For our latest Instameet, we headed off for the lush and tranquil Mount Field National Park to witness the changing of the Fagus, Tasmania’s only deciduous plant. Mount Field is also celebrating its 100th anniversary this year so our visit couldn’t have come at a better time to help promote the park and raise awareness … More Mount Field Instameet

Bruny Island is an island off an island…..off an island. Actually it has the potential to be an island off an island off an island off an island at times and…..I digress. We’ve lived in Tassie for the best part of ten months now and until last week, I’d never had the chance to visit … More Pennicott Bruny Island Cruise

We had the pleasure of staying in Melbourne for Christmas last year (still not quite used to saying that this early in 2016) and part of our trip involved a trip to Werribee Open Range Zoo, located 35km outside the city centre. It’s quite similar in a way to a zoo we visited in the … More Werribee Open Range Zoo: An African Adventure
I was really excited to get to Sydney a couple of weeks ago for two reasons. One….it’s Sydney! Two….Street Photography! Hobart is a lovely little city but I was hoping for something bigger, a place you could get truly lost in and be presented with a myriad of street photography opportunities and a city as … More Sydney Street Photography
We had our first opportunity to explore mainland Australia two weeks ago when we took a quick trip to Sydney to spend the weekend with friends.

These Instameets keep getting better and better! For our latest adventure we headed to the south of Tasmania. Our first port of call was the exceedingly delightful Chapel Lane Hall, a former church with over 100 years of history under its roof.
