Alex & Annie: The Real Women of Vacation Rentals

You Are the Company You Keep Working in a home office as a solopreneur can be lonely at times, and podcasts have become my virtual tribe—my weekly companions that bring inspiration, knowledge, and joy into my workspace. Some ignite my curiosity (Science Vs), others entertain (To Die For), and a few have truly become wise friends I turn to for advice and perspective. The highlight of 2024? Meeting Alex Annie, Meaghan and Amber in real life. It was incredible to connect face-to-face after spending so much time feeling inspired by their voices and insights. How fascinating it is that in this digital age, we can build meaningful relationships and impact lives through such diverse platforms. Thank you, ladies, for being such a powerful source of motivation this year! Here’s to growing, connecting, and inspiring each other—virtually and beyond!

My movie title of 2024 was definitely “Ford v. Ferrari - the great challenge “ Taking over the re-organisation of the company while doing it with the clients ‘ones... well it wasn't easy .... And some things didn't work, some people have disappointed us… we have to be honest but we learn from mistakes.🤷♀️ What has worked the most? Our passion for #STR , an amazing network done by professional companies among them our partners ( Neely Khan QALIA (Responsible Tourism Standard) Cristina Benincasa Sustonica Richard Vaughton ), a team that is able to find #solutions to all problems in no time, the marketing driven by the creative Madman (E.D. Marco CANGEMI)🫶 The #challenge that I embraced with apprehension and that gave me a lot of satisfaction? Definitely the organisation of SCALE Italia! The commitment behind this organisation is hard to explain in a few lines, I just know that at the end I thought: an intense year of work finished in 2 days? Oh yeah... remember this when you come to a #scale conference, nothing is left to chance, the passion we put into it is incredible, and here an enormous thank you to the founders and the other scale organisers who supported us in this creation: Gianpaolo Vairo Damian Sheridan Katie Glover ( saint Katie) Louise Brace Marie Pistinier Gail Boisclair Laura Gence Steve Taggert Oriol Plana Boris Pavlov special thanks for the help to Deborah L. 🙏 A dream come true?
