“Whether you’re a skier or not, working a season in Canada has to be the best job in the world. Aside from the bluebird skies, mind-blowing scenery and amazing nightlife – resorts like Whistler are full of people from all over the world doing the same thing as you. The inside jokes, the familiar faces, the songs in the bars that you’ll remember forever and will instantly take you back... for that summer or winter you’re part of something that may only last a season, but will stay with you a lifetime. Plus, with BUNAC, you don’t even have to find your own job. Now, that’s the dream.”

BUNAC Work Canada expert

“I decided to take the leap and apply for my Canada visa through BUNAC and their team helped me out so much with the application. They also discussed job roles with possible employers. They are such a great support system and helped me out with the stressful tasks of the application. I've been in Canada for eight months now – even though it's so cliche to say I'm literally living a dream! I work as a hostess at The Sidecut restaurant at the Four Seasons. My team are so wonderful to work with and I'm incredibly lucky to have made some really good friends so far on my Canadian journey.”
