Hi, I'm Regina Oki,
the "FullTime Tourist"
Hi, I’m Regina Oki — born in São Paulo, Dutch at heart, and a true Carioca in spirit! Passionate about traveling, I spent eight years living in the Netherlands and now I call Rio de Janeiro home. Besides writing for Turista FullTime, I also run a travel agency specialized in tailor-made itineraries and assisting foreigners visiting Brazil. Here, I share experiences, tips, and inspiration for those who believe traveling is much more than just changing the scenery.
