  • 3. To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
  • I enjoyed my program very much but with the covid pandemic most meetings, training days etc moved online. And it was hard to be motivate interacting through a screen. Plus hospitality is all about the people, so I wasn’t able to make connections and meet new people.
