Kat Chat Without a doubt one of the best aspects of my job is the opportunity to hit the road travelling to regional areas to meet with retailers whose stories grace the pages of our magazine. There is no substitute for personally meeting these business owners and chatting with them about their businesses, their customers and their dreams. A common thread that appears to be shared by all that I speak with is why they chose to become involved in the health and wellness industry, and that thread is Passion. I travelled 365km north from Brisbane along the Bruce Highway to Bundaberg where I was welcomed by the retailers who appear in this edition. Bundaberg, affectionately known as ‘Bundy’ is not just the gateway to the wonders held within the Great Southern Barrier Reef, it is a region that provides the perfect blend of country and coastline. Established in 1870 Bundaberg has a population of around 48,000 and is essentially known as a sugar cane town, although it is now considered large enough to be a major service centre and is characterised by its wide streets and tropical parks and gardens. Somewhat of a Mecca for the Grey Nomads in winter, Bundy is close to balmy perfection, whilst in summer it quietly swelters under the hot, subtropical sun. It is of course the perfect climate for sugar cane farming and it is here that the city’s best export Bundaberg Rum is made at the Bundaberg distillery. I resisted the urge to sample the locally made brew opting instead to explore the region in my limited free time. I didn’t need to travel far to find some postcard worthy locations. Baldwin Swamp is 4km from the Bundaberg Post Office and is known as Bundaberg’s own “Kakadu, it is home to magnificent walking trails through the wetlands, and inhabited by thousands of waterbirds. A short drive past the fields of sugar cane saw me arrive at Bargara Beach known for its black basalt beaches and the loggerhead turtles who come to lay their eggs at Mon Repos. Perhaps one of Bundy’s best kept secrets is the Basin Rock pool which is situated at Kelly’s Beach in Bargara. This man made rock pool is perfect for snorkelling and discovering marine life in a semi protected ocean filled swimming pool. Whilst my time in Bundy was all too brief I did leave there with a new appreciation for the region. Bundaberg is not a town that you just pass through on your way to somewhere better, Bundy is its own destination.
