I am that friend. I like to know before I go, keep things under budget, and help others do the same through my writing. Someone once said, \u2018Traveling makes you a storyteller\u2019 and it stuck with me to do more traveling and telling. You will find me the happiest in quiet spots under thick green canopies, over a delicious spread of my comfort foods, or while loudly singing my favorite tunes, or engaging in silly banter with friends and family, or on the window seat of a moving bus or train with music plugged in. The list is longer, but you get the gist!","url":"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/blog\/author\/maria-p\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/149801"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/180"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=149801"}],"version-history":[{"count":26,"href":"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/149801\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":186977,"href":"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/149801\/revisions\/186977"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/150693"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=149801"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=149801"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=149801"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
