Get to know Joan
Joan actively pursues a quiet, peaceful weekend at home listening to vinyl records or playing board games. She loves to head down south to Margaret River region on long weekends in the company of her husband and their two cats for a gastronomic experience. Occasionally, she enjoys going off-the-grid camping – leaving nothing but footprints, taking nothing but pictures.
