Changes

'''Hobart''' is the capital of the [[Australia]]n island [[Tasmania]]. Tasmanians are lovely people , with a strong island community feeling, welcoming foreigners - hitching is possible even on small roads. <!-- I who? :) --> Someone hitched to a town of a 100 people.As there are only 500 000 inhabitants on the whole island, don't be surprised to meet some people twice !Until recently, tourism was not really developped in Tasmania, so you will meet less tourists, and everything would be more relaxed than on the mainland. ==What to do in town==Hobart is an Australian state capital, but with only 200 000 inhabitants, and you can still feel int the countryside. Everything is also less expensive than in other Australian cities, even with importation costs.Weekly events :*Salamanca Market each Saturday on Salamanca place, very nice to hang around and buy some clothes, but lots of tourist, by Tasmanian standards.*Farmer's Market each Sunday on Bathurst Street, nice to buy organic food and eat lots of things. Other interesting events :*Dark Mofo festival on the two weeks before the winter solstice.
