Praia Da Luz - Lagos,08

Summary

Motivation abounds ! But this needs some explanation.
After we were offered the opportunity to continue a (family) business in the Algarve in 2000, we took the chance. Mainly because "working with people" has always been our preference.
After we put the Quinta back on the map (organisationally / marketing technically / financially), the owner decided to put it up for sale.
Unfortunately, our finances are not sufficient to buy the property.

I would like to add my work experience in tourism, interacting with guests on holiday and with an eye for detail to your organisation.

Perhaps there is an opportunity to explain things in person.
