Worst habit? Toni: Worrying – and then worrying about worrying. Ryan: Eating bread and milk when I’m not supposed to have gluten or dairy.
Greatest fear? Toni: I have such a great life, so the thought of not having that is awful. Ryan: Snakes.
The line that stayed with you? Toni: “It’s not that deep”, in the sense that nothing really matters. Ryan: “Actions speak louder than words.”
Biggest regret? Toni: Wasting time on what other people think. Ryan: Paying off the HECS debt for my accounting degree.
Favourite book? Toni: Any fiction by Sally Hepworth, and I love cookbooks, especially those by Alison Roman and Matty Matheson. Ryan: Creativity, Inc. by Ed Catmull – he co-founded Pixar.
The artwork/song you wish was yours? Toni: The song Intro by The XX; there are tears every time I listen to it. Ryan: That ‘Pam the Bird’ graffiti that’s popping up everywhere in Melbourne.
If you could time travel, where would you go? Toni: Back in time to spend one more day with my mum, just hanging out at the beach. Ryan: To re-live that first hour with my daughter, Mabel, after she was born. I was adopted, so I never knew what it was like to live in a house with someone who shares the same blood as me.
