To be Tasmanian is to value quality over quantity. We create, preserve and protect the unusual. With quiet confidence, with passion and perseverance, we pursue the extraordinary.  Could you be Tasmanian?

 What’s different about Tasmania is our culture and lifestyle. Here, you will be encouraged to be your authentic self, to share your experiences with our emerging generation of registered and enrolled nurses. 

Here in Tasmania, you’ll be spoilt for choice when it comes to breath-taking coastlines, National Parks or award-winning restaurants or bars. 

Some people surf in the early mornings and go sailing on weekends or take photography classes, write novels, or learn to mountain bike. They take part in the community, volunteering and serving on boards. And their spouses and children have similar opportunities to thrive in a quieter, safer, more adventurous place. 

After a hard day at work, you can get on your bike or put on your boots and “tell it to the mountain” in minutes, not hours. 

Something is happening here, and you’re invited to be part of it.

It’s not where you were born. It’s who you are, and who you want to be. Be Tasmanian.

Tasmanian | The quiet pursuit of the extraordinary

Make It Tasmania | Move for a great lifestyle
