AUSTRALIA
WHO CAN DO IT
The Subclass 417 can be done by citizens of United Kingdom, South Korea, Germany, Canada, the Netherlands, Japan, Taiwan, Ireland, Malta, Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Hong Kong, Finland, Cyprus, France, Italy, Belgium, Iceland, Greece, Estonia and Latvia. For this class you just have to be between 18 and 30, be healthy and of good character (not a criminal). You cannot bring any dependent children. You also need (but this isn't always checked) sufficient funds, which amount to 5000 AUD.
The Subclass 462 can be done by citizens of Argentina, Bangladesh, China, Chile, Indonesia, Malaysia, Poland, Portugal, Slovak Republic, Slovenia, Spain, Thailand, Turkey, United States, Uruguay and Hungary. Except for United States citizens, all other need an university degree, including the requirements written above.
HOW LONG CAN YOU STAY
Once your visa is approved, you have 12 months to reach Australia. You can stay one year once you reach Australia. If you want to stay another year, it can be done but you need to work 3 months (or 88 days) in rural areas designated by the Government.
WHERE CAN YOU APPLY
NEW ZEALAND
WHO CAN DO IT
Citizens from the following countries can apply: Argentina, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Chile, China, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Hungary, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Japan, South Korea, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malaysia, Malta, Mexico, Netherlands, Norway, Peru, Philippines, Poland, Singapore, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Taiwan, Thailand, Turkey, United Kingdom, United States, Uruguay and Vietnam.

You need to come primarily for holidays, you need a return ticket or enough money to pay for one and be of good health and character.
HOW LONG CAN YOU STAY
As for Australia, you have 1 year to reach New Zealand and one year once you get there. There is an extension for 3 months, but cost-wise it isn't the best choice (a visa costs 400 NZD, a 3 month extension 200 NZD)
