Internships in Australia

Accommodation details

Global Choices wants you to enjoy your stay in Australia and we are happy to assist with your accommodation arrangements. Following are brief descriptions of the accommodation options available to you:

Homestay

Global Choices recommends homestay as a great personal introduction and welcome to the daily life in Australia. Living with an Australian family will give you a unique insight into the culture and values of the country and assist in preparing you for the business environment.

All homestay families are carefully selected and keen to ensure that you enjoy your visit to Australia. After indicating your homestay preferences, Global Choices will take the time to make sure that you have a homestay provided to meet your specific needs.

The fees for homestay vary and are influenced by your choice of location. If you choose this option when you first arrive you will be asked to pay the equivalent of four weeks’ fees, after which you may pay the host family directly.

Hostels

Many interns prefer to find their own accommodation but they still ask us to arrange initial accommodation for their arrival. Several inexpensive and safe hostels are available in each location. Prices start from AUD$18 per night or AUD$125 per week. Specific information will be supplied at your request. For detailed information on hostels please visit www.hostelworld.com.

Shared accommodation

Shared accommodation is available in most locations. Many visitors choose to share a flat or unit with other Australian students or young singles and this option is popular for the independent interns who enjoy their own space. We strongly advise that you take the time to meet and view the premises for a share option after your arrival, as they will vary quite dramatically, as will the people providing the accommodation.

Do not hesitate to contact our staff should you have any questions.
