2. Welcoming Challenges with Open Arms
   Tourism is anything but stagnant; it’s a realm of constant change and fresh challenges. Lorenzo encourages you to view  challenges as opportunities for growth. Take Lorenzo’s response to the Covid-19 pandemic – he ventured into unexpected territories, like traditional bareboat charters, to keep his business thriving during the uncertain times, before returning to his cabin charter business model.
3. Teamwork Makes the Dream Work
   For Lorenzo, teamwork is essential to success in tourism. It’s a collective effort, everyone plays a vital role. Surround yourself with talented, passionate individuals who share your vision to craft unforgettable experiences. Invest in your team’s training to ensure top-notch service.
4. Giving Back to Your Community
   Tourism can benefit your community. Lorenzo’s business model combines sustainability and luxury, using solar power, recycling water, and employing local staff to prioritize community value and quality. Ensure your practices are sustainable and respectful of the environment and local culture.
5. The Role of Innovation
