into befriending the locals.

6. Beautiful landscapes

Colombia is full of splendour and the diversity of landscapes is clearly a major plus. You have the Pacific Ocean to the west and the Caribbean Sea to the north, plus mountains and the Amazon rainforest. Its also close to other South American countries, giving you more opportunities to explore the continent.

7. The city of Medellín

This city is absolutely amazing! The climate is perfect, the people are lovely, and the landscapes are beautiful. The city is in the process of rediscovering itself and growing, so it is attracting lots of new people. The city puts on activities for its citizens, like the INDER program, which offers free sports training for anyone living in Medellín to promote physical activity.

Cons of a WHV in Colombia

1. The fearful side of Colombians

Because of the country’s history, Colombians are easily frightened by situations that seem harmless to us. This is completely legitimate, but it can be stifling in the long term. If we only listen to Colombians, we can quickly be overcome by fear and be scared to try anything new.

Personally, my freedom is very important and I am a bit of a daredevil, so I had a hard time explaining to my Colombian friends why they shouldn’t worry about me. For example, I wanted to buy a skateboard to get around Medellín but I had never tried skateboarding before. I asked about taking lessons but my friends thought I was crazy and that it would be too dangerous. Even the Decathlon salesman wasn’t too thrilled to sell me a skateboard and, with his typical Colombian kindness, insisted I buy some protective gear and said he was worried about me.

2. Safety concerns

There is still a lot of inequality in Colombia, so it is essential to be vigilant and listen to the advice of locals.

3. Poverty

A large part of the population is very poor and it can be difficult to face this reality on a daily basis. When I arrived in Medellín, I was shocked at what I saw, but when I went to the coast, I truly understood what poverty really was. After that, Medellín seemed completely normal and the barrios there no longer seemed quite as bad.

4. The food

Food in Colombia is good but not too varied, and it can often be too rich. If you want to eat healthily and have lots of fruits and vegetables, you will need to cook for yourself instead of eating out.

5. The mountains

For people who don’t like mountains, it is possible to feel claustrophobic from time to time because the landscape is very mountainous and they tower over you.

Note that this WHV is currently only offered to French citizens (plus Chile, Mexico and Peru, as part of the Pacific Alliance).

Ecuador

Pros of a WHV in Ecuador

1. Nature and landscapes

Ecuador offers spectacular nature and varied panoramic scenery. From the sunny Pacific coast to the majestic Andean mountains, the lush Amazon and the famous Galapagos Islands, this country is enchanting.

2. The people

Like other South American countries, Ecuadorians are known for their hospitality and friendliness. Their culture, deeply imbued with pre-Columbian traditions, values ​​community and sharing. The locals will offer you a very warm welcome.

3. Cost of living

For many WHV-makers, life in Ecuador remains far more affordable than life at home. Even with a modest budget, you can enjoy daily life without too many financial constraints, thanks to affordable prices on housing, food and transport.

4. The climate

If you want to experience a whole year of mild weather without any frost or cold, Ecuador is an ideal destination. Although the days have shorter hours of daylight and earlier sunsets than in other countries, the average temperature is a pleasant 25 °C all year round.

5. The WHV is free

A significant advantage of choosing this WHV destination is that the application for a 12-month WHV in Ecuador is completely free!

Cons of a WHV in Ecuador

1. Political and economic instability

The country is currently going through a phase of significant political and economic instability. This situation contributes to a reduced cost of living, but also low wages and restrictive government measures, such as curfews and limitations.

2. Issues with safety

The instability of the country also leads to high levels of risk in certain areas of the country. Before committing to a WHV here, it is crucial to check the current situation and consider if the area in which you want to settle is safe for foreigners.

3. The job market

Finding work in Ecuador is difficult. The jobs available are often low-paid, requiring you to survive on your own savings. Skilled jobs are rarely offered to temporary working holiday makers, as employers will favour local candidates who can make long-term commitments. Volunteering remains a good alternative, where you can see the country while saving money by working for bed and board.

4. Accessibility to services

Outside of major cities, access to high-quality services like doctors and hospitals may be limited. It is recommended to find out about the services available before committing to living in a specific area.

Mexico

By Manon, who chose Mexico for her first experience abroad.

Pros of a WHV in Mexico

1. Year-round sunshine

Seeing the sun all year round has incredible effects on morale and your mental health.

