This website is a personal blog written and edited by Cameron and Nicole Wears, a.k.a. the “Traveling Canucks”, located at www.touristify.live (“Website”). At times, this blog allows outside contributors to provide stories, content and photos.

The goal of this website is to share our personal travel experiences and we may promote products or services from time to time. However, we are not responsible if our readers have a bad experience because of our recommendations.

Sometimes we accept sponsored trips, free flights or hotel nights, free tours, free meals at restaurants, and other general freebies. Sometimes we are compensated to provide opinion on products, services, websites and various other topics. In these situations, we will leave an “editor’s disclosure” at the bottom of the post to inform our readers.

Throughout this website, you are able to link to other websites which are not under the control of this blog. We have no control over the nature, content and availability of those sites. The inclusion of any links does not necessarily imply a recommendation or endorse the views expressed within them.

Even though we may receive compensation for our posts or advertisements, we always give our honest opinions, findings, beliefs, or experiences on those topics or products. The views and opinions expressed on this blog are entirely our own. Any product claim, statistic, quote or other representation about a product or service should be verified with the manufacturer, provider or party in question.

Every effort is made to keep the website running smoothly. However, TravelingCanucks.com takes no responsibility for, and will not be liable for, the website being temporarily unavailable due to technical issues beyond our control.
