unboxing my first traveler’s notebook | Traveler's Company 2025 Love & Trip Items

[@tortagialla]

Super cute! I love the passport size because it’s so handy and you can easily fill a page but also can keep going onto many pages. I find it less intimidating than larger notebooks!

[@TheRALifestyle]

Thank you! ☺ I am really finding I enjoy small notebooks so I look forward to filling it out!

Hey 👋🏼 there. No leather tag. Make sure you reach out to them they WILL send you a tag! ☺️ nice haul. I also went with travelers passport for my EDC 2025. I bought mine in olive. I’m sad about my color 😭 I junk journal too. I bought from 6 places for my TN and I’m waiting on all of it to arrive so that I can share my haul other than my unboxing that I did. Your camel is nice. That’s on my wishlist for 2025.

[@TheRALifestyle]

@@MamaGraciePlans Thanks! I reached out and was happy when they replied stating they would mail me the leather tag so just waiting now 😊 Can’t wait to see your haul! And sorry to hear your disappointment with the olive color. I’ve seen that it tends to look more of a light brown. I had my eye on the blue one too but was worried it would look black. Hopefully you get the camel and it brings you joy!

It was suggested to me to use the bookmark for the folder. Theres a tiny opening on the bottom left so it’s more secure. I was recently diagnosed with an autoimmune and your channel is very helpful with health journal ideas. Thank you! 🖤

[@TheRALifestyle]

@@kimmcee wow that is cool I did not know that! Thank you for sharing that tip! 😊 so happy to hear health journal ideas have been helpful. Wishing you all the best in your autoimmune health journey!

Hey new here. I recently purchased a pocket TN too. Just waiting on it to arrive. Loved your video 🤍

[@TheRALifestyle]

@@planningwithboys Nice how exciting! I hope you enjoy it! I can’t wait to start using mine 😄 Thanks for your support and watching! 😊

I just got my first standered tn today as well. I got one from wanderings in the oak color. It’s real leather and comes with 3 inserts and I also bought some inserts and buying more tosua

[@TheRALifestyle]

@@The_Planner_Diva Nice! So exciting and happy for your first standard TN! Which inserts are you getting?

[@jackiemartinez7260]

After using ring planners for years I was intrigued by the TN’s after the first video I watched. H began using TN’s in 2015 and I still love them. I am currently using Erin Condren’s Petite Planner (like lg TN’s) system and enjoying that.

[@TheRALifestyle]

Oooh nice! I didn't even know Erin Condren had a Petite Planner - now I am intrigued 😄

[@ghostyplans]

So cute! My first TN was the camel narrow. Make sure you keep the elastic on the cardboard to use as a jump band too! ❤

[@TheRALifestyle]

Thank you for the tip! ☺I realized later I probably didn't need the extra rubber bands but I also can always add more inserts! 😂

Have you heard of Meghan Rhiannon? (I think I’ve spelt her name right but not 100%) - she has a channel and commonplaces and has used hobonichi and the traveler’s company and I’d recommend her channel. Also pomme palette - I’m not sure if she has a specific video on it but they’re both good shouts I think. I love your haul! I really want a passport one. I have a regular size one and love that but there is something so adorable about the size you have! Also I love the accordion folders, idky 🙈 i like using them for so many random things instead of for specific trips! Anyhoo thanks for sharing ☺️ I also think it’s really cool that you’re a psychologist! It’s such a valuable job - I hope you have someone you can talk to as well 💜 have a lovely rest of your week ✨

[@TheRALifestyle]

Thank you so much for the suggestions! I will definitely check those out! You are so sweet to check in on whether I talk to someone ☺I work in a group practice with wonderful & supportive colleagues though I have thought of returning to my own individual therapy (have been in the past when first diagnosed with RA). I hope you have a lovely rest of your week as well!

[@amidst_the_grey]

Contact them about the tag. They are very responsive.

[@TheRALifestyle]

Thanks! I reached out to them and thankfully they are mailing one to me.

[@amidst_the_grey]

@TheRALifestyle That's great to hear! One year I didn't get a Traveler's Times with my order. I emailed them and had one within two days.

[@TheRALifestyle]

@ that’s great and good to know! I wasn’t sure since it was my first time ordering but good to know!

[@litzam.gonzalez]

You have to use your own rubber band. Band the books back cover to back cover and then add it to the traveler’s notebook.

[@TheRALifestyle]

Thank you! ☺I was struggling a bit 😅

[@litzam.gonzalez]

@ No problem!
