Sam originally hails from the coastal town of Sliema in Malta, and is Radio One Mallorca's daytime news reader. Sam came to radio news only last year, from a career as an industrial geologist, where he worked for mining companies around the world. Having spent the last 3 years in Malaysia working for a major multinational, Sam yearned to do something different and couldn't resist the call of radio. Sam lives in Palma with his partner Jay, and is a keen swimmer and kite-surfer.
