A note on research and sources
Most of the tips that I share come from my own experiences. I do online research to learn more about the topics. I try to link to the original source for specific facts and statistics. If you have any questions about sources, don’t hesitate to get in touch.

A note on photos
Most of the photos on this blog come from Pexels, Unsplash or myself. If I use a photo from elsewhere, I make sure to credit the source/photographer.
