Short statement about the participation

I am looking forward to attending the Short Stay Conference in Crete this year, where industry leaders and innovators in the short-term rental space come together.

It's a great opportunity to explore the latest trends, share insights, and connect with professionals who are shaping the future of travel and hospitality on the island and not only.
