Additional Information

Alpitour S.p.A. stands as Italy's largest tour operator, with "S.p.A." denoting its status as a public limited company (PLC) in international terms, equivalent to S.A. in some countries. My employment with the company was facilitated through the third-party agency, Hotspotsa, specializing in recruiting personnel for Italian tour operators.

Utilizing intervals between various job engagements, I maximized my time by indulging in extensive travel, pursuing personal hobbies such as climbing, and engaging in volunteer work. The exception to this pattern was during the transition from the end of 2022 to the beginning of 2023, when I took time off for recovery following a surgical operation.