2. The people

Mexicans are generous, lovely people, who welcome you with a big smile and open arms. They will show genuine interest in you and what you have to say. It is easy to make friends, and their sense of humour is contagious.

3. The landscapes

Mexico is magnificent. There are landscapes for everyone (mountains, desert, jungles, waterfalls, beaches, cities, etc). One year is not enough to see everything, between the diverse mix of landscapes, fauna and flora, and archaeological sites.

4. The gastronomy

Mexican cuisine is loved around the world, and the love is completely justified because the food here is top notch.

5. The music

From mariachis to Luis Miguel or salsa in a Mexican bar, there is always somewhere to go and have a good time with friends while listening to live music.

6. Easy to find somewhere to live

It’s much easier to find accommodation in Mexico than in many other WHV destinations. Rent is generally affordable, from classic shared accommodation to private apartments or huge houses, often with a balcony/roof terrace included for you to enjoy the good weather.

7. The dating scene

Although I am somewhat joking, foreigners have a good reputation in Mexico, so working holiday makers can have quite a bit of success in finding a sweetheart in Mexico!

8. The cost of living

Although you will need to watch your funds if it takes you a while to find a job, the cost of living is likely more affordable than you’re used to back home, and your money can go further in pesos.

Cons of a WHV in Mexico

1. Visa administration

Upon arriving in Mexico, you have to fill out paperwork to obtain temporary resident status. If you are lucky enough to find a job, you have to complete more paperwork to add your work to your temporary residence. All this can take up to one year (the length of the WHV!), so it often seems a waste of time and money to be made to complete these procedures.

2. You need to have savings to survive

The pay is very low in Mexico, and it’s not easy for foreigners to pick up “odd jobs”. You either need to have enough money saved up to just use the WHV for travel, or you need to look for a job in your field in order to find a decent paycheque. Good qualifications are a significant advantage when looking for well-paying jobs. Also, speaking English can help, especially if you want to work in tourism.

3. Spending your first few weeks on the toilet

It takes time to adapt your digestive system to Mexican food. Your body has to get used to the new environment, the new bacteria, the new ingredients, etc.

4. Safety concerns

Like many South American countries, it can be considered a risky country for foreigners. It is essential to be vigilant and follow basic safety advice. Make sure you’re aware of any potential scams you could encounter.

Peru

By Marie, who spent seven months in Peru.

Pros of a WHV in Peru

1. Nature and landscapes

Peru has varied climates, which results in diverse landscapes. Jungles, deserts, the Pacific coast, mountain ranges, etc.; there is something for everyone! Peru is a haven of lush nature.

2. Low cost of living

It is easy to afford accommodation and food. However, watch out for “tourist” prices on things like restaurants and excursions, because then the bills can quickly mount up.

3. Access to transport and travel

The bus network is well developed in Peru, as are connections between villages. Travelling around the country is smooth. You can also opt for internal flights, but these should be booked in advance to avoid paying high prices.

3. Safety

We often hear bad things about South America, like people jumping on you with weapons as soon as you near the favelas. In reality, Peru is a relatively calm country. Personally, I did not feel in danger; sometimes I was looked at and stared at, but you just keep moving. Of course, there are areas to avoid at certain times, such as the historic centre of Lima at night.

4. The food

Peru is a joy for culinary discoveries: carob syrup, sapote, ground pear, chirimoya, humitas, patacones, banana maracuyá… The list is long and you’ll have plenty of unknown fruits or local specialties to experience for the first time during your WHV.

5. A rich culture

Peru takes you back in time with Arequipa, Machu Picchu, Nazca lines and the city of Cusco. This country is a goldmine of history and you can learn more about its Inca past and pre-Columbian civilisations.

6. The people

Peruvians are generally happy people who like to party. You will feel a warm atmosphere every day, from the kindness of the locals that you’ll get to know.

7. A change of scenery

You will be immersed in a colourful universe that is far from your usual scenery at home. It is invigorating to come face to face with a llama at a pedestrian crossing in the streets of Cusco, to see iguanas in the park in Piura, or to have your hair touched by free-roaming parrots!

