I have less than 2 months to figure out how to make a uniform consisting of a tracksuit look decent– maybe even good. Wish me luck.

Olá! I saw you're going to Brazil! (I'm Brazilian btw) I hope my country make a warm welcome to you! What are the first things you wanna try there?
Ahhh thank you! Muito obrigada! Sorry this is such a late reply, I’ve been away. Every Brazilian I’ve talked to has been so friendly so far, so even before I’ve arrived, I’ve gotten a warm welcome :) Oh wow, I have no idea what I want to do first besides meet my host family and try Brazilian food haha, do you have any suggestions?

What being an exchange student means
Being a high school exchange student means:
That you made the best and worst decision to leave home for the year.
Giving people a reason to love your home country.
That your current life floats in a different bubble, and you become worried that it will pop.
Becoming a part of a family despite differences of culture.
That you cant walk to the bathroom without any pants on because there’s a risk that a member of your host family will see you.
You arrive in a place filled with people that have no prior judgements of you.
Learning a new culture is your job.
Schooling becomes something different.
You’re a teenager in a foreign country.
You learn new swear words that you can get away with saying back in your home country.
Acting crazy in public because you know that the general population will not ever see you again.
Making your own decisions.
Eating “weird” foods.
Making friends from every corner on the planet.
Developing a different sense of pride for your home and host country.
Deciding how to live your life.
