Meet Robin, your Layla Travel Advisor

I love finding the moments that turn a trip into a memory.

I'm Robin, a Brazilian Travel Advisor based in Berlin, Germany. I've travelled to over 30 countries and lived in more than 10 during four years as a digital nomad. After more than a decade of planning my own adventures, I now bring that experience to helping travellers plan their trips with Layla. I love discovering the real character of a place through its people, food, traditions and everyday life, and helping you experience more than just the typical tourist attractions.

Travel became a way of life when I spent four years living and working in different countries as a digital nomad. Moving from place to place gave me the chance to experience destinations beyond a typical holiday. I discovered local neighbourhoods, tried regional food, explored traditions and got a feel for everyday life in different cultures.

Some of my favourite travel memories haven't come from famous landmarks. They've come from wandering through local markets, finding a small restaurant full of locals, stumbling upon a neighbourhood festival or discovering something I didn't even know to look for.

That's the kind of travel I love: experiences that help you connect with a place and see it from a different perspective.

I know Brazil, Germany, Portugal, Italy, Mexico and Morocco particularly well, having spent time experiencing their cultures, cities and everyday life.

Whether you'd like to explore Brazil beyond its famous beaches, discover Italy through its food and traditions, wander through Morocco's local markets or experience European cities beyond the main attractions, I'd love to help you find a different side of your destination.

I speak Portuguese natively and English fluently, with intermediate French and Spanish and basic German.

Experiencing destinations like a local. I love helping travellers discover what a place feels like beyond the main attractions. That could mean exploring residential neighbourhoods, visiting markets where locals shop, finding community events or uncovering places loved by the people who live there. It's about experiencing a destination, not just sightseeing.

Food, culture and local traditions. Food is one of my favourite ways to understand a culture. I enjoy discovering traditional dishes, family-run restaurants, local markets and food festivals, as well as the history and celebrations that make each destination unique. I'll help you find experiences that bring the local culture to life.

Discovering places beyond the usual tourist trail. Some of the best travel experiences are the ones you never expected. I enjoy researching lesser-known places, finding thoughtful local recommendations and uncovering experiences that don't always appear in typical travel guides. I'll help you discover options that feel authentic, surprising and memorable, while bringing everything together into a trip that suits your interests.
