I’ve blogged about my travel for years without using it to make money in any way. However, travel is expensive, so I’ve decided that if there is a way to use this website to help off-set a trip or some sweet camera without requiring me to be less opinionated, I might sign on to that.
Here’s what that means for you:
The views and opinions expressed are purely my own
I have pretty strong opinions about most things. Everything on this web site represents my opinion of the destination, product, service, etc. regardless of whether I receive a commission, freebie, or some other special deal related to it. If I said it was great, then I really thought it was great.
If I publish a guest post or sponsored post, it will be clearly identified as such. But even then it will be consistent with my values and opinions or it won’t be published.
I’ll let you know if I got a special deal
I will disclose in each post if I got a trip, hotel stay, tour, meal, admission to an attraction or event, transportation, book, or piece of gear for free or at a reduced price not available to the general public.
You need to know that because, as hard as I try, it is really hard to judge the true value of something when you didn’t pay for it yourself.
