Ideas:

• Tasmanians enjoy a wonderful and relaxed lifestyle • We’re looking for a quiet and peaceful place and we found it here in

Tassie • Bought a bicycle for all of us for the first time and kids really love it

doing biking during weekends and school holidays • Basketball hoop in our backyard • Nearby beaches, and we do camping • We do more fishing now, things that my son asked for a long time

when we we’re in Sydney • Tassie’ is one of the most affordable places to live in Australia. • Achieve a high quality of life and to raise my children in a safe

environment. • Buying our first home is more possible now here in Tassie

“ We live a life in Tassie where all of us really enjoying specially our children” - Please do more research to Tasmania as well. Thank you
