It’s no secret I love hiking/ bushwalking, so when I was looking for walks to do in and around the Brisbane area, I came across this Mount Glorious walk that has a bit of history and adventure. The Piper Comanche Wreck trail contains remnants of an old plane that crashed in the rainforest below Mt…| Brissie Life
One of the things I love about living in Brisbane is the sheer amount of weekend getaway options near the city. Thankfully, my recent trip to the Scenic Rim reminded me just how great they are and inspired me to get away more often. For this trip, I rented a five-acre property on Airbnb in…| Brissie Life
Of all the walks in the city, this Brisbane River walk is one of the best. At either end are two of my favourite places in Brisbane – New Farm Park and Howard Smith Wharves – and the walk is a comfortable length with sites to see along the way. Better still, you can ride…| Brissie Life

Additionally, the markets are dog-friendly and there are all kinds of…| Brissie Life
I love Vietnamese food, as it’s light and the subtle flavours and textures typically leave me feeling I’ve had a healthy food adventure. So when we heard rumours of authentic Vietnamese in Paddington, we were in. Additionally, Pho Hung Vuong is a short distance from our home, and it’s a couple of doors down from…| Brissie Life
Welcome to what’s on in Brisbane in June, 2024! It’s that time already, and to kick off the first month of winter there are loads of activities on offer. For starters, there’s a world food and music festival, a Thai festival, the Brisbane Illustration Fair and Brisbane Record Fair in town. There’s also World Gin…| Brissie Life
Looking for a new walk to experience, I came across the Toohey Forest Walk to Mt Gravatt Outlook, which ticked several boxes for us. Firstly, it’s relatively close to home, dog friendly, a loop trail (always more fun) and a decent length at 9km without being too taxing. Additionally, the path heads through bushland, a…| Brissie Life
