My Hobonichi Cousin setup - April 2017

Join me for a walkthrough of my new Spring Cousin work planner! I've only been using it for a week, but there's already a lot to show :)

Excellent review. Thank you for presenting the planner and not the decorations.

i realize Im quite off topic but does anyone know a good place to watch new series online?

[@khalidgregory6043]

@Kayson Malakai flixportal :P

[@kaysonmalakai3711]

@Khalid Gregory thank you, I went there and it seems like a nice service :) I really appreciate it !!

[@khalidgregory6043]

@Kayson Malakai happy to help :D

I watch a lot of planning videos but I have to say yours are definitely the best. They are so detailed and informative and give me so many ideas. I have just ordered a hobonichi cousin because you have inspired me! Although decorating planners looks lovely I know I would spend too much time doing that - so I really enjoy your practical use of planning. Keep up the fantastic work!

Marie Smith Thank you so much for the very kind words - you've really made my day!! I hope you enjoy your Cousin 😄

[@ckhartzler2437]

My favorite Hobonichi vide. I don't have one, but would like to try it.

[@VeganOrganizer]

Thank you so much! I'm really happy to hear that. I definitely recommend the Hobonichi, lol! :)

[@sassypineapple]

Yay! I'm so happy for you - a new planner is such a joy. This is functional planning at its best! 😍

[@VeganOrganizer]

Awww, thank you so much!!! That means a lot :))

[@atanasiamandru8188]

I've just started my very first Hobonichi Techo A5 and I'm soooo excited! Also, I'm a bit worried of messing it up from the start (haha!). I love the way you set up yours and I think using the mechanical pencil (at least until you get the hang of it) is a very good idea. This video is a great inspiration for me, because I'm not an artsy person and I use my planner for planning and lists only. Please do follow-up videos with any other tweaks you incorporate! Have a great week!

[@VeganOrganizer]

Yay, I'm so excited for you starting your first Cousin! I hope you love it just like I love mine. I'm so happy you enjoyed the video. It always surprises me that there aren't more of us using the Hobo strictly for planning! I'll definitely do follow-up videos as the year goes on :)

[@richardlees5303]

well thought out and well presented overview. Thanks.

[@richardlees5303]

I missed hearing your pen choice which is important for the paper. With my hearing shot it's hard to hear things people say quickly because it's old news to them but not the viewer. Thanks

[@rowena8752]

Loved this video particularly because I have an A5 Cousin Avec! Great to hear how you utilize it for work!

[@VeganOrganizer]

Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it :)

[@sandrameander69]

That cover looks great! Always love seeing how you use your Cousin!

[@VeganOrganizer]

Thanks so much! The cover is the best ever :))

[@samitheus6636]

Vegan Organizer where did you get your cover?

[@jennymcevoy8961]

glad to see you back!!!

[@VeganOrganizer]

Aww, thank you so much!! I've really missed filming - I was hoping to make a video last weekend, but I was just so worn out from work that I didn't manage to do it. I'm hoping that now the intensive period is over I'll have a bit more time for videos! :)

[@lalizilla]

that index idea in the vertical monthly page is genius, wow! thanks for sharing. so valuable

[@VeganOrganizer]

lali Really happy you found it useful! Thanks for the kind words. I can't remember where I first saw it, but I'm very grateful to them for the idea!

[@tiffanyliu9841]

This looks so awesome but I'm invested in the midori traveler's notebook system. I still watch your channel to get my curiosity satisfied about the hobonichis though!

[@VeganOrganizer]

redpanda girlie Thanks so much for the comment - I know what you mean; I love watching videos about TNs and other planning systems to get my fix too 😄

[@xochitllee24]

are you a college professor? Just wondering because you said "students" and "university" so I just assumed, which is awesome! and I have questions for you about that!

[@VeganOrganizer]

Becca Lee Yes, I am! 😃

[@daxapanchal9959]

Hey, thank you for sharing. Could you link the notebook you use that you have for password, year to year stuff please. Look perfect! Many thanks in advance

[@VeganOrganizer]

It's an address book that came with an A5 Leuchtturm planner I bought a couple of years ago. As far as I know they can't be bought separately, but they come as standard with the planners.

[@daxapanchal9959]

Thank you. I thought you said it came as a set, and sometimes they it separately too.

[@cyndyecharrell2654]

What blue tabs are you using?

[@VeganOrganizer]

They're from the Hobonichi shop! Here they are: www.1101.com/store/techo/pc/en/2017/detail_toolstoys/s_landscape.html
