If you enjoy books about travel, which travel author inspired you to travel? Did they inspire you to travel to a particular place?
- One book I quite enjoyed was "The Happy Isles of Oceania" by Paul Theroux. His adventures in the South Pacific, paddling around to various islands in a kayak, were quite interesting to read about and inspired me to kayak when I was in Fiji. What about you? Where were you inspired to travel by an author?

Not a travel author, but a novel. Black Water Sister by Zen Cho made me really want to visit Kuala Lumpur.
