Where every fact comes from
Each place, photograph, forecast and piece of advice on these pages comes from a source that lets us use it. Here is every one: its licence, the credit it asks for, what we use it for and how often we fetch it again.

AI-generated images
A few images on this site were made with an AI image model rather than photographed. None of them shows a real person.
- What
- The 25 portraits of the example travellers on the Travellers page and in the community section of the front page.
- Made with
- Higgsfield, using the GPT Image 2.5 model, on 29 October 2026. Each portrait was written from the example profile it belongs to (age, where they are from, where they are going).
- How they are marked
- Every portrait sits next to an “Example profile” label, and the top of the Travellers page says the profiles are examples with AI-generated photos.
- Why
- To show how the community will look before real travellers join. They will be removed as real profiles take their place.
