I have been fortunate to spend a few days in Tasmania, taking a break and enjoying the sights. The most amazing sight in the south east region is the view on top of Mount Wellington, way above Hobart. Not the view down over Hobart but the view at the back, across territory which could be on another planet. It’s amazing.

Looking at this view I realised that I was focusing too much attention on the foreground and missing the grandeur of the valleys mountains in the background.

I enjoy the perspective travel brings - business travel and personal travel. Every time I’m outside my usual routine and space I find myself thinking about work and all involved there in a different way.

Just at the brisk air on top of Mount Wellington clears your lungs, travel can clear your head and see a new road ahead.
