Bruna Surfistinha

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bruna Surfistinha is the pen name name of Raquel Pacheco, a Brazilian former prostitute who attracted the attention of Brazilian media and television by publishing, in a weblog, her sexual experiences with clients. Bruna explained in television programs that she was a normal girl, but that at around the age of 17 she left home because of the traditional family oriented views of her father and to start to earn money.

Bruna appeared in various television programs in Brazil and several periodicals and magazines. Her blog attracts more than 50,000 readers per day. In 2005 she released a book: O Doce Veneno do Escorpião (The Scorpion's Sweet Venom) (ISBN 85-7695-017-0).

The book was translated into English with the name 'Diary of a Brazilian call girl. The Scorpion's Sweet Venom', and published by Bloomsbury Publishing in 2006.
