A. (Janne) Kookaburras & Wine… traveling, music, great fashion & good times with my talented peeps who are all amazing at their respective crafts from building, writing songs, creating festivals, designing fashion to something as simple as making a kick arse sandwich – there can be craftsmanship in almost anything.
Q. Which talent would you most like to have?
A. (Janne) Invisibility… I guess that’s more of a magic power….
