UNWTO Tourism Stories Pacific - Palau, Edelene Albert

Edelene Albert is the owner of the Yogi Dives B&B (Koror).

Before COVID-19, she prepared her mother’s house to become a Bed and Breakfast.

After COVID-19 hit, her business could not operate anymore due to the closure of borders.

Edelene applied for relief funds, shifted her business model to accommodate budget travellers in the future, continued with expanding the number of rooms of the B&B and planted fruit trees to provide fresh products for her clientele and provided yoga classes to locals to sustain herself until international tourists come back.
