Returning: B430

Channel [V]’s escapist series, in which Presenters check out working holidays around the globe, returns to air this week.

In the first episode, Kyle Linahan lives it up cruising around the Pacific exploring Maui and Honolulu. Hawaian Islands by boat. Lucky for some. He spends the time surfing, swimming and diving, learning how to earn money working as a boat deckhand.

Why keep working in that dead end job! Channel [V] brings you the ultimate guide to working holidays in the third season of its globe-trotting local production, B430! We’ll show you some of the coolest destinations on the planet and give you the essential guide to your working holiday there.

Hitting your screens Thursday 31 March at 5.00pm, B430 Season 3 takes you around the world and across Australia to uncover new experiences you gotta try before you turn 30. Our hosts, Danny Clayton, Jane Gazzo, Billy Russell and Kyle Linahan trek to eight new destinations to bring you a complete guide to the best jobs in the world. Yep, we’re following the rites of passage for so many young Aussies who have a crack at the ‘working holiday’, and you get to come along for the ride.

Now, we’re not talking mundane jobs like stuffing envelopes or data entry. These are working holidays with a difference that mix fun with the work. So what’s in store this season?

Kyle takes to the ocean as he lives the life of a boat deckhand exploring the Hawaiian Islands, then submerges himself in Malaysia as he becomes a diving instructor.

Jane hits the music scene in Miami, DJing at some of South Beach’s top clubs, then closer to home she heads to Cairns to work on the Great Barrier Reef.

Danny has a surfing safari ahead of him as he dons his wetsuit in France and hits the waves as a surfing instructor, then patrols the beaches of Bali working as a lifesaver.

Billy shreds it up on the Canadian mountains working a ski season, then goes on a working holiday with a difference as a volunteer in Thailand.

B430 is a celebration of self-discovery, new experiences, following your passions, and having a helluva good time doing it. Each of the eight episodes is guaranteed to inspire your own adventure, and the best part is we’ve done the homework for you. Channel [V] will show you where to go, how to get there, where to stay and how to get the most out of the experience.

It airs Thursdays at 5:00pm.
