Blog 1 A country I would like to visit
Dear Students, This is your course Blog, here you can find all the instructions and samples to guide you on your writing.
Our first post is titled A country I would like to visit.
Please check out my sample:
Fitzcarraldo (1982), filmed in Iquitos, you should definitely watch this movie
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.
My jungle bro.
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.
Iquitos, Peru.
So, What do you think about my choice?

Tip: Write down at least 3 or 4 key words, and create sentences related to these ideas. This is the backbone of your post.
Do not use a translator, It is awkward, inacurate, and very boring!

ResponderEliminarThat beautiful country, the Amazon jungle is very beautiful, there is much wealth, I hope you can go soon!
ResponderEliminarVery nice choice! I imagine that is a great and natural place... and make me have intentions to go also. I think living in a city we forget the nature and the importance of being in contact and harmony with this.
ResponderEliminarHello Daniel, to many we happen that for time and money we can not travel everywhere :(
ResponderEliminarTeacher you have had a nice trip! I would like to visit that country some day, I hope very soon. This year I have been at México, it's amazing country, I want to get there again when I can
ResponderEliminarHi Daniel! I also travelled to the south oh Peru, is beautiful. I think that the tourism is good, but best, is to know the real life, out the commercial and tourist zones, then you can find the rich of this poverty. Bye !
ResponderEliminarHi Daniel! At tho months ago i had the pleassure of travel ay Perú whit muy family. Whe stay one week on Cuzco, meeting the city and other places like Machupichu, Maras and Moray. It was a beauthifull and really funny experience.
ResponderEliminarHi teacher! I think Iquitos Peru is a wonderful place to visit, and I believe your idea of teaching english and help them to increase the tourism is great.
ResponderEliminarHi Teacher! I love Perú, and Iquitos seem very interesting! Last year I went to Lima, and this year I will go to Arequipa. It is a amazing country and I hope to visit more places!
ResponderEliminarHi teacher, I hope that your holiday dream comes true soon, because im pretty sure that the people of Iquitos are claiming for your English teaching, they want to get to level 4!
ResponderEliminarHi teacher! After seeing some images of Iquitos in google I definitely think thats a wonderful choice to travel!, especially if you want to see the other face of Peru, the face who is usually masked by tourism in Machupichu or Cuzco, and get more of a "unique experience".
