it is a change that goes on, deep and permanent, in the ideas of living”
- Miriam Beard
Why go on an OE or working holiday?
Because you can! Because it’s a Kiwi thing to do. Even Wikipedia agrees… “Overseas experience (OE) is a New Zealand term for an extended overseas working holiday. Sometimes referred to as “The big OE” in reference to the extended duration of the travel – typically at least one year, and often extending far longer. It is believed to have been coined by New Zealand cartoonist and columnist Tom Scott.”
