That is pretty much about me, a brown girl who was born to read and write. So what inspired me to write about and for travelling? I'd say, Mark Twain, for his description of the voyages or Paulo Coelho for his pilgrimages, and the list would go on. But in reality, it is the fact that I was born in the hill-country! The wet roads, the fog, the greenery, and the never-ending supply of fresh coffee has always kept me introverted to observe the little things about the world, and these, you will find in all my writings. Oh, and I also bond well over movies, cats, and love cooking!","sameAs":["https:\/\/www.travelcenter.uk\/"],"url":"https:\/\/www.travelcenter.uk\/blog\/author\/nuha-faye\/"}]}},"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/www.travelcenter.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Cancelled-Christmas-Markets-2020-Vs.-Virtual-Christmas-Markets.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.travelcenter.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23292","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.travelcenter.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.travelcenter.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.travelcenter.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/357"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.travelcenter.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=23292"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www.travelcenter.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23292\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":40317,"href":"https:\/\/www.travelcenter.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23292\/revisions\/40317"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.travelcenter.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/40314"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.travelcenter.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=23292"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.travelcenter.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=23292"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.travelcenter.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=23292"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
