Imperfection
If there is a characteristic about myself which I would always remark is imperfection. It really kills me, strong and negative self critic is a usual stream of thought for me. When doing something I would torture myself with bad thoughts, wondering if someone would just do it better, or thinking I a...
Back to the city
Today we drove back to Hobart and we visited the Mount Wllington. After that we dropped Marion off at the city center and we drove to the local animal sanctuary, Bonorong, really recommendable. There we could see the last nature Tassie wonder which we couldn't spot in the wilderness, the Tassie devi...
The land of the Giants
Our way south included passing by the ancient forests Tasmania has. Today we woke up in one of them, close to St Claire lake national park. We quickly had breakfast and then we visited lake St Claire. A beautiful spot, where you arrive if you do the overland track, a 4 days hike through the Cradle m...
Cascading
Today we are hangover, and we started to head south. First we stopped in Queenstown for brunch and then we continued passing by the Nelson's waterfalls, a beautiful walk in the rain forest, then Franklin river, also a beautiful hike in the rain forest which leads to a 360° view on the Franklin river...
Cradle mountain and more
Today we woke up a bit colder than usually, but full of energy. Today's plan was to do the hike the weather would allow in Cradle Mountain and see wombats in the wild. We had to drive about one hour to get to the national park entrance. From there we took a shuttle bus that takes you to the start of...
Towards the highlands
Yesterday we left the coast for the first time to see waterfalls and to sleep. It was dark and we just entered the camping area some locals advised us, or that's what we thought. We woke up in the middle of a rugby field. When we woke up and saw it, we quickly went on a side, while Marion was still...
The Bay of Fire
When the place you visit has such an epic name, you don't need to find a cool title for the post, you just use Bay of Fire and you add a photo of the place no need for more. After Bay of Fire we headed towards west, on our way to Cradle mountain and we stopped at the St Columba Waterfalls. Honestly...
Surfing 42° south
Waking up in the middle of the woods, next to a gravel road, breakfast by the beach, and after beer at a local brewery. This is how the day started. This all happened while moving north. On the way we spotted a coffee shop inside a container, or better explained, we spotted a container which happene...
A peaceful nap
Today the scenery where we woke up at was amazing. What would you do if you are at a place like this? Go out and enjoy it, and after plug the keys into the van and move to the north, closer to the mountains were we would hike today. That's what we did, we disappeared from there and had breakfast her...
The great east coast drive
Today we woke up early even though it was though (the night before gathering information around was though). We woke up early because we planned to go to MONA (Museum of Old and New Art) and then quickly go to grab the campervan and head north. Something interesting is that to head north on this sid...
Acknowledgement
So here I am, new trip, feeling guilty and having a mental block because I didn't finish my Peru blog. Whenever I think of adding the first entry to Tasmania's one, this thought of perfectionism comes up and blocks me. It really gets on the way and stops me from doing. This isn't an isolated thought...
