Creating a Travel Journal

Blank books can be intimidating until you fill the first page. Here is a list of prompts for creating a travel journal.

We carry a variety of handmade blank books in our brick and mortar store. It can be intimidating to look at a blank page and decide what to fill it with. One of my favorite uses is a travel journal. However, I've never been a diary sort so instead we have put together prompts that you can use for your own travel journal. Most of these can be answered with either sketches or writing.

  1. Describe the most breathtaking natural wonder you've encountered during your travels.

  2. What's the most exotic cuisine you've tried while traveling, and what did you think of it?
