Bio
Gabriela Castro
I worked with Paula at SANDEMANs NEW Europe Tours where she was the manager of the team. She is a very well organized person, who knows how to manage big groups of people. She has excellent communication skills (English and Spanish) and keen eye for details. Years later, she started working with us at Booking.com where she proved once again that she has customer service skills.
