Affiliate Disclosure
Transparency is part of the OG way.
🔗 What Are Affiliate Links?
Some links on TravelOG are affiliate links. This means if you click through and make a purchase, book a stay, or sign up for a service, I may earn a small commission — at no extra cost to you.
✅ You pay the same price
✅ I only recommend products/services I've personally used or thoroughly researched
✅ Commissions help fund travel research, hosting, and content creation
🎯 My Recommendation Standards
I don't promote products just because they offer commissions. Every recommendation follows this checklist:
- First-hand experience: I've used the gear, stayed at the property, or booked through the platform.
- Value alignment: The product/service supports authentic, intentional, budget-smart travel.
- Reader benefit: It solves a real problem or enhances the travel experience.
- Transparency: If a post contains affiliate links, it's clearly disclosed at the top.
🤝 Common Partners on TravelOG
You may encounter affiliate links from trusted travel partners such as:
- Booking.com

Note: Partner programs may change. This list is updated quarterly.
✍️ Editorial Independence
TravelOG content is never influenced by affiliate relationships. Reviews, guides, and recommendations reflect my honest opinion and field-tested experience. If a product or service doesn't meet my standards, I won't recommend it — even if it pays well.
