Hi, I’m Bruna, and I’m incredibly excited to have the opportunity to live in a place that has always been a dream of mine. I’m looking forward to immersing myself in the culture, learning about local customs, and building connections with people I never imagined I would meet. Living in the USA has been a goal of mine for as long as I can remember, and since I was 12 years old, I’ve dreamed of experiencing high school life there. Most people call me Bruna, but some also call me Bru or Bruninha. I’m an only child, and with just three cousins, I consider my family to be quite small. I’ve been living with my mother since my parents separated in 2022, but I have a great relationship with both of them. During the weekdays, I live with my mother in the south of Brazil. It is a place known for its stunning beaches, lush nature, and a vibrant mix of modern city life with a laid-back coastal atmosphere. Our apartment is very practical and well-located, making it easy to get around. On weekends, I usually spend time with my father, grandparents, and my boyfriend, Felipe. I love spending my days there enjoying the beaches, exploring nature trails, and sharing quality time with my loved ones. Our house is large and situated on top of a hill, offering an incredible view of a beautiful lagoon. It’s a special place for me—I love my bedroom because it’s spacious, has a private bathroom, and is very comfortable. The house is located in a beautiful gated community, where my maternal grandmother lives right in front of us, and my paternal grandparents live behind us. This allows me to spend a lot of time with them during weekends. I’m currently dating Felipe, who was my classmate throughout elementary school. He is my age and still studies at the same school. We’ve known each other for a long time, and our relationship is very special to me. I also have a Belgian Malinois dog named Luna. She is five years old and usually stays at my father’s house, but she comes to stay with us when he needs to travel or spend the day away. Luna is energetic and very loyal, and I love having her around. My father is retired—he started working very young and now dedicates himself entirely to surfing. He is a big-wave surfer, and last year, he won an award for riding the biggest wave surfed in Brazil. He also surfs internationally, including in Nazaré, Portugal, known for its giant waves. My mother, on the other hand, has been a Federal Police Delegate for 21 years. She is very dedicated to her work and takes great pride in being a police officer. Despite her demanding job, she loves to take care of herself and is very feminine. My weekly routine is quite busy. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, I have classes all day, which keeps me focused and organized. I am passionate about learning and take my studies seriously, always striving to do my best. In my free time, I focus on studying and going to the gym with my friends, where I do weight training. Exercising not only helps me stay healthy but also provides a great way to relieve stress and socialize. I particularly enjoy spending time with my friends at the gym, as it allows us to motivate each other while having fun. Additionally, I like to read books, watch movies, and learn new things that broaden my knowledge and perspectives. When it comes to my personality, I would describe myself as a calm and thoughtful person. I’m not talkative, and I sometimes enjoy spending time alone, even though I have many friends. While I’m naturally introspective, I also love going to parties, socializing, and sharing fun moments with the people I care about. I believe this balance between enjoying solitude and being outgoing allows me to adapt easily to new environments and experiences. I value deep and meaningful relationships and always make an effort to support and listen to those around me. I am also curious and open-minded, which drives me to embrace new cultures and perspectives, enriching my understanding of the world. I am an organized and responsible person, which allows me to manage my belongings, schedule, and various tasks efficiently. I don’t need my parents to remind me of my responsibilities because I am proactive and always know what needs to be done. Thank you!
