    I did a european Magic, contikitour with rhianna in 2023, from Londen to Londen. Her energie and positivety was something I notist inmediatly. We had a big group, she is Verry likekeble for and by everyone and she was in top of her game, I noticed. I was confused she looks to have al lot of experiance, because of professional attitude, a natural way of being with people with respect and making a good group energy. I loved working with her as a person and running The tour. I am So proud How she did it, The european Magic is a Very fast tour, Nine days, So The pace is high… She nailded it! Up and running with a smile and giving love to evereyone. I remember The last day in paris, we had to take another group back to Londen last minute in our coach, no problem quick shifting in gear by Rihanna and she took care of them..that went smooth… That whole tour went smooth happy people, because of a fantastic Tourmanager. One problem, it was to short, with Rihanna I wanted to have worked more! She is professional and a great person with Many colors! Grous who gets her as a tm are lucky! Rihanna you are The best to me!
