For anyone wishing to vicariously visit Tasmania, follow Louisa as she ventures around the state. Join us on Instagram here: instagram.com/tasmanian_wanderlust/
Remember visiting is much different from living in a place. Also remember when travelling overseas there is always the extra flight to the mainland. As an elderly person I find Tassie is great for younger crowd people who like outdoor pursuits but the elderly not a lot happening.

It's worse than mainlanders coming to Tassie and thinking they can drive around the state and see everything in a couple days. That can be excused because they don't live in Tas. People thinking Burnie to Hobart are the furthest diagonal points probably don't leave their house and don't understand how to read a map. A process which has been simplified over the years because they predominately digital. I think this might be eye opening those people. Kind of like Americans realising there are countries outside the US, or flat earthers realising the earth is indeed, round.

If you are educated, professional qualified your life can be great with ease to fly out for medical reasons. Jobs and careers. If you are retired and well stocked up superannuated ok. To achieve innovation, thinking outside the box they are conservative. Serious medical problems and care then off to the mainland. Choice of tertiary education limited and extremely difficult for students to get casual jobs. The public bus service is okay for the population. The local media always like to stir the pot, it gets advertising time, dividing the locals into for and against. They need external points of view for overseas and interstate. The State and local Government keep writing strategic economic development plans but they are repetitive also looking for the Federal Government 'golden goose' funding. The State Governent tourism , regional tourism promotional organization love doing absolute minimum so ling as they get paid and keep their jobs. They flog the ol' horse, stale, stodgy obsolete marketing and attractions. They keep tourism, visitor attraction separate from local community and social activities. They after their money.

It depends what you are looking fore I know my way around lived and worked in most. Firstly the heat pump will not keep you warm, must have a wood fire. Deloraine is nice cold mountain views close to Launceston airport , center of the state. Many country areas back roads around. Oaklands Campbel Town area history old buildings. East coast many nice places, West coast mining towns . Boat Harbour Stanley keep driving take your pick. If you have a lot of money and want to stay put have good health, doctors are hard to get appointment same with dentist. All dressed up no place to go, Casino's very little night life, want a job not much hope. I got the hell out of there had young family everyone is happy ,over 20 years ago. Went back visiting had a great time , roads are a dangerous disgrace very busy, but no traffic . Expensive, ferry a ice box trip awful, small airports are expensive to fly out of or in. Take your pick, there is crime not enough supermarkets. Lock up camps for international workers bus takes them to work on farms, the farms no one can get a job there like old days. No one talks about it , Telstra main internet, not cheap. Homelessness is cruel in the cold , nothing cheap, I think they compare with Melbourne Sydney Brisbane house prices and rent, Hobart overcrowded . Parking need other towns I spoke about. Best of luck God bless you on your move.

It’s a small community town, people are welcoming, we have 2 IGA supermarkets, doctors, chemist, school, garage, petrol station, the list goes on. We are about 11mins from Burnie, approximately 7 mins to Ulverstone and 20 mins to Devonport. Launie is 1 1/2 hrs from Penguin. There is so much you can do here, it’s well worth the visit or even move here permanently.

Boy this is off putting. Planning on moving down from QLD in a few months. I found Hobart really arty and cool on a visit and it seems still affordable...
Beaches are not as nice at the top. More tidal too
Thankyou we did a big round trip and we are thinking of saint helens as I love to mountainbike and the beaches and fishing. Any more on the v ibes. We also think Huonville but thats much colder and maybe not many beaches.
No beaches near Huonville. It's a river town. St Helens much more beach and bikes but huge tourism influx in summer. Huonville inland and frosty. St Helens coastal so not frosty.
Get someone to give you a lift with bikes to top of Tullendeena Hill East of Scottsdale in the morning and ride the rail trail down hill to Tonganah and then back into Scottsdale.
Nice video... 🤝♥️from India🇮🇳
