To Zoé, working in the hotel industry means creating memories and sharing warmth with clients. Growing up abroad, her physical environment consistently changed and she found it difficult to call a place &#39;home&#39;. Her family was the one constant element bringing her warmth, security and love. That feeling she wants to share with customers who travel the world. In the 21st episode of The Life They Live, Zoé explains what hospitality means to her and the importance it has in our lives. She also addresses topics such as transitioning between childhood to adulthood, finding a university program and living alone at a young age. Zoé gives us a glimpse of her childhood as a kid who grew up in several countries. If you want to know more, you can find her book &#39;Memories of Our World&#39; on Amazon.
