Asher Keddie at Qualia, Hamilton Island

You’ve Been To Audi Hamilton Island Race Week A Fair Few Times, So What Do You Love About It?

Best Or Worst Ocean Moment?

Asher Keddie: My Best Ocean Moment Was Definitely Sailing Out To Whitehaven Beach From Hamilton Island About Two Decades Ago… I’ve Been Visiting The Island For So Long Now, And On That Occasion I Had My First Glimpse Of The Beautiful Whales Frolicking Around The Boat… I’ll Never Forget How Special That Moment Was.

Book Or Ipad?

Music Does It For Us, What Are The Top Holiday Tracks On Your Ipod?

Asher Keddie: A Selection… Travel Incites So Many Emotions For Me, And I Love Listening To Music While I’m Away… Wistful, Adventurous Or Upbeat If I’m Feeling Inspired And Excited. Matt Corby Gets A Lot Of Playtime.

Favourite Holiday Activity (Other Than Sleeping)? You Can Share…

Asher Keddie: I Seem To Do A Lot Of Wandering Around Wherever I Am, Soaking Up The Sites Is Inspiring… And I’m Forever Trying To Seek Out The Best Places To Eat.
