He vivido y compartido la inmensidad del desierto con los tuareg en el sur de Argelia, mi pa\u00eds de acogida durante cuatro intensos a\u00f1os que me aportaron experiencias \u00fanicas y momentos m\u00e1gicos. Pis\u00e9 \u00c1frica por primera vez en 1996 y desde entonces nunca me he separado del continente madre. M\u00e1s de 20 a\u00f1os dise\u00f1ando experiencias, viajes conscientes y responsables que transforman tanto a viajeros como a destinos, incluso a m\u00ed misma. Amante incondicional de los animales y apasionada de la fotograf\u00eda, actualmente curso un Master en Comunicaci\u00f3n en ENEB.","sameAs":["https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/sylviapallares\/?hl=es","https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/sylviapallar\u00e8s\/"],"url":"https:\/\/www.indigobe.com\/en\/blog\/author\/sylvia\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.indigobe.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10334","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.indigobe.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.indigobe.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.indigobe.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/11"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.indigobe.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10334"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.indigobe.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10334\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.indigobe.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8095"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.indigobe.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10334"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.indigobe.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=10334"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.indigobe.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=10334"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
