I'm Emily, a Brazilian dynamo with a passion for languages—fluent in English, Spanish, and Portuguese. Three years ago, I embarked on a new chapter of life in the sprawling metropolis of LA. Initially navigating this vast city solo, I felt the challenge of making connections. However, my love for LA quickly grew, and now, I consider myself well-versed in its intricacies.
Having experienced the joy of introducing friends from around the world to the wonders of Los Angeles, I thrive on the excitement of watching their reactions to the city's myriad offerings. Whether it's basking in the California sun on our stunning beaches, exploring the scenic trails of Malibu followed by refreshing cold beers, or leisurely strolling around Melrose, indulging in ice cream while people-watching, I'm all about making each moment memorable.
Join me in embracing California's beautiful weather and the endless possibilities LA has to offer. Whether you're new to the city or looking for a fresh perspective, I'm here to ensure you have an incredible time discovering the gems of Los Angeles!
My Offer
I'm all about embracing the active California lifestyle, firmly believing that the best experiences are the ones that make you break a sweat! Picture this: scenic hikes against the backdrop of California's cloudless sky—exercise meets Instagram-worthy moments. Whether you're up for a waterfall hike, bringing your four-legged friend along, or opting for a knee-friendly panoramic view, I've got the perfect trail in mind.
Beyond the dusty shoes and tights lifestyle, I love wandering through local farmer's markets and exploring outdoor shopping centers like The Grove and The Americana. Even if you're not in a shopping mood, the vibes are unbeatable.
Now, let's talk beaches! If you come to California and skip the sandy shores, you're missing out. Venice Beach is my go-to recommendation for first-time visitors. It's a people-watching paradise with muscle-bound enthusiasts at Muscle Beach, skaters tearing it up, and the option to cruise over to the Santa Monica Pier on those awesome Birds scooters.
As an elite Yelp reviewer and a self-proclaimed foodie, I've got the inside scoop on all the culinary delights California has to offer. Craving Mexican, Mediterranean, or exploring vegan options? I know just the spots. And let's not forget my weakness for sweets!
While I'm not into the nighttime club scene or celebrity sightings, I'm more than happy to guide you to places where you can have an unforgettable experience. Let the adventure begin!
