ExperienceFirst

🌍 Celebrating Our Teams in Madrid & Paris! Last week, some of our team members had an inspiring trip to Madrid, diving into three incredible tours and sharing a great dinner with our fantastic guides—even braving a bit of rain! 🌧️ We’re proud of everything we’ve achieved together this year and were reminded of that powerful motto at the Bernabeu: "No player alone is better than the whole team." In Paris, we wrapped up the season with an event to recognize our team’s hard work. Special congratulations to Ana B, Mohsina K, Natalie M, and Fortune S for embodying ExperienceFirst's values, and a big thank you to our trainers, Melanie D and Paula F, for your dedication. Together, we keep creating unforgettable experiences for our guests. Here’s to more moments of teamwork and success! 🎉#TeamSpotlight Andrew Luan Cristina Carrisi Eoghan Ó Rónáin Russell McDonald II
