Freeloading

G'day! Now I'm in Tasmania. I'm renting a car on Sunday to travel round the state, but in the meantime I'm staying with Helen, my new friend. There's a site on the interweb called Global Freeloaders, and basically you email people where you want to go, and they put you up, for free. Dead neat eh? I've hosted a couple of times before, but never been a guest.

Managed to pretty much do Hobart over the last few days: I've been round the streets; I've been up Mt. Wellington (easy - only 850m accent - getting used to this now); I've been on the Lady Nelson, a replica of a small exploration square rigger, on a cruise round the harbour; I've been to Salamanca Market and I've had a fair few flat whites - great to know they are as good in Oz as they are in NZ.

So, loads of camping over the next week or so. Looking forward to seeing the scenery.
