About me! Hello, I'm Millie, and I've been calling Tasmania home for the past three wonderful years. I'm a nature enthusiast at heart, always up for new adventures and exploring the hidden gems of this beautiful island. Meeting new people is a joy for me, and I believe in creating a respectful and inclusive atmosphere during our journeys where everyone's expectations are valued. Plus, I have a passion for photography, so expect lots of memorable snapshots to capture our shared moments along the way. I'm fluent in both English and Mandarin, and I'm currently learning Spanish, so I'd be especially delighted to meet people who speak Spanish too. To ensure everyone's comfort, we'll be booking Airbnb or hotel accommodations for our trip, and rest assured, everyone will have their own private room for a peaceful night's rest. Let's embark on incredible adventures together and make lasting memories!

Details about the accommodation: Throughout our memorable journey, we'll ensure your comfort and relaxation in carefully chosen accommodations. For the first night in Launceston, we'll likely book a comfortable hotel or Airbnb, granting everyone a private room for a peaceful night's rest. As we venture further, our two nights in Devonport will offer the same comfort and privacy, allowing you to unwind and recharge after each day of exploration. Whether it's the convenience of a hotel or the homely warmth of an Airbnb, rest assured, you'll have your own private space to make your stay truly comfortable.
