#67 - Julia de Carlo

This week on the show, we sat down with Julia de Carlo. She's a teacher, born and raised in Ottawa, who loves beaches and made full use of this summer to get married and to go on her honeymoon with our very own Rob Attrell!

Julia also gives us the lowdown on exactly what its like to be married to Rob (complete with the second half of their newlyweds trivia; listen to Rob's answers from just before the wedding here), and tells us how it feels to be stuck on an island with Rob for 2 weeks.
