Okay, so I'm here in Hobart.
Have been here for a couple days. Spent 2 days in the forest, in the Florentine, near the World Heritage Area in the West of Tasmania. A group of brave individuals have set up "camp" in the middle of a road, which they want to build to be able to log the Upper Florentine area. They have several tree sits and the whole thing is quite elaborate and amazing.
Sleeping in the forest was absolutely inspiring, if not absolutely freezing!! Oh my god!
The weekend was spent at the Weld Convergence, a festival with many environmental talks and discussions. Met some great people both at the Convergence and in the forest of Florentine.
Anyway, am now in Hobart and deciding... do I stay a few weeks in Tas? Or a few months? I'm leaning more towards coming home.. I think it's time, though there is still a strong pull for me to stay in Tasmania. And there are so many places I still haven't seen here! I could almost stay forever! (If money wasn't running low and I wasn't missing family and friends).
That's it. It's Australia Day and I must go to bed early. Am helping my dad with his market stall tomorrow! Early start!

Oops! I realise now that when you mentioned "a festival", you were talking about the Weld Convergence; I thought you were talking about the Weld Valley Pirate Festival, a music festival held last weekend! Sorry! :D
