TravelTop Spots On The Great Ocean Road, With Jenna Densten

I studied Interior Design and work as a trainer at the Design School I started with my husband Josh. We are both all about good food and coffee, and are always on the hunt to find somewhere new, even if it involves a little roadtrip!

The Great Ocean Road has become one of our favourites, as a little under one year ago we purchased our little shack in Skenes Creek. We visit at least once a month, if not more… taking the scenic route when we can!
