About me

A little bit about the writer:


Oi! I'm Katherine

I’m [Your Name], the heart behind Layover Journals! I’m a vibrant, extroverted Brazilian who believes life is one big adventure worth savoring. I love Jesus with all my heart, thrive on good conversations, and can’t resist a perfectly crafted matcha latte. My passion for travel and connection started young, growing up by the ocean in Northeast Brazil. It led me to incredible experiences—from moving to the U.S. as an au pair, to exploring 29 countries as a flight attendant based in the Middle East. Along the way, I learned the beauty of stepping out of my comfort zone, embracing new cultures, and finding joy in unexpected moments. Through Layover Journals, I share stories from my travels—those unforgettable layovers, lessons learned, and the people and places that shaped me. This space is my way of inviting you to relive those memories with me while inspiring you to create your own. When I’m not writing or dreaming of my next adventure, you’ll find me soaking up time with my family, savoring the Florida sunshine, or brainstorming creative ways to make life (and work!) more meaningful.
