The Break is looking for writers!  Are you interested in contributing to an online English magazine geared towards young people living in Lima, Peru? If you know a lot about what is going on in the city and want to write about it, we’d love for you to work with us.

Requirements:
-Between the ages of 18 and 25 (we can be somewhat flexible with this if your writing skill and knowledge of Lima compensates)
-Fluent in English (native English not required, but must be very advanced)
-Experience writing in English
-Must live in Lima, Peru
-Time and willingness to occasionally attend events, visit hot spots, etc.
-Must have own computer, Internet and space to work from home

Pay: Each article that meets set guidelines (quality, word count, photos, etc.) will be compensated s/.35, with a minimum of 2 and a maximum of 3 published articles per week.  Please note: Although pay is per article, the job requires a commitment to a minimum number of published articles per week.  If you cannot submit at least 2 per week, please do not apply.

To apply, please submit to af@livinginperu.com:
-A cover letter that describes in under 300 words why you want to write for and what you could contribute to The Break
