TOURISM MEANS

What I love about traveling is not the destination itself, but the feeling during the trip as well as the people you travel with. Although I visited some destinations several times, each time it was different. Friends, the time spent with them and the anecdotes that remain are what I love the most about every trip. (May, 2020)

CHALLENGES

Curenlty there are a lot of unknowns what will hapen to our industry so the biggest challenges are still ahead and the problem is that we do not exactly know what are this challenges. We can try to do some forecasts but it is not possible to know what/when will be allowed and how will countries respond - restrictions other limitations... (April, 2020)

CONCERNS

I am concerned that people will travel less or with fear of any kind of infection. As a consequence, there will be less students jobs, which means less money. (March, 2020)

Family businesses can bring more of their personality and family stories into their communication. Time to hop on all social media platforms and make content. Content with stories and emotion. (April, 2020)

I NEED

Another problem I see in this time is, that students are overwhelmed with work from home, which mainly consists of googling topics on the internet and describe them as i think does not fully take advantage of knowledge and ideas of students at all. (April, 2020)

EXPLOITATION

Lots of people lose their jobs do to this crisis. Employees have to get rid of a lot of job places because they need to safe money and the people who are still working for this company get less paid than before. Lots of employees in Austria exploited the "Kurzarbeit" because they got money from the government but the workers in this company still worked the same amount of hours than before, but they got less income.
