Comment Policy and Community Guidelines

Last updated: March 21, 2026

"Travel is about connection, not just destination."
(Viajar é sobre conexão, não apenas destino.)

1. Our Global Travel Community

Welcome to the Destinos Fascinantes community. Although we started with a special focus on Europe, our mission now spans the entire world, seeking authentic hidden gems and immersive stories across all continents.

We believe honest conversations create the best travel guides. This policy ensures our comment section remains a valuable resource for travelers from all corners of the globe.

2. Languages We Speak

Our content is created primarily for a multilingual audience. We welcome comments in:

  • 🇧🇷 Portuguese (Brazil) – Primary language
  • 🇺🇸 🇬🇧 English
  • 🇫🇷 French
  • 🇪🇸 🇲🇽 🇦🇷 Spanish

Other languages are also welcome! While our team prioritizes responses in the four languages above, we use translation tools to ensure every voice is heard and valued.

"Keep exploring, keep sharing." (Continuem explorando, continuem compartilhando.)

3. What We Encourage on Our Travel Blog

We love hearing your stories! Feel free to:

  • ✅ Share personal experiences: Visited a hidden gem we mentioned? Tell us how it went.
  • ✅ Ask practical questions: Best times to visit, accommodation tips, or local transportation.
  • ✅ Offer additional tips: Local restaurants, secret paths, or cultural insights not covered in the post.
  • ✅ Correct information gently: Help us keep our guides accurate and up-to-date.

4. Zero Tolerance Rules

To maintain a safe and inspiring environment, we will remove any comment that:

  • ❌ Is offensive, discriminatory, or constitutes hate speech.
  • ❌ Contains personal attacks against other users or the author.
  • ❌ Shares private data (addresses, phone numbers, financial information).
  • ❌ Spreads misinformation or fake news about destinations.
  • ❌ Is pure spam (unrelated links, bots, repetitive content).

5. Promotional Content and Link Partnerships

We value genuine partnerships and content creators who share our passion for authentic travel.

⚠️ Important Rule: Purely promotional comments ("Buy my course", "Visit my website") without context will be removed.

The Link Reciprocity Exception

We accept comments containing promotional links or references to other blogs/channels PROVIDED there is openness for link reciprocity.

  1. Add Value First: Your comment must be relevant to the article and contribute to the discussion.
  2. Include Your Link: Share your project naturally within the context of your comment.
  3. Openness to Collaboration: If your content is high-quality and aligned with our values (storytelling, authentic travel), we may consider exchanging mentions or links in future collaborations.

Comments that demand links without offering prior value or dialogue will be moderated.

Affiliate Disclosure

If you recommend a product or service in your comment and receive a commission for it, you must clearly disclose that relationship in your comment. Transparency is fundamental to our community's trust.

6. Moderation and Response Time

  • Moderation: All comments are reviewed (before or after publication) to ensure compliance with these rules.
  • Response Time: Our goal is to respond to practical questions within 48 business hours. However, as we are frequently traveling in the field, response times may vary.
  • Quality Control: Generic comments (e.g., just "great post" without context) may not be published to maintain discussion relevance.

7. Disclaimer

Opinions expressed in comments are the sole responsibility of their authors and do not necessarily reflect the views of Destinos Fascinantes. While we strive to verify practical information shared by users, we do not guarantee the accuracy of tips provided by the community. Always confirm critical travel details (safety, prices, operating hours) from official sources before your trip.

🤝 By posting a comment, you agree to these terms.
Thank you for being part of our global journey in search of Earth's most fascinating destinations.

"Authentic journeys start with honest conversations." (Jornadas autênticas começam com conversas honestas.)
