I just found out that Tasmanians are just as dishonorable as Canadians. There are certain activities and consequently certain parts of the body that should not be bitten. But apparently these fellas don’t adhere to the unwritten codex. Fuck you, I’ve had enough. I will kill every single mosquito. We Germans suck at almost everything,…

Still enthused by the culinary delights consumed at Eureka, we drove down to Binalong Bay. What a nice place. This is certainly one of the absolute highlights of our trip. Fantastic apartment (thru Air Bob  again, I mean AirBnB but since autocorrection insists on either Air Bob wtf? Or Airbus we’ll use Air Bob henceforth),…

We decided to take a little detour on purpose and take the southern route because that provided an excuse to stop by the beloved Eureka Farm again. Soooo delicious, again and again. I’m still heartbroken that I probably won’t be going there ever again. 😔 We also made another pitstop at St Mary’s and then…

Perhaps it’s time to make it clear that I really despise AirBnB. It’s a tax dodging scheme that gives ‚landlords‘ an unfair advantage by allowing them to ignore regulations that ‚official‘ businesses have to adhere to. Alas, it is impossible to find accommodation outside this scheme in some areas, so I have to use it…

There’s not a lot of accommodation around Freycinet NP, some boring luxury lodges and the rest is mainly through AirBnB. Which I don’t like but beggars can’t be choosers so, after avoiding a rip off attempt by one strange person to upsell I found us a nice place in Swannick. Spacious, clean, comfortable. The problem…

The Tasman Peninsula is a beautiful place, lots of dramatic coastline and stuff. We hiked up to Cape Raoul, fantastic dolerite cliffs with the sea banging against them all the way. This was the first time we came up against the grading system, again. I think I’ve elaborated on that enough in previous years, but…

So, we obviously started in Hobart. We stayed at a small accommodation just out of town, on Mt Nelson, beautiful views over the bay, very quiet and two lovely dogs. It’s called Signalman’s Cottage and I won’t call it a B&B because the B for breakfast, well, I’ll get back to that in a later…

Spiked anal plug plant, Nice beach, nice beach, new year’s eve dinner view ☺

Best tearoom, best food and I want to be adopted by these people please, bad bad tyre…

In order: Christmas elves on Qantas, room with a view and a dog, funny carousel for cartman’s imaginary friends, and honest sign in the best ice cream cart in Tassie! 😍
