working and living in zell am ziller

hello everybody, i added to this forum because i want to go to austria the next season. i live in canary island(spain) and i have difficulties to do snowboard every day, for this reason, i decided to do that: live in austria for 2 or 3 months and do snowboard. If normally, that is so expensive, that is what i want to find a job in a hotel, apartaments, or similar. Instead of receive money, i prefer can live where i will work.
I tell you this because you may help me with names of hotels there are, telefon numbers, or directly some of you work in a hotel and can give me an email to send my CV.
Also i was thinking to do an exchange. Someone who lives in zell am ziller house me for the period of 2 or 3 months and then he/she comes to my house. That could be very interesting.

So, i can´t say more, only that i hope my dream will be fact.

thank you very much, i wait your answer

I am scouring the web trying to find information on the same topic. I and my sister want to move out to Austria
http://www.mayrhofen.at/ I'm not sure how much of a help that will be but maybe we can help each other on this. I know your not looking for M-Hofen but there are listing on the website for people that own flats, hotels, and hostels. I asked them (for those who had email) if they could start me in the right direction.

Okay I looked at some stuff a bit ago and uncovered some possible help
info@snowtrex.com <info@snowtrex.com> It is a UK/Germany based company that rents out apartments

http://www.oehweb.at/index.php?id=3&no_cache=1
This is a site geared towards college kids for apartment flats.

These are close to the Zillertal areas. I'm just throwing stuff at the wall hoping it may stick. I also found http://www.tripadvisor.com/ShowTopic-g190445-i792-k281261-

From Trip Advisor.com. On this site there was another
kind soul looking for a glacial valley to snuggle in

Q "Hello everyone. I am in the process in getting a work and travel visa for Austria. I plan on staying in Innsbruck to work and ski.

How hard is it to find a long term place to stay (about 6 months)? and what types of places are offered ( apparments, houses, hostels)?

What are the the average costs for renting per month in town?"

A "It isn`t very hard to find a place to live in Innsbruck.The average cost of a Flat is about 500euros per month. But you can make flat share which makes it more cheaper. There are also two youth hostels, but not for such a long stay.

My advise for you would be to find a job in a hotel because then you are close to the mountains and you don`t have to pay for food and the stay.

It is very hard to find a bar, restaurant, or similar where you can work under the table. Because at the main season the police is watching the companies, so it wouldn`t be very advisable."

A "The main source for finding an appartment still is the daily newspaper (Tiroler Tageszeitung). There are also some lists at the main building of the university. But I found a site from the ÖH( this is the union of students) in the internet where you can search for a place. Unfortunately, everything in german. Which is WHY i recommend freetranslation.com ( It's not prefect but it's a start)

Here is the link:

http://oehinfo.uibk.ac.at/indexstart.html"

Usually my stuff is a lot more organized then this :D. I CERTAINLY hope this helps. Prehaps living in Spain you can order a newspaper from Tirol??? That may also help 8)

PS
HOT CAR!!!!
