Record your travel experiences the old-fashioned way

Tired of blogging your personal thoughts for the rest of the world to see? After all, not everything in your head is meant for public consumption.

Travel JournalingMaybe it's time to journal your travel thoughts, the way you did way back when. Don't get your knickers in a knot. We're not suggesting a pink butterfly diary with a lock that you tuck between mattresses for safe keeping.

The new generation of journals are sleek, hip and built to stand up to the trials of travel. We admit, they don't come with a lock and a key, but unless you're still worried about your brother spilling your secrets you should be fine.

Scully Equestrian Pocket Journal: Just the right size and bound in a beautiful leather cover that looks better the more trips you take. And it comes with a "Simple as That" lifetime warranty. Nice. $37.99USD

Leelanau Trading Co. Leather Ring Binder Extra Large Journal: Face it, sometimes you want a big journal that feels as good to write in as what you write. It's leather bound and has a 3-ring binder so adding pages is a snap. We love it because it's actually large enough for detailed sketches and maps. $52USD.

Nomad Hiking Journal w/case: Made for the adventure traveler, this journal comes with a case and detailed pages for quick entries. Tick lists, currency exchanges and recommendations for guide books are great but we especially love the waterproof case. $27USD.
