    You can't find the cost of a visa online????
    You can't find the cost of a flight to Australia online???

    what have you searched for? The www.immi.gov.au is the visa page (which will have everything you need inc prices)

    Working Holiday Visa $235 (€170-175)
    Travel Insurance €130 approx
    Flights €550 -700 (as much as you want to spend)
    Hostel in Perth for a week-Double Bed, Own Room $400-600

    Phone Unlocking €20 (Can get cheaper/free but can be dodgy)
    Sim Card $3-10?
    Open Bank account-free, but possibily $50 has to be lodged to activate it.

    Then if your planning on doing your regional work straight away then i'm sure €1500 would be more than plenty to last 2-3 weeks until you found a job.

    If your travelling first for a while you would probally want a good €3000 but the more you have the better.

    For flights google skyscanner and google backpacker travel insurane, I cant think of the name now. But there was a thread on here that I think said that some insurance doesn't really cover you (or yo that effect) alot of T&C.
