Antoine Bezzina said:

It was a great experience. For me it opened a whole new horizon and I wish that I could go again. I had followed the diplomas in hotel operations and tourism and travel agency management and saw the theory being applied in practice. I thank Future Focus for giving me this golden opportunity to undergo a work placement aboard. I leant about other work practices and cultures and I made a lot of friends. We were a great group and got along very well together. We made new contacts and had great speakers addressing us. I strongly recommend such a work placement to others.
