Before you pop the first bottle.

Adelaide is Australia's fifth city and its most relaxed, known for its manageable size and over 200 days of sunshine a year. Mediterranean climate: dry, warm summers and mild winters. Adelaide Metro covers buses, trains and trams with a single MetroCard. The Barossa and McLaren Vale vineyards are an hour from the centre, and the quality of life is among the highest in the country.

What are you going to do here?

Work

Wine and hospitality, all year.

Adelaide is South Australia's capital and one of the country's most manageable cities. The Barossa and McLaren Vale vineyards hire for harvest between February and April. The rest of the year, festivals and hospitality keep the job market moving.

LIFESTYLE

Tram to the beach, vineyards at the weekend.

Adelaide is famous for its size: everything is 20 minutes away. Glenelg beach is at the end of the tram line from the centre, and the Barossa and McLaren Vale vineyards an hour by car. The Adelaide Fringe is the second largest arts festival in the world.

Community

The city that feels like a town.

Australia's festival city, with a compact centre and wineries nearby. Study English and explore hospitality opportunities.
