Inspiring Travel Writing from Nadia Latif
Nadia is based in London, but escapes whenever she can, wherever she can, be it a luxury hotel in Edinburgh or a traditional guesthouse in Chefchaoen. Her wanderings have taken her to China and through the majority of Europe, and she has travelled around North Africa and Jordan in recent years too.
After a stint of backpacking around Eastern Europe she moved to the capital, in the hope that it would shock her into finding a ‘serious job’. Happily, she’s found herself immersed in her very favourite things – travelling and travel writing, as a web content editor working in the travel industry.

Marbella
The Costa del Sol gets some seriously unfair coverage as a rowdy, holiday resort-type destination. True, there are pockets of it that cater to Club 18-30, but we at TI Towers are determined to prove that this is the exception, rather than the rule....

Riad Numero 9

TI was tired and thoroughly disorientated when we arrived at Riad Numero 9. Shrugging off the offer of a riad-sent guide (how hard could it be?) we landed in Fez quite unprepared for the twisting maze of alleyways and unmarked side streets, so...

Fez sits immovable and sprawling in a dusty basin in northern Morocco. Its tangle of alleyways and side-streets are mostly unmarked, and a complete conundrum for the uninitiated traveller. It is the oldest intact medieval medina in the Islamic world...

Hotels within walking distance of the Eiffel Tower are, for the most part, heinously expensive or slightly seedy. What the 1st arrondissement is crying out for is affordable accommodation that doesn’t err on the side of faded chintz and sticky...

The Portobello in London's Notting Hill is a lesson in the sort of discreet and homely charm that seems to work wonders with the entertainment industry. Tucked away from all the flashy and glamourous boutiques that proclaim their rock-star status in...
