HERE'S to Brisbane gal, international blogger of food and travel, Kerry Heaney.

Kerry personifies the best of Brisbane, a vivacious personality-plus, who has transcended the earthly realms of print into the electrifying ether of cyberspace blogging. At the same time she keeps her feet firmly on the ground, floors of planes or deck of ships and keeping us in the loop.

Educated in Brisbane well before Obama called her home Brisvegas, she's one of the people who celebrated Brisbane's hosting of the 1988 World Expo, the Commonwealth games and its renaissance as a place of food and culture.

Kerry's threes decades of writing on both subjects and embrace of online communication has given her a unique foundation to build her contemporary, and now global food and travel stories. Last year she was recognised one of Australia's top food bloggers.

In this publication, we are proud to introduce Kerry's local and global food and travel reports.
