Travel Journals?

[lassarina]

Hello journaling friends! I have been bullet journaling for several years and I think I might like to take up travel journaling, but in addition to what I can find on the wide Interwebs, I thought I'd consult the community knowledge base!

Do you travel journal? During a trip or after? What do you consider essential? Other thoughts? (I barely even know what I'm asking, I just keep seeing the term and ordered a beautiful new notebook I have no plans for, so....might as well!)

Thanks in advance ♥

They make notebook systems called Travelers Notebooks that I think were originally designed for journaling while traveling although I don't think most people who use them now are using them while traveling. The original was made by Midori, but many places make them now. They are typically leather covers, and you put multiple smaller notes inside.

Here's a good article about them: https://www.wellappointeddesk.com/2022/10/a-deep-dive-into-elastic-planner-systems-aka-travelers-notebooks-fauxdori/

Oh, that's really interesting! I have a notebook I was looking for an excuse to use (Notebook Therapy finally put their Winter Tsuki back in stock and I grabbed that within five minutes of geting the email, and wanted something interesting and fun to put in it) but I might consider a traveler's notebook for later, if I keep it up.

Thank you!
