Hobart, Tasmania has to be the most hippiest haven in Australia. LOADS of counterculture activity. Organic food markets are everywhere in the weekly Salamanca market. Lots of wild, beautiful, free-loving, organic environmentalists.

Hobart is the home of the world’s first left-leaning Green Party. Lots of old, character homes in Hobart. And, Tassie (as the locals affectionately call it) is such a dreamy place with turquoise waters, and eucalypt forests. It’s a utopia or the closest to one in the world. And, I've travelled to almost every corner of the globe seeking out hippie havens and like-minded eco-subcultural back-to-the-landers. Dudes, bring your berks, dreds, and peaceful thoughts to this totally chilled place downunder.

Comment: YEAH im from Tas (launceston) and it is a kool, enviromentalist, hip place (in parts) with forty percent forests, and fresh clean air. problem is im kinda a new hippie-into the politics, beatles music and philosophy but me and my friends dont even know where to look for Lucy. we''ve become prety much obsessed with microdots-if any1 from Tas can help us out that would be awesome!
peace, JuJU
