what's up! my name's frank (sounds like dunk) menken, and I'm a documentary filmmaker and content creator based in Brisbane, Australia!
heavily inspired by artists like Chris Do, Cody Wanner, Gary V, Casey Neistat, Van Neistat, Stanley Kubrick and Wes Anderson, i'm on a journey to improve my filmmaking skills 10x over the course of 365 days.
daily vlogs covering my life as a filmmaker, creative and person, all through the eyes of you, the viewer! by committing to creating every day, i'm both going to have a daily diary of 2022, while also having the opportunity each day to be a better filmmaker.
join me on my journey! whether you're a filmmaker, creative or just tagging along for the ride, i'm so happy your here.
new videos every day at 6am.
There are numerous metro buses going past MONA, you can get there for less than a fiver. Some public transport routes are better than others, but there are public buses nearly everywhere within the greater Hobart area.
Mate. You don't have to take the ferry. There are buses. That's way too costly for it to be the only public transport available to tourists. We all bus with metro from eighter Hobart or Glenorchy
Hey Frank. Good job. Appreciate the work you put into this
I love that you thought MONA was like a Bond Villians lair, it's exactly what I thought too. We are heading back to Tassie in a copule of weeks and this is on the agenda to visit again. Absolutely loved it!
"What the weather is usually like in Tasmania". Actually that is nonsense. Far more days than not, there is blue sky and sunshine - albeit with some cloud in the sky. Hobart has the second lowest amount of rainfall of any capital city in Australia: only slightly more than Adelaide. Also, it is easy to get quite close to MONA by bus. All you have to do is take a bus out into the northern suburbs and then walk about ten minutes across to the museum.
but dem winds
@@chadvaurela4806 That is very true. Not such a problem most of the time though when you're walking around rather than riding a bike. Admittedly, there are rare occasions when the wind is gale force - at which time it's probably more enjoyable to be in a pub imbibing a pint of some great local brew. 😉
@@DougBruce unless you're singlet shorts thongs onlygg
Per buses to MONA... There's some that drop you about 10min walk away. That's literally five seconds on Google Maps.
Public transport outside the cities, yeah, kinda crappy.
Loved this
As a tassie can you visit Burnie Please also you should go on a Strahan boat it’s super cool and everyone there’s really nice and sarah island is amazing
Why was that Ozy flag upside down on the ferry mate?.. Great video !...👍🇬🇧🇦🇺 shout out to the campaign to end native logging!..
As I am from Tassie Hobart area I do agree that tourist attraction are pretty far away but Moana is not that far you can take a bus from Hobart that goes past Moana. But for other places like hiking places for tourist and stuff that is pretty far and would require a car due to no bus services but other than that everything in Hobart area is busable
Thanks for the info
You could find a taxi, wow. There aren't many there. And it costs heaps to go anywhere too far. Tasmanian is beautiful. Just difficult to get around long distances. A friend moved there and loves the weather.
Amazing
Did you get motion sick on the boat tour we took in rotterdam also?
I took motion sickness pills before that one!
Thank you
There is a Mona Bus BTW
"buttery 120" was excellent
Cheers Ruby!!!
I’m moving to Tassie at the end of 2022!
Where are you moving from?
we are glad to have you
Im moving this year!
How’s been your stay so far..?
Thinking of coming this year
@@bethelebony9388 It’s been the best time of my life! No days of the week, no annoying neighbours, no calendar or time. I’m currently in Parkham finishing off my house, all off grid!
Me and the dogs are off again soon to the Deep South of Tassie. It’ll be cold but that’s how I like it!
Came here by chance in 1973 for a week but never left..
That was not a chance😂 probably jailed and thrown away from Kingdom
@@coolvaibhavrana How did you suss that? .. l've tried to keep it hush all these years and now you've made it public.
Damn 😎
I’m a tattoo artist planning to move to Tasmania with my wife and kids. Any advice for a guy in a situation like me?
@@gagetaylor7013 Yo I am planning on moving my dad and myself to Tasmania, have you learned anything in the last 2 months?
@@gagetaylor7013 Yeah, my advice is to go to Melbourne instead. Unless you're willing to work a trade, you're not going to do very well here. How high of a demand do you think tattoo artists are down here? Also, I hope you're a millionaire, because the average 2 bedroom house anywhere close to the city costs around $800,000
Hi nice people, I am moving soon in Tasmania this 2023. It will help if you guys can recommend me some vlogs about life in Tasmania 😊
Why are you moving to Tasmania? And where from?
Angus thornett on TH-cam
I'm surprised that you think there's a lot of natural bush , thank goodness you didn't mention the water supply too.
There is.
really no good buses where I leave in FL. If you dont have a car you in trouble.
Tassie is small enough to cycle all over it. I did.
