My favorite word is \"Opportunity \". I strongly believe in optimism and miracles. I have a keen interest in knowing about places and people. I love writing about travel, beauty care, self-help, parenting, career and much more interesting stuff around the world. I have previously worked as a Training Manager. My passion for writing has made me a full-time writer today. However, that does not stop me from taking care of my son's lessons. I am a big-time Foodie. I love spending time with my family. I am also fond of reading books, dancing, singing my own song, workout, and movies.","url":"https:\/\/www.tusktravel.com\/blog\/author\/paromita\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tusktravel.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5051","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tusktravel.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tusktravel.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tusktravel.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tusktravel.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5051"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.tusktravel.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5051\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tusktravel.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5062"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tusktravel.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5051"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tusktravel.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5051"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tusktravel.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5051"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
