Working holiday is really a great life experience, we met a lot of friends from all over the world, experienced the unique working environment that we've never been done before besides the 9-6 office jobs.

We've applied for a packing job at a fruit packing factory while we were in Hastings, the work is scheduled to start somewhere next week, therefore we have decided to go back there to work, because the work at the current vineyard will be temporarily over and new job vacancies will only available on mid march, we don't want to waste our time waiting here, therefore we'll go back to Hastings this weekend. The job vacancies in the vineyard is kind of seasonal. It is not a short term permenant job which can be secured as plan.

Since the work in Hastings is unstable, we've been jobless for a week, by looking at our travel fund, it is not good to be jobless. Therefore we've decided to go to Blenheim, South Island, heard from some friends that there have more temporary job opportunities.

Currently we are working in vineyard at Hastings, North Island. Mostly doing the leaf plucking, so that the grapes can absorb enough sunlight to grow.
