Short distances on great roads with little traffic (I live in Sydney!) allowed me the time, space and rare pleasure of being able to indulge my photographer’s eye (alas with just an i-phone) from a fun perspective.

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.

We love Tasmania, for so many reasons – the pace of life, the scenery, the food, the people and the natural beauty. One of our favourite things to do whenever we stay is to find somewhere off the beaten track (you don’t have to go far), get out your torch and start spotlighting- there is [...]

One of the thrills of touring my wondrous isle, showing it off to friends and their children, is to see it again and again through their fascinated eyes. And, every time, even this regular traveller discovers new gems. Most praise is for Tasmania’s diversity of landscapes, snow-capped mountains, the sunny beauty of the East Coast, [...]
