How I journal | A love letter to my Traveler's Notebook

[@catherinewalks1207]

What a lovely set up, including the monthly highlights. I think this is one of the nicest ways I've seen the traveller's journal used.

[@maya-f8j]

love the monthly highlights idea! Can I ask how you print those photos? Thanks!

[@aleshortforalejandra]

@@maya-f8j I’m glad you like the highlights:) they’ve brought me lots of joy! As for the photos, I print them on my canon selphy - using their collage setting and then I cut them to size. I should be including that in my next video which might be a better way to see the steps one by one :)

[@DeniseEdwards-n4n]

This is a stellar setup! Curious, where'd you get your gold pen holder?

[@aleshortforalejandra]

@@maggieg2724 Why thank you!! I purchased it at my local stationery store but I’ve seen it at lots of stationery stores that sell midori products :) it’s called ‘Midori Miniclip Penholder in Gold’
