Hobart, Tasmania

It’s many months since I posted here but as today is the 7th anniversary of starting this blog, it seems a good time to reconnect, review and post anew.

It is also 7 years since I took redundancy from my old London city banking job. My husband and I sold our home, packed up our UK life and travelled to Tasmania for an “adult gap year”. We fell in love with this beautiful island at the bottom of Australia and made friends here. After the extended gap year, we found jobs here, bought a house and we continue to call Hobart home. 

So, to begin a “Month of Gratitude” here is a photo of snow on kunanyi/Mount Wellington taken from Bellerive Beach. I am grateful that I can walk on a beach on my way to work.
