Here's a preview of the text for the writing challenge, when you're ready click the start button above:

- I like camping but I don't like sleeping in a tent. For me, a camper van is a better option because I want a real bed and I don't have to go outside in order to have a shower or go to the toilet. - I prefer tents because I'm closer to nature. Plus, a tent is less cumbersome than a camper van, so I can go everywhere! But I'm not going to lie: I miss my hot shower!

Getting that for you now...
