Today we’d like to introduce you to Valeria Charrabe.
Hi Valeria, can you start by introducing yourself? We’d love to learn more about how you got to where you are today?
Passionate about discovering new places and creating memorable experiences for my children and family, I began exploring everything the city of Houston has to offer. From charming little spots serving traditional Arabic, Colombian, and Mexican cuisine to some of the largest and most impressive museums we’ve ever visited, I am always in search of experiences that are worth it—bringing us together as a family and offering others the chance to enjoy them at a great value.
That’s how our blog on social media started: with genuine recommendations others could use to discover amazing places.
Since Houston is a bustling city with heavy traffic, we can’t afford to waste time visiting places that don’t live up to expectations. That’s the essence of what we share on our platforms: honest and curated suggestions for our growing community of followers every day.
We believe there are experiences to fit every type of family and every kind of budget. Houston and its surroundings might present themselves as a bustling business city, filled with office buildings and home to one of the largest medical centers in the world, but there’s also plenty of fun to be had here.
Interactive museums and parks, unique exhibitions, and restaurants serving authentic cuisine make Houston a treasure trove of opportunities.
With its incredibly diverse community, Houston offers the chance to taste dishes from countless regions around the world—without ever needing to board a plane.
Amazing, right?
We also take advantage of our location to explore nearby cities like Dallas, San Antonio, Galveston, and Waco. Each of these destinations surprises us with its incredible variety of entertainment and hidden gems.
Texas is full of surprises, and we’ve discovered some truly remarkable experiences that make this state unforgettable. Here are just a few of the highlights that have left us in awe:
NASA in Galveston: Space enthusiasts, take note! The employees at NASA are not only experts in their field but also incredibly passionate about sharing their knowledge. Ask them anything about space, and you’ll get insightful, enthusiastic answers. We’ve tested this on every visit, and they never fail to impress.
The Houston Interactive Aquarium: This is no ordinary zoo. At the aquarium, there’s one unique rule: you can touch the animals! It’s a hands-on, up-close experience that’s both thrilling and educational—something you won’t find in conventional zoos.
Wine with a Rhino in Fredericksburg: Yes, you read that right. Sip on local wines while getting up close and personal with a majestic rhino. It’s an unforgettable blend of Texas charm and exotic adventure.
An Artificial Beach in Waco’s Hill Country: Who says you need the coast to enjoy a stunning beach? Waco is home to one of the largest artificial beaches in the U.S., set against the backdrop of Texas hill country—a perfect spot for relaxation and family fun.
We love exploring Texas and sharing our trusted recommendations. Our goal? To help you spend less time deciding and more time making memories
I’m sure it wasn’t obstacle-free, but would you say the journey has been fairly smooth so far?
The road has been relatively smooth for us! Our only real concern is ensuring we don’t create overly high expectations for a destination. We always aim to highlight the best aspects of the places we visit without exaggerating or creating false expectations. If we visit somewhere that we didn’t enjoy or feel wasn’t worth recommending, we simply choose not to share it with our community. Authenticity is key for us, and we want every recommendation to genuinely add value to those who follow our journey.
Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your work?
I hold a degree in Marketing and Communications and have spent years traveling the world, exploring diverse destinations, and immersing myself in different cultures. Along the way, I found a way to blend my professional expertise with my passion for travel and discovery, creating a fulfilling and meaningful journey that combines both.
