Please check out my sample:
Iquitos, Peru.
If you ask me, I have always dreamt about going for a long holiday trip around the world. I know it is no easy task, but I really like the idea of moving constantly from place to place, meeting new people and adapting to their customs. Some years ago, I backpacked to the south of Peru, It was a wonderful experience. I loved every bit about it. The beautiful sights, the warmth of the people, and all the fun you can find even when you are on a budget!
If I had the time and money I would love to get back there, but this time I would choose to go north, to Iquitos, and stay a whole season in the jungle.
Iquitos is the capital city of the Loreto department, it has no road access, so you can only access it by plane or boat.
Once there, I'd really like to get on a boat trip on the amazon river, find a tourist lodge that offered jungle tours and finally, just spending some quiet time.
I am aware that this region is one of Peru's poorest, so I cannot ignore this fact. If possible, I'd like to help people maybe with some English teaching, and help them to increase the tourism.
A big problem here is that there are not strong laws protecting the forest nor the wildlife. I would really like to meet the people working in conservation.
On a personal level, I would use this trip to disconnect myself from everyday life, and also to take pictures, drawings and create paintings about the people living and working next to one of the last natural reservoirs.

My jungle brother.
Fitzcarraldo (1982), filmed in Iquitos, you should definitely watch this movie!
So, What do you think about my choice? Please leave a comment below!

Write at least 160 words.
Tips: Write down at least 3 or 4 keywords, and create sentences related to these ideas. This is the backbone of your post.
Do not use a translator, It is awkward, inaccurate, and very boring!
Instead, try using this dictionary: www.wordreference.com

Staying in the jungle must be a wonderful experience! I hope that you can visit Perú again sometime.
