Tasmania by and large sucks ass. Hobart is an absolute shithole and Launceston was exactly the same but smaller. Everything is colonial which is cool but none of it is maintained. All the wood on the houses is rotting and so much of the place is dilapidated. My mates house where we were staying was in a nice area but venture out and it looks nasty.
Also the roads are woefully maintained even in the CBD, and the place is a rabbit warren to navigate.
Amazing natural sight-seeing but that's about it. Most of the genuinely interesting colonial stuff was torn down ages ago because they don't like their convict heritage. Port Arthur and a smattering in Hobart is all that is really left.
Sure as hell won't be visiting again in a hurry. Thank goodness I was there to see my mate as we had a ripping time. If I was there for any other reason I'd be severely depressed.
Lol
Yep not so many mcmansions here and a lot of shitty houses. Haven't seen a road in Tassie as bad as the Horrocks highway to Clare though.
Hobart is great, haven't really found too many great features of Launceston yet.
