✒️ JOURNAL WITH ME | Traveler's Notebook Setup: Olive Green - Victorian Garden Theme (ASMR)

[@Manara111111]

the color is amaazing

[@camiscottage]

Thank you!

[@bubblesbubblesbubblesbubbles]

I like more talking. There's so many ASMR channels. It's nice to have a journaling channel where there's talking cuz we get to see more of a persons personality and some of their motivation to journal and why you do pages a sort of way.

[@camiscottage]

That's exactly how I feel, thank you so much for your comment. I'll definitely have two different versions, since I'm already editing a version without the voice haha. I appreciate your input, as always :)

[@alipockers7854]

Your voice provides the most asmr for me! I vote for more talking :)

[@camiscottage]

Haha I also prefer more talking! But it was good to test it out and see. I promise it’ll be much more chatty in the next one 🥰 thank you for your comment!

[@85perezr]

I agree! I’d love to hear more talking 😀

[@dajanayjohnson9297]

I agree... your voice is soothing... 😌

[@dajanayjohnson9297]

Also... what style of music is this in the background?

[@camiscottage]

@@dajanayjohnson9297 I use epidemic sound for my music and look for piano instrumentals under the relaxing category!

[@kat_ie_9984]

More talking from me. Maybe record the asmr version when you actually doing the filming then do normal voice over and post both 😊. I have been enjoying your usual style videos so far

[@camiscottage]

Oh that’s a great idea! I dont know why I didnt think of posting both 😅 that’s a great suggestion. I’ll definitely do that next time. I appreciate your comment very much!

[@emmawikander8382]

I'm in love with the soft, olivegreen theme. Your voice is very soothing, I like it. The "letter" to the first page made me smile xD

[@camiscottage]

I can't get enough of the cover, hahaa. This is my favorite shade of green! And thank you for your kind words. I'm glad you enjoyed that first page, haha. It's the best way to break the ice, I think :) have a great day!

[@emmaengland2726]

The combo of some talking with ASMR journaling sounds are great for both quieting my mind and for background noise while I work on my own bujo.

[@camiscottage]

I agree! There are some journaling sounds that I really love, so I'll try to find a nice balance between the two. I'm also very happy you work on your own bujo at the same time. That's one of the goals I had for the channel :) thank you for your comment!

[@LukaD90]

Definitely like more talking, your voice is so soothing!!! Even with the sounds in the background, but I enjoy watching your vids, just brings a sense of calm while I journal, and that's hard as I have ADHD so my mind is always racing, but you definitely sooth the soul, so I like your vids with talking. Maybe upload one with narration, and upload one without that's just the sound and music? Might be too much work but thats one way to keep all parties happy I guess 😅 keep up the great work!

[@camiscottage]

I can relate, I also have ADHD and its' been a challenge since I no longer can take medication for it (I'm still breastfeeding my son). But, journaling does help me calm my mind so I know how it feels to find something that helps slow things down in your head. I'll definitely stick to more talking next time, thank you so much for your comment and your kind words! I'm glad to have you around :)

[@michaelaschmid]

Perfect amount of talking. Letting us know the info and time to relax in between. Love it!

[@camiscottage]

I really like that pace as well, but I probably will speak a bit more in between and create a version with less talking. I appreciate your input and comment

[@penthevision4706]

All of your videos are a joy to watch. On balance I prefer then with no ASMR

[@camiscottage]

I’m feeling the same as well. I think I can add a few here or there but it’s kind of jarring IMO. Others have suggested uploading two videos so I can experiment with that as well. Thanks you for your kind comment and your input. It’s very much appreciated.

[@TheLibraryofOddities]

This was so relaxing 🥰 I have so much anxiety and trouble sleeping but this really helped! I love journal process videos and your voice is so soothing paired with the rustling paper and music. Thank you!

[@FadedChronicle]

I am in love with your channel 😍 your voice really helps me to calm down 😊 Thank you for sharing your set up!! Your journal is beautiful ❤ sending hugs to you and your family!

[@camiscottage]

you're so sweet, thank you very much! I love sharing all my journaling and notebook sessions, so it's a win win for me. I appreciate your kind words, have a wonderful day!

[@spc2785]

I'm someone who listens to a lot of asmr and has recently gotten into journaling, these types of videos are really relaxing to me. Maybe try a video with softer speaking and maybe one with no talking but either way this one and your 2021 set up video were amazing.

[@camiscottage]

Thank you I appreciate the feedback ! Someone suggested two videos. One with and one without talking. I dont know why I didnt think of that before, but your suggestions are also good! Thanks so much for your comment 😍

[@ellenl9774]

Your voice is so soothing! I think the combo of your voice and the journaling sounds is so relaxing! Please make more videos!!

