5 Top Tips to Travel Journalling

A travel journal is a great way to document your memories to look back on time and time again, but we understand it can be hard to put pen to paper sometimes, so we're here to share our 5 Top Tips to help you on your way to creating the most precious memory book we know you'll treasure for a long time to come! 

Top Tip 1. Write During the Trip

Our journals are small and compact enough to throw in your hand luggage and travel with you far and wide, we designed them this way to encourage you to write as you go! We all know that a few days/weeks can go by and we can so easily forget what we've done, which is exactly what we want to avoid with our journals.

As much as it's sometimes easier said than done we promise that it'll be worth it in the long run when you have all of your beautiful and exciting memories stored in one place!

Top Tip 2. Add Pictures

Taking pictures of anything and everything comes naturally to most of us nowadays, and most of the time they stay on our phone to be looked back on once in a while... if at all! But how nice is it to flick through an albums full of printed photographs?

This is why we've left blank spaces in our travel journal to enable you to add as many (or as few) photographs as you like, and with our handy photo corners it's super simple to stick them in as you go!

Top Tip 3. Use Prompts

We know that one of the main sticking points when writing down your stories and memories is getting going, which is where our handy prompts come in! Use them as little or as often as you need to give you a helpful push in the right direction, and once you've got that pen going we know you won't be able to stop.

Top Tip 4. Write About the People

It doesn't matter if you travel alone, with your partner, family or friends we know that you'll make amazing memories together. Whether it be with your travel companion or the people who you meet along the way, someone will have an impact on your trip or even life! It could be anyone from a shop vendor at the local market to the flight attendant on you journey home, you don't know who you'll meet and the story they have to tell but just remember to write them down!

Top Tip 5. Get Creative

Not only do we recommend using the blank pages for photographs but these sections of the journal are the perfect place to get creative, anything from scrapbooking to drawing and painting or simply continuing your diary entry for the trip, the choice is yours!

So... when are you going to start your travel memory book?
