I was thinking of moving to Tassie within the next 10 years or so.
How about looking at Cairns - I believe Ravenshoe is perfect on the Atherton Tablelands. Someone who is a well known traveller who had a series running for a few years and covered thousands upon thousands of miles over Australia decided that Ravenshoe was an ideal place to hang up his boots.
I like Tweety Pie's idea of Mount Tambourine too. That is beautiful.
Cheers, Tangrams
PS: Stop promoting Tassie or I'll have to pay too much when I get there.
