Sojournalist is a personal blog written and edited by me, Adrienne. The articles are written and created from my first-hand experiences and/or extensive research on a destination, product, service, or company.
What is “Affiliate Marketing”?
If you click on an affiliate link on this site and make a purchase, I may receive a small commission. This does NOT result in any additional cost to you, and supports my business.
Sojournalist is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.
As an Airbnb associate, I earn when you book through my links.
On this blog, I also place affiliate links from other companies such as Booking.com, Get Your Guide, World Nomads, and Viator. Any qualifying purchases made through these links may earn advertising fees. However, I would never recommend products, destinations, or services that I wouldn’t book myself.
Complimentary items or services
I pay for my own travel including hotels and flights.
If in the future I receive any complimentary services like flights, tours or hotel stays, or if I am provided with complimentary items to review, this will be indicated in the article. Regardless, I will always share my honest personal opinions.
If you have any questions regarding this Disclosure Policy, please contact me.
Disclaimer
The various hotels, stays, tours, and recommendations are not error-proof. Extra precautions and additional research are always advised, and Sojournalist cannot be held responsible for your personal safety or experiences while traveling.
While I have not stayed in every hotel or Airbnb featured, unless otherwise stated, these listings are vetted based on amenities, location, previous guest reviews, and decor. Similarly, tours, travel products, and other recommendations are researched and vetted.
FTC Guidelines
The Federal Trade Commission requires that I disclose to readers when I endorse a product or service and have a “material connection” to the seller.
These FTC guidelines are available online. (Specifically, §255.5: Disclosure of Material Connections.)
