Florbela Baltazar of the Portugese Tourist Office (host country of the Europa Vakantiebeurs 2010)

‘For me, my country being selected as host country this year, is the icing on the publicity cake which we have been baking the last couple of years. You can see our logo everywhere: On the tickets, the badges, and even outside. At the stand, I notice that people are not just stuffing flyers in their bags, but that they are looking for specific information and ask serious questions.’
