“I thought the Indian market was one of the hardest for me”

My perception has completely changed since I arrived in India; I thought the Indian market was one of the hardest for me; I met so many nice agents, and Luxury Tribe India (Spring/Summer 2023) Show was very well organised. I am very thankful to all those involved and look forward to participating next year as well.
