I love extreme sports...

I’m an adventurous person and I love to challenge myself too. I have done many crazy things in my 22 years of life but I think that if I have the chance to climb Mount Everest I wouldn’t do it because I know many stories of people who die in the attempt. Anyway, there are many extreme sports that I want to do someday but definitely climbing Mount Everest is not in my plans.

In my country there are many cities where people practice extreme sports. I love rafting and I’ve practiced rafting for 3 years. One time I tried bungee jumping, it was a very fun experience but I’ll never try to do it again. I think is fun only for one time!. I went to Cuzco, a city of Peru with some friends the last summer and this city is very famous not only for the Inca’s culture, it is also famous for the extreme sports you can do there. My friends are a little crazy, they love rafting and bungee jumping and that’s why I had to do once. They pulled of me!... Whatever, it was fun..

I agree with Brandy in one important thing. Tourists in general have done much damage to the environment in many beautiful places. For example, in Cuzco, a place which I recommend all of you to visit if you have the opportunity, is very sad to find trash in the whole city. Some tourists when they go camping, climbing or just visiting used to leave trash everywhere. I don’t know why. Maybe they don’t care about it… What can we do?. I think everyone of us have to work and think about it!!.. what do you think??
