Ipswich Blog

Urban buzz, country charm and everything in between.

Patricia has lived in Ipswich all of her life and has watched Ipswich grow into the beautiful city it is today. With three boys of her own and grandchildren to follow, Patricia is in the know of all the family friendly hot spots.

Jennifer Johnston is a Brisbane-based freelance writer and blogger with a passion for travel writing and an eagerness for adventure. Her stories will resonate with those in their 40s, 50s and 60s but this doesn’t mean other demographics won’t find ‘gold’ in her stories.

Creek to Coast is the only outdoor adventure show on Australian broadcast television 52 weeks a year. It specialises in everything from water sports, fishing, boating and surfing to four wheel driving, camping and camp oven cooking. You’ll catch Creek to Coast on Saturday afternoons at 5.30pm on Channel 7 Queensland and again at midnight the following Monday, 7:30 am on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays on 7mate nationally.

I’m fascinated by all things food. When I’m not sniffing out fresh seafood or truffles, the search is on for the story behind the plate.
Food involves passion. It’s the conduit for me to find people who really care about what they do, who bring colour and flavour to others’ lives rather than simply existing in the mundane.
While I have some experience of hospitality teaching, food reviewing and wine appreciation, first and foremost I’m an informed foodie, customer and Gold Coast resident. I’ll tell you about our food adventures, where to find great value and diverse food experiences, and the stories behind the plate.
