I speak with Carmela Contarino, a 30 something year old Aussie, currently living the London life! Carmela has lived the high life in Sydney, having previously worked as a National Breakfast Radio Presenter which she achieved at the tender age of just 24!

She now works as the Talent and Entertainment Content Producer for the Entertainment Hub at Bauer Media. It hasn't always been the smoothest road for Carmela, this was her second crack at achieving her dream of working within Media in London, having had a turbulent time at her previous attempt; often working minimum wage jobs in the UK's capital, struggling to make ends meet.

Carmela shares her valuable experience and knowledge of working within the Media industry (across various roles) and the realistic expectations of what it's like as an expat working in London. She proves to be inspirational in her not giving up, positive attitude.

We also speak about the perks of our jobs, single life, and why Carmela hated me when I asked her for a favour during a Take That interview...
