Hello! I'm Jessica Gabrielzyk, the voice behind this podcast that unites parents abroad. Initially started as a community for Brazilians, it has expanded to include everyone. At the end of the day, it doesn’t matter who you are, where you came from, or where you’re going, we are all in the same boat. I aim to connect, inspire, and support mothers and fathers around the world, blending rich traditions with the beauty of the cultures that welcome us. Here, we celebrate parenthood far from home, keeping our roots alive while embracing new experiences. Welcome to our inclusive community!
