I recently visited Tassie for the first time – Launceston is where I went for the Junction 2010 conference, and boy, what a lovely experience! I stayed only 2 night s and both nights was overwhelmed by the friendliness of the locals. This what happened: The first night I was trying to make my way [...]

The rented Toyota ute tore northwards along the empty highway linking Hobart and Launceston. A primeval landscape, littered with vast expanses of Summer yellow and corrugated sheets of intense heat. The howling wind swept up spectres of dust soon to become something else. Our gazes were unfocused and introspective. She was staring at the sand [...]

We have not traveled the world extensively but having just returned from Tasmania we wonder if there is any great need to. Call us ignorant or small minded and if you must judge and sentence us, please, please, please sentence us for the term of our natural lives to Tasmania!!

A trip to the east coast of Tassie took us to a little place named The Gardens. We were staying in an Aunt’s old ‘Shack’. The house was generator powered and had an old car stereo and a pot belly stove to keep us entertained for the week. We dined on fresh oysters daily, Janz [...]

After the first trip, we said we would definitely come back to [...]

Straight away my Chef’s instinct intuitively told me that Tasmania is a land blessed with great [...]

Well worth it to bring our Subaru and head for the rugged West Coast, Tarkine wilderness, beautiful Corrina and finally, The Gordon River paddle. Our first night spent camped on the beach at Black River was spectacular, a beautiful sunny [...]

Tasmania is a place I will always want to go back to. Last year Adam and I went to Tassie at the onset of winter. We took the Spirit from Melbourne and after a queasy ride over we finally hopped off and left in search of breakfast and some chocolate… That took us to Anver’s [...]

A recent short break touring Tasmania was the perfect antidote to a damp and gloomy Sydney winter. With an itinerary that included the majestic Cradle Mountain, rugged Bay of Fires, and pristine Wineglass Bay, Tassie revealed itself to be a land of jaw-dropping beauty. It is an enchanted land riven with lush green forests and wild, [...]