Metro bus goes very close
Bro the whole peninsula that mona is on is owned by David Walsh who is the man that owns and started mona. honestly walshy wouldn't of care at all about the drone.
4:31 song name?
Not sure off the top of my head, but all the artists are listed at the end of the vlog 😄
All my music is from epidemic sound so that should narrow your search.
Hi….just discovered your channel….really great….super tips as well….I am heading down down under end of the year with my wife….second time in Tassie….I live the other side of the planet on the island of Jersey…..we have decided as we have a short trip, to visit Tassie a few more times over the coming years to split the island up …we will hire a car next time, this time I have four trips all booked up….let others do the driving….ok not cheap, but bah….wife’s special birthday, so why not….looking forward to coming back to Tassie…..after a short visit back to our favourite city of Melbourne prior…..thanks for sharing video….cheers and good health to you.
4:33 what’s that place is it the sink works?
Zinc - not sink. They do not make kitchen sinks there.
@@SanctusPaulus1962 sorry i didnt mean to do that its just bc my boyfriend worked there 😂
@@grapejuice2777 Is he Tasmanian? Or did he move to Tasmania for work?
@@SanctusPaulus1962 yeah hes Tasmanian
@@grapejuice2777 So where are you from?
60 dollars for the Mona ferry so expensive
Wonderful video. Yeah.... it's public transport is very poor. Everyone is used to cars... 🙂🙂.
Fr
Do some research before making claims. What city has public transport into the wilderness?
theres public transport the buses will take you most places and there are regional bus services also. The thing is Hobart is not Melbourne or Sydney so no point coming here from Melbourne or Sydney and expecting it to be like home whats the point of a holiday you might as well save yourself the plane trips. 😏
oh forgot to add you were basically 15 min walk away from the rivulet that has stunning parkland on eitherside and is beautiful to walk along like youre in the countryside you can see platypus as well if you get lucky.
The State you're looking for is called "France".
Claremont/Austins Ferry bus
If theres a Heli Pad No if not your all good
do say do say 🤔?
its not the mona its just mona
ok diagnosis... go back to the big island then!!
i can tell this guy does like no planning before coming to a place
You would be absolutely correct 😎
@@FrankMenken it was an easy potshot when i saw the title - luving the videos - i know you do the amount of planning you want to do which is the perfect amount
@@helloitsme98 100% - I went to Tassy to visit friends and the sightseeing was just a happy coincidence (hence the lack of planning on that front). If you wanna see a well planned Tassy trip definitely check out my trek documentary I did - it’s in a playlist titled “documentaries” on my channel page!
The island is actually called called Lutruwita has been for like thousands of years, with all love from Lutruwita.
Actually, no one knows what it was called for "thousands of years". What we know is that someone wrote down the word in the 19th Century.
It's called Tasmania.
@@albertoftasmania Dude and the reason its called Tas - Mania is because after a near genocide and a few other things about 20 years after the near genocide it required a police force for example for the first time in this islands and its occupants history on earth thus for for actual fact it became the mockery of civilization of the admiralty of the oceans in the form of Tasmania for its manic un civilized behavior as a civilization and one of the regions discovers on the behalf of the northern hemisphere Abel Tasman a sea commander of the British admiralty.
@@Tinksminx_ 1. It was a complete genocide, there are no full-blooded Tasmanian Aboriginals left.
2. Abel Tasman was not of the British admiralty, he was of the VOC (Dutch East India Company)
3. It's Tasman-ia, the 'ia' suffix meaning "land of" as in "Britannia" (of the Britons), "Alexandria" (city of Alexander), etc.
4. Yes, Tasmania has been mocked and looked down upon by many, that doesn't mean that we have an entirely uniquely brutal history. Every country has it's controversial past, Tasmania is no exception.
@@albertoftasmania It is the Palawa Deity Dolly Dal that saved Robinson a colonist from drowning because for some reason through global regimes spanning thousands of years this man could not swim yet a Palawa of Lutruwita could swim and saved him through occupancy of this hemisphere of the globe and understanding the planet and operation without the hindered peoples of slave labor derived manipulation of humanity and civilization en mass through belief governance and other you have wandered this island of Lutruwita and seen the majesty of the true beauty of the planet unhindered by mans hand in such fell ways but also the destruction agriculture and other have reaped on the land here I being a Jedi and Elf as recognized by the Australian federal government of Australia under the Commonwealth also among other things affiliate with the Dream as a belief and in occupancy of this region of earth being as i have also Palawa DNA and a family tree dating back to the original inhabitants of this island I feel that people here need to live and experience the dream this place on earth is. Yah Palawa, Milaythinanika Lutruwita!!! Yah Djimba Wandjina, Nayri!
This is what our tax dollars provide in 2023
🤦
The Museum is privately owned.
