My travel journal | hellokaty

A glimpse of what was going on inside my head while I was traveling throughout Europe for four and a half months.
I'm currently battling a cold, so that is why my voice sounds so strange. fml.

"I'm no artist" *opens journal to some of the coolest sketches i've ever seen*

[@toobydude41]

completely agree. absolutely breathtaking

[@Aliaahmedd]

Nora Kifarkis Exactly what i thought!!

[@naanajb]

my thoughts exactly

[@victoriaho-yen1295]

Nora Kifarkis yeah it's sad that she felt like she had to "disclaim" the artist title, maybe because of the fear of being projected as believing-shes-something-shes-not kind of thing. I wish I could encourage her to be bold and claim that title, because an artist is anyone who creates something from their heart. But it's not her fault, it's societys fault for making people think they cant claim their own title because of the norm of humility.

[@toobydude41]

Well said Victoria

[@rebceb333]

I have never commented on a video before and this is the most fucking beautiful thing I've ever seen. It's amazing

[@jeanneguillemette6527]

i couldn't help but imagine your future kids and grand-kids finding this old book of all your traveling and get inspired by all those memories.

[@sbjade9812]

yess

[@eriwi]

i feel like you will be the editor of a magazine some day

[@Veronica_Paulina]

omg wait but actually that would be amazing

[@amandaclaire6820]

Erica Whitehead I remember she was (not sure if she still is) the fashion editor of the magazine at her university

[@wuv123ful]

does anyone know what her major is?

[@amandachin6853]

I believe she's a Communications major

[@wuv123ful]

no way! thats exactly what I'm majoring in next year! I'm really similar to Katy, as we're both really creative, so I was asking bc whatever she's doing would probably suit me as well! I guess I was right, since thats what I've already chosen lol!

[@racheladelaide4295]

can this be made into a book that i can buy😍😍

[@natim1546]

Rachel Adelaide i would so buy it 😁

[@alexaann7344]

I have honestly never been more excited about anything

[@Veronica_Paulina]

SAME!!!

[@lorip4706]

Alexa Foley I was like three hundred on your post! BTW so true!

[@marisalafalce871]

You really need to make this into a book & publish it. Like one that I can buy at Barnes and Noble, or anywhere, really. I'd buy it in a heartbeat, and so would others because it is truly a piece of art thats filled with inspiration and life advice that would help so many people. PLEASE!!! I would stare at the drawings and read the quotes every day...

[@orangepeel_er]

Marisa LaFalce oh my god this is an amazing idea. would totally buy this book

[@summerdenson2769]

The beauty of this made me want to cry. Immediately afterwards, I sat at my desk with my burgundy leather bound journal and expressed my self, fully. I doodled and sketched and painted the world inside my mind. I copied down the words of my poetry and matched them with these expressions. I emptied my world of stress and striving and spent a solid two hours feeding my soul. So thank you. Thank you.

[@Disneyflamingo]

this vid was so satisfying and honestly just inspiring

[@hydiahs9959]

I need to journal more when I travel! This is lovely!

[@invisiblekatie]

I never comment, but this is completely gorgeous and such a fantastic idea. I literally just went to a stationary store and bought a notebook like this for my trip to the USA in a few months, completely inspired by this video. I've known you are a beautiful writer from your posts in various social media, but I never knew you were also a beautiful drawer. You'll look back on this precious journal very fondly when you're older no doubt, Katy. :) I also really resonated with what you said about other people's success affecting you - making it easier to feel like a failure. But I've learnt that life isn't a race; instead of constantly comparing myself to others, I'm trying to enjoy this place and time I'm in right now. Anyway, I love your videos, blog posts, instagrams etc! God bless, Katy! Love Katie from NZ xx

[@alina34]

invisiblekatie me too haha literally on my way to buy one

[@helenasteacy4267]

Katy, this video made me realise that you have an air about you that's similar to that of a wondrous child. You never loose your curiosity and your inspiration and drive inspires so many who watch you, including me. You make me want to find that wonder and curiosity again and experience it in my everyday, and to notice it when it arises. Never, ever lose that part of you Katy. Its beautiful, you're beautiful.

[@SMILEZKOOL]

this has EASILY become my favorite video in the entire world.

[@sophiehelldorfer1618]

Any person who can make me laugh and cry simultaneously in a 13min span I know plays a genuine role in my life. Katy, you never fail to do both every video and even though I've obviously never had the pleasure of meeting you, you have become a necessary part of my life. It's these creative, beautiful, and intellectually curious videos that can be called pieces of art that KZbin needs more of! Stay genuine and true to your heart and you'll always get a like and a view from me. Love you so very much! With great admiration, Sophie

[@jizellemeetsworld]

this deserves to be in an art museum

[@kath8728]

The color schemes for your sketches is beautiful! It's the first thing I noticed!

[@josefinademialma]

Katy I just want to say how blessed you are to be able to travel so often while being so young, I hope God continues to bless you abundantly ❤️ unfortunately I cannot study abroad because I work full time and I live alone and my office will not approve my time off. But I am living vicariously through your videos! Enjoy my love!

[@siric.d.1539]

KATY this was AWESOME!!!

[@meaghankehoe3233]

This journal needs to be made into a book and put into a museum. It is absolutely incredible. I had to pause on every page and just take it all in. Katy is my inspiration and she will never fail to impress me

[@Anna20009]

[@OliviaFrescura]

I could see the duomo from my window as well when I studied abroad. Mainly just the gold ball on top though. Florence was everything- would kill to go back and it's been 2 years. My journal was not nearly this beautiful, but it was filled with taped-in mementos and it is a priceless item that I will hold onto for ever. Love the positano paper- I loved positano.

[@katiecanning4495]

Loved this video, love your calligraphy and sketches!! really impressive

[@emaroto]

So artistic. I love this! Thanks for sharing♡

[@maryap8821]

this is so inspiring, katy. not only is the whole thing beautiful but it's the most amazing way to remember important parts of your life - through sketches you made and little texts you wrote while experiencing a place and through quotes that impacted you at a certain moment. i'm in awe, i'm going to buy a journal (hopefully that same one from tiger, i have a few close by ;)) and start something like this!

[@sarahstylesxoxo9026]

I loved this video!! Your journal is amazing❤❤

[@maribethallen5974]

wow! your travel journal is so full your personality and personal touches of your adventures while abroad! I'm currently working on updating some scrapbooks of mine and fell like I'm going through a similar process of collecting photos and moments throughout my life/times as who i am in this world love your videos!

[@rosesalie]

I don't believe that you are not an artist. Your travel journal like a work of art. If I have my own travel journal book like yours, I would look at it every day :D. Well done , girl!