[@camiscottage]

I think that’s what I’ll aim for with these JWM videos. I want to keep a nice balance. I’ll also release a sounds only version for those who really want it. It doesn’t cost me too much trouble. And more videos are coming! I’m going as fast as I can 😅

[@dajanayjohnson9297]

Also...again lol... What a beautiful community you’ve built here. The crowd you’ve draw together is so nice. Everyone seems so kind. I’m so grateful to have found your channel and am able to read just kind words from your KZbin family. 😌😌

[@camiscottage]

Haha I’m reading your comments backwards I think bc I’m starting here but I completely agree! This has been such a sweet community and everyone is so kind 🥺 I’m very grateful.

[@sarahquinn3366]

Personally, I like the videos with your voice. You have a soothing voice, so it's still very nice to listen to and I like hearing you explain your process. Watching these videos is very relaxing and inspirational! It turned out beautifully! I love the florals, they look amazing. Watching you journal always helps motivate me to journal as well. Your videos are really awesome. 🥰

[@camiscottage]

Those are the same reasons why I like to talk in my videos. I'm definitely going to speak up more in the next ones. I appreciate your input and your kind words. Florals are my favorite! I'm so glad to help with your journaling motivation

[@SK-rs3vw]

Adorable! Love your raspy soft voice and the decor...was awesome! Coffee pot and roses very victorian... yes!

[@camiscottage]

Thank you! 🙈 I used to hate my voice when I was younger but I’ve grown to like it. And YES who can really say no to roses and coffee 🥰

[@katinawilliams6052]

Love the relaxing background music. Could take a nap 😴 I love your voice, so I say keep doing your videos like you do. Whatever feels right and makes you happy ❤️

[@camiscottage]

Haha, I almost fell asleep editing it! But you're right, I'll definitely stick to what I enjoy. I'm very much a fan of chatty videos, but I understand when someone wants something with less speaking, so I may upload two versions like other are suggesting. Thank you so much for your comment!

[@s.478]

Personally, I prefer more talk to ASMR, also because you have a lovely voice. Thnx for the video!

[@camiscottage]

You're very sweet thank you, I'll keep up with the voice then and have a separate video for others who don't want to hear too much talking, as others suggested. I appreciate your input and your kind comment. Have a great day!

[@caelointheclouds]

So awesome to see an unboxing a Travelers Company Artifact!!! I only opened my Olive once and still havent used it! Thanks for the inspiration! Great video!!

[@camiscottage]

ahh i love my TN and i wish i used the standard olive one more, so hopefully i can squeeze that back in :) thanks for the comment@

[@JellytheOT]

Hi Cami, thanks for another wonderful video! I love to hear you talk about your layouts, I think your commentary is what makes your channel so special. P.S. I adore those rose stickers as well!

[@camiscottage]

Thank you for your sweet comment. I definitely will be chatting it up more, I felt like it was the right video to try it out and I couldn't keep from talking anyway hehe. Oh I'm definitely going to order more of these stickers, they're SO pretty!

[@heidilucero8634]

I just got one of these travelers notebooks/journals today, my bf bought it for me, and mine is a shimmery gold color, im in love with it, and you inspired me to do my first spread in it! Thank you hon, I hope you, your son, and your husband are sfae, well rested, and healthy! -heidi lucero

[@camiscottage]

Thank you that’s so sweet! I prefer the talking as well so you can expect it in the upcoming videos 😬

[@stephaniee.mathieu1132]

Love it ❤️. Mor talking for me. Remember Shein sale stationary, you can find a log of things there, vintage paper, stamps , stickers.

Hello, I will just see the videos that I need, I could not see them the same day of publication. I really like the sensations when listening to sounds, no matter how minimal they are. I would like more videos like this. And I think it's okay for you to speak, so we can know what you do or why you do it. Thank you for giving us your time and encouragement on your weekend. María.

[@camiscottage]

Thank you for your comment! I’ll be keeping the talking on these videos and release a second version with just the sounds only. I think this is a good balance. Hope that helps you! Have a great day 💕

I agree with talking more! You have an amazing voice and you produce quality videos! :)

[@camiscottage]

Aw, thank you! That's what everyone is saying so I'll definitely be chatting it up more in the next video. I appreciate the kind compliment

[@hayrjohns]

When it comes to journal with me videos I am not as interested in the reasoning behind the journal spread. I watch for the process and the final outcome. But I admire you for having the courage to put your voice on the internet.

[@camiscottage]

You hit the nail on the head. That is EXACTLY why I wanted to test out the ASMR on this video. If I were going to do another JWM with narration, it would most likely be about the topic in journaling (the prompt or journal entry) as opposed to the reasoning. Would that be more interesting? Would love to know your thoughts! Thanks so much!

