Do you use a memory palace? How many links per location?

I do use a memory palace per biography. It depends on the information I am storying. I try to store similar info together so I don’t have a lot of info crowded in a single location.
Take this example. I would have the name, country, phone number, and hobbies as separate locations because they are different topics. For hobbies, I connect them all together with the story method.
You can combine multiple topics together in a single location but now you have to remember there are different types of info in each location. So it wouldn’t be as easy to find what you need right away depending on how you connect the info together.
One thing to keep in mind is that you don’t even have to use a memory palace. You can just have one big story of the person and keep adding new images to the story as you learn more about the person. The story can get long and you might forget an image here or there if you are not reviewing regularly.
