ā–ŗ WHO AM I?

I am a Brazilian-American journalist living in Florida. After traveling the world working with sports, news, and events for over 15 years, I realized that what I really love is the travel part of it all. So I exchanged life in the newsrooms and stadiums for the daily challenge of being an independent content producer. I created this channel to share the beauties of the world... stuff that, for so long, I only kept to myself. Also to help people planning similar trips and to inspire more people to venture out and enjoy life!

P.S.: The funny guy who appears in the vlogs is my husband, Gordon. He is Canadian-American, and he's actually camera-shy. That's why he's behind the camera most of the time šŸ˜‰

  • Australia is one of the 5 Continents, & one of the best countries in the world, well developed country with all facilities. šŸ‘šŸ‘ŒšŸ‘
  • @johndunn4182
    I've been all over Australia.....& Melbourne was my favourite city. It's a cultural capital, vibrant, so many cafes & restaurants, friendly people and a great night life. Can not wait to get back there.
  • Melburnian born and bred here. It's great to see our city through the eyes of a visitor. There's a lot going on here. Hosier lane used to be great with work by Miss Van, Fafi (the Banksy is in Flinders lane), but once it became famous it started to get vandalised by younger artists. It's a shame. I'm looking forward to watching your next video!
  • @kejmat
    Welcome to Australia. I always enjoy your videos so much. What really sets you apart from so many others is your detailed and accurate research.
  • @shannonh6855
    Welcome! I only discovered your channel a week or so ago, I was searching for videos on Mexico for an upcoming trip, and now here you are in my city! You did such a great job too. Sometimes I watch traveler's videos on Melbourne out of curiosity, it's interesting to see my own city through someone elses eyes, and honestly this is the best one I've seen. When you went to AC/DC lane I was thinking, oh they should watch the Long Way to the Top music video, and then what do you show next ... haha! I hope you have a great time here in Australia, you both seem like such genuinely lovely people, thanks for your informative videos!
  • Watching your work on your channel always makes me happy! Thanks so much! šŸ‘šŸ‘šŸ‘
  • @wagtail06
    Fantastic video Renata! And I say that as an Australian who lived in Melbourne for 4 years - you captured the vibrancy and beauty of Melbourne so well. I now live in Sydney, which I have no doubt you will love too. We are lucky to have these two fantastic cities in our country. But everyone knows the best city is actually Brisbane! Can't wait for you to discover all Australia has to offer :)
  • Oh, Renata! Thanks for showing us the sights! On all 4 previous visits I only had eyes for Melbourne's beauties!