Cons of a WHV in Peru

1. The language barrier

Even if English is spoken in tourist areas, as soon as you go off the beaten track, it is necessary to know Spanish. Speaking Spanish allows you to immerse yourself in local culture. From a practical point of view, it’s also important to understand key information like prices or the conditions of an apartment lease. Speaking and understanding Spanish will make your life a lot easier.

2. Difficulties finding work

People don’t usually go to Peru to make a fortune. Salaries are low, and it is recommended to have lots of savings when you depart for your WHV, even if the cost of living is lower than you’re used to. It can be hard to find a job if you don’t speak Spanish.

3. The WHV is not really known in Peru

Many companies and administrative officials are unaware of the existence of a WHV. This can make certain procedures more complicated, whether it’s applying for a job, opening a bank account or crossing the border by bus (there is usually no problem if travelling by plane, however).

Uruguay

By Lise, who went to Uruguay with her partner, and worked as a translator in Montevideo.

Pros of a WHV in Uruguay

1. Quality of life

Uruguay is the most socially and economically advanced country in South America. Not everything is perfect, of course, but the quality of public services and infrastructure (roads, medical care, Wi-Fi, public transport, etc.) is far superior to the situation in other South American countries. Even though opportunistic theft and burglaries do happen, Uruguay is mostly a very safe country.

2. Not overly touristy

Uruguay is not really a tourist hotspot, so this is the perfect opportunity to try a working holiday off the beaten track! Unlike some South American countries, whose economy is largely based on tourism, you are less likely to be scammed by unscrupulous locals taking advantage of foreigners. It is easier to blend in with the Uruguayans.

3. The friendly and relaxed pace of life

Maybe it’s clichéd, but the majority of Uruguayans are very nice. People in the street, at the supermarket, or in a restaurant are friendly and smiling. It’s customary for everyone to address each other informally, calling each other “joven”, “vecino”, “compañero” or “amigo”, even if it’s a complete stranger.

Uruguayans are also known for their “tranquilo”/relaxed pace of life. It can be a real relief compared to the chaos, stress and feelings of loneliness that many other cities across the world suffer from.

4. The city of Montevideo

Unless you go to the coast or the countryside, there is a good chance that you will spend your WHV in Montevideo. Even if the city itself is not necessarily pretty, it is well connected to the rest of the country, and to Buenos Aires in Argentina. For Uruguay, it’s a big city (1.5 million inhabitants, compared to 14 million in Buenos Aires…). It has a good bus network, and is bordered by beaches and coastline.

Although it’s not very touristy, the city still has plenty of museums and events like carnivals, concerts and shows. You have to get used to the city at first, but you certainly won’t be bored during your WHV!

5. Cannabis

Yes, it’s worth mentioning that cannabis consumption is legal in Uruguay. You can definitely sit outside your house and enjoy a joint without any worry of being interrupted by the police.

Note that to be able to buy or grow it, you must be considered a Uruguayan resident and be registered on the national consumer register. As a working holiday maker, therefore, it’s not possible to buy cannabis legally. Your local friends, however…

Cons of a WHV in Uruguay

1. The cost of living

This is the big con for the WHV in Uruguay, Life is very expensive, especially in terms of food/drink and the cost of hostels/accommodation when travelling. Compared to other South American countries, it hurts.

2. Low wages

Wages are low in Uruguay. For jobs in restaurants or bars with tips, you can hope to increase your income by 30 to 50%. However it is only customary, not mandatory, to leave a tip, and it is still a terribly low wage compared to the high cost of living. The minimum wage in Uruguay is around US$450 per month. For a position similar to mine (e.g. as a translator/language teacher), expect to earn between US$625 and US$1,000 per month.

3. The lack of “exoticism”

When we think of South America, we think of the Andes, the Amazon, Patagonia… Well, you won’t find any of that in Uruguay. Apart from some very pretty (but crowded) beaches, Uruguayan landscapes are not particularly dreamy.

The same goes for culture; most Uruguayans are more or less distant descendants of Europeans, so there is less culture shock than in other South American countries. Keep in mind that this is a young country, whose pre-Columbian history has been erased and whose cities (including Montevideo) have only really started developing from the 19th century.

4. Difficult to travel around

If you want to explore the continent more, note that only a few places (e.g. Santiago or Lima) can be reached from Montevideo by direct flight. For most other destinations, you have to travel to Buenos Aires first. Therefore, you have to allow extra time and money when planning short trips outside of Montevideo.
