Looking for work in Europe

I'm currently looking at doing a bit of a jaunt through Europe with the possibility of extending it if I can find some sort of design or illustration work.

Can anyone shed light on a good approach for looking/applying for postions over there?

I think it's best if you try to arrange some meetings with developers before you leave... some of the large studios in Europe (UK in particular) can be very difficult to find once you're there, some don't even display a name on their offices.

You could also try emailing a recruitment agency such as datascope who handle a lot of European devs job placements.

Anyway good luck mate, you'll no doubt run into a few Aussies and Kiwis over there... there's usually 1 or 2 of them hidden deep inside each UK dev studio.
