Back in 2008 when Tiger Airlines launched their new routes in Australia with very cheap introductory fares, I grasped the chance to gather some close friends for a long weekend in Tasmania.

I’ve always felt privileged growing up in a beautiful country like Australia, it’s a place of great weather, breathtaking scenery, multiculturalism, hygiene and very friendly people, but I think Tasmania has to be the epitome of all those things.

Sitting around the dining room table at Wattle Park in Port Germein Gorge, South Australia IS A WORLD APART from Tassie. Two families pouring over brochures and planning what was going to be a great family get-away. In October last year 4 adults and 4 kids set out on an adventure of a life time! We planned [...]
