​

1. Reader First

Our readers are at the heart of everything we do. Every piece of content, recommendation, and partnership is guided by one question: Does this provide real value to our audience?

​

2. Transparency & Honesty

We believe in authenticity. We will always disclose brand partnerships—whether paid or unpaid—not just because it's required, but because it’s the right thing to do. Our recommendations are genuine, and when information is based on personal experience rather than fact, we’ll make that clear.

​

3. Practical & Realistic Travel

Travel should be achievable, not just aspirational. We focus on real-world, practical travel advice that fits everyday budgets and schedules. Even when we collaborate with brands, we remain mindful that our readers are spending their own hard-earned money.

​

4. Gratitude & Humility

We recognize that our success is built on the support of our readers, collaborators, and the destinations we visit. We approach every opportunity with gratitude and never take it for granted.

​

5. Responsible & Ethical Travel

The content we share has an impact. We commit to educating our readers on sustainable and responsible tourism, considering how our actions and recommendations affect destinations, local communities, and the environment.

​

6. Accountability

We take full responsibility for our words and actions. Mistakes happen, and when they do, we listen, learn, and grow. We welcome constructive feedback and remain open to change.

​

7. Values Over Profit

Our guiding principle: People over profit. Every decision—from the brands we work with to how we grow our business—is based on our values, not just financial gain. That means fair wages for our team, ethical partnerships, and a long-term vision focused on impact rather than quick wins.
