1. Support from your friend, family member or partner

Taking on this challenge and going abroad on your own can be intimidating. We understand that. To ensure you will master this challenge, you can share this experience with another person to support each other! When you go abroad with your friend, family member or partner, you won’t miss them, you can help each other and are also less likely to become homesick! 

2. You always have someone by your side to do activities with

You don’t dare to do a bungee jump alone? Do you like cooking together? Or would you instead discover the nightlife with a friend? Having someone by your side is always nice! Since you won't be alone during your time abroad, you will dare to do things you wouldn't normally do. Step out of your comfort zone, gather all your courage and have the best adventures!

3. You can share the costs 

When going abroad together, you can also search for accommodation together and save a lot of money. Also, cooking together is a lot cheaper than only for yourself. Another example: When your feet hurt from exploring the city or dancing in a club, you can take a taxi home together. As you can see, sharing the costs with another person will make your time abroad much more affordable!

4. The fun starts already before your departure 

Brainstorming what you need to do before you leave is much more fun together! You can make a list of what you need to pack and organise before you go. That way you won't forget anything, and you'll be well prepared. How will you travel to your new destination? And what activities do you want to do there? Make a plan together so you don't forget any of the great hotspots in your new city! 

5. You’ll become friends for life 

You might as well already plan a day to fill a photo album with all your favourite memories because you will make plenty of those! Your work and travel buddy will become a friend for life as you'll get to know each other much better through your time abroad. You will experience many great moments together and be there for each other. Later, you can look back on this unique life experience and reminisce! 

6. Through good and through bad times

Do you have something on your mind? You can always talk to your travel buddy and 

find a solution together! You will share not only difficult moments, but also the best and most fun ones. Are you celebrating your birthday abroad for the first time? You can spend this special day with your travel buddy if you apply and work abroad together!

Would you like to work abroad with a friend, a family member or a partner? Both of you have to create a profile and apply individually for a job abroad. Then, you need to mention in your application process that you want to work in the same company and our recruiters will consider it. If you have further questions, you can ask them in our website chat!
