Think of a place that is important to you in some way. It could be a place you’ve only been to once but made a big impact on your, or it could be a place you go to often and are very familiar with. If this is a place you cannot return to at the moment, then use your memory to recall as much about the place as you can: Where it is, how you go there, why you were there, what it was like, what impression it made on you. Use narration and description to tell us why that place is so meaningful to you. What did it teach you and why? Why do you have such a lasting impression of it?
Minimum Requirements