[@hayrjohns]

@@camiscottage I think I'd like a video that had commentary if it were about something I could relate to or start a conversation about. Personally, I like to talk about psychology and philosophy with my friends. I'm not suggesting that you change what you write about to fit my preferences. I am just curious as to what would happen in the comments if you talked about things in a grander, more general sense. For example, If I filmed a journal spread about how I got frustrated with my hair one day, I may not want to discuss the specific details of this event. Not everyone has my hair or bad hair days so it might be boring to them. Instead I may want to talk about frustration itself and how it effects me, my day, or the people around me. That is the sort of thing I'd like to listen to. This is all my opinion of course.

[@camiscottage]

@@hayrjohns haha I think I just wrote an answer to another comment saying if I was going to have a voice over in my journal with me’s, it would be less about the journaling and more about the entry. Just like your example. I mainly journal to a) memory keep and b) reflect. So most of my entries start off with what happened that day and then goes into a more philosophical approach. I’m also low-key wanting to start dishing out some journal prompts at the end of the video so I can see what you guys end up with too! 🥰 I’m so glad you wrote this bc it really builds confidence in my intuition. Thank you 😍

[@jenniferhall7183]

This was incredibly soothing to watch, enjoying your style. I would love to know what KZbin channels in the stationary realm you enjoy.

[@camiscottage]

Thank you very much! I really enjoy sarica studio channel, she’s an inspiration to me. Also a new mom and runs her own business. Minnie small is an artist that I sub go on patreon although she doesn’t do too much stationery I love her work as well. And a good friend of mine spellbound notes does planners and folios! She’s so adorable 🥰 there’s also seaweed kisses who does a lot of TN stuff. And a personal fav Chris Saenz a lovely lady who talks fountain pens and inks. Her personality is so charming. Then there’s shayda Campbell a fellow floral lover. And Jenny journals, I’m sure you’ve heard of her. There’s probably more but those are the ones I can think of ! Haha

[@taniamello4315]

Cami, of course this is just my opinion, but I think that if you had used a little less collage on the cover, it might have been more beautiful. But the result is really fine. 🥰😘🦋

[@camiscottage]

Hahaha, I was just thinking that. We've definitely got the same eye. I'm still learning when to use restraint, but it was a lot better than I thought it would come out so I'm happy. Thank you very much for your comment :)

[@estherquintana9534]

It's your TN insert so if you want to go overboard have at it!

[@camiscottage]

Bahaha, I love this! I do want to go overboard but I don't like how I feel about it afterwards. I'm hoping I can find a nice middle ground :P but thank you for being so supportive ^-^

[@nattr6102]

It turned out so cute! Btw where did you get the circular newspaper stickers and the rectangular newspaper sticker you used in the first official journal page (the one where you actually start journaling)?

[@camiscottage]

Thank you! I got it off of Ali Express but you can do a search on Etsy for “vintage pocket tapes” and I’m sure you can find some. Just in case you don’t want to wait 3-4 weeks 😆

[@maddiemcshinee]

Ooh I really like the asmr sounds! I wonder if you could make two versions of the same video, one with talking and one without? 🤔

[@camiscottage]

That's what I'm thinking of doing! My next Journal With Me is coming up soon so I'll be trying that. I figured since I'm already making the video, I can just remove the voice over and keep the music. Fingers crossed it's that easy, haha. Thanks for your feedback!

[@spacehoppity3127]

This comment may never be seen, but I found your channel by specifically looking for an arms traveler's notebook setup. I think there's no harm in offering up two versions of your setup videos, one with a VoiceOver and one without. Try not to overthink it. :)

[@camiscottage]

So sorry for the late reply. But your comment is definitely seen and appreciated. You’re so right about not overthinking it! It can’t hurt to have the two versions 🙏🏼 thank you so much for your feedback.

[@pauladeviveiros1448]

I’ve never ordered from AliExpress before. The prices look super low! Do a lot of people order from there for their stationary? 😲

[@camiscottage]

The prices may be low, but the shipping is what gets you, unless you live close to China. That's why I had to wait for a huge sale (black friday) and also buy everything all at once, from as few shops possible. It was hard to find shops that had everything I was looking for. I'm not sure if a lot of people order their stationery from there, but I have seen the same stuff on AliExpress on Etsy stationery stores, so I'm assuming they buy wholesale from Ali and sell it in their shops. The only reason why I bought from Ali this time is because I was finding the same things on there in the Etsy shops, so it was a very specific reason. I suggest browsing the shops and if you can find a lot of items from one store, go ahead and make the purchase if similar items are more expensive elsewhere. Thanks for your comment and your question :)!
