Member: Susanne Siciliano (Zana)
Your position
in the salon: Stylist
What would your
ideal holiday destination be?
Some where I
can lay on the beach and relax, have a few drinks and eat
great food, but mainly relax!
What is your
perfect Saturday night?
A bottle of nice
wine, a group of friends, my boy of course and laughs all
round.
What is your
favourite music to listen to?
A bit of anything
really! Just depends on what mood I'm in but I like to go
out and boogie to dance and house music.
If you could
choose 2 people to sit around a dinner table with who would
it be?
I think someone who will make me laugh is Seth Rogan, he'd
be interesting and knows how to joke around. And how could
I miss out on a dinner with Jamie. Between him and Seth I
would be in stitches all night.

Susan Lewis
Your position
in the salon: Style Director
What would your ideal holiday destination be?
At present, it
would have to be somewhere I could relax, soak up the atmosphere
and did I mention relax? In 2010, a holiday in Spain with
my husband. Hiring a car, we will make our way through places
like Madrid, Seville, Granada and then ending up in Barcelona.
Cant wait to experience the nightlife, tapas, shopping and
especially the top site would be the work of Antoni Gaudi.
What is your
perfect Saturday night?
Perfect Saturday
night would be dinner with a close bunch of friends. Now-a-days
we spend less time out and more time at friend's houses. But
to tell you a secret my most treasured Saturday nights are
hanging out in my PJ's, cooking up a storm in the kitchen,
followed by a night on the couch watching some classic movies.
What is your
favourite music to listen to?
Lets just name
a few: The Smiths, James, Cut Copy, Kosheen, Mystery Jets,
Youth Group, Jenny Lewis and the Watson Twins, Interpol, Feist,
Placebo, Bell and Sebastian, The Good, The Bad & The Queen,
The Stone Roses, New Buffalo, Peter Bjorn & John and of
course the beautiful Sarah Blasko.
If you could
choose 2 people to sit around a dinner table with who would
it be?
Well, my dinner table is the centre for many laughs, so Jimmy
Carr, who is my favourite comedian, would be a person I would
love to have a giggle with. And of course my husband's mum,
Valerie, who passed away nine years ago. Val was this great
lady who lived for life. Ohh yes I'd make her cook the dinner
(as Val was this amazing mum that was always cooking and baking
for her kids) So, it would be a huge feast that would last
for days. Yum!

Cook up a nice
dinner, some great wine and share it with good friends. We

singing away to the odd 80's hit - don't tell anyone!
If you could
choose 2 people to sit around a dinner table with who would
it be?
Only 2, that's tricky! Maybe Billy Connolly, as he is funny
and well travelled. And President Obama, I think he would
be amazing

What would your ideal holiday destination be?
I have been very
fortunate to have travelled a lot of the world with my sport
and have seen some amazing sights. I have two favourite places
and it really would be a tough decision to pick one over the
other… I love Paris! I love nothing more than lying on
the lawns below the Eiffel Tower, pondering along the Champs
Elysees & enjoying French champagne. My favourite 'Australian'
destination is Port Douglas, Nth Queensland. For it's beautiful
diversity, amazing resorts and restaurants. It's the perfect
place to relax.

girl so spending a night with my husband, family and friends

current top 40. I love Coldplay, what a genius Chris Martin
is!

with who would it be?
Lance Armstrong, I love his attitude to life and his sheer
determination. Such an amazing inspiration to me, both in
sport and life. Roger Federer, again another amazing athlete
who beliefs and integrity, as well as ability, demonstrates
why he is the greatest tennis player of all time.
