In the mean time I've had the best time piecing together my travel journal. In the end it turned out as more of a mini book filled to the brim with photos and oh yeah, there's some journaling in there too. But since Imre and I both love to take photos, that kinda was to be expected. My book got super thick, and I love every single page.
Here are some of my favourites:
I tried to keep the book chronological, because all of my journaling is. It consists of three parts, and each part has its own colours: the week with Imres family (yellow/green), the week with just the two of us (red/pink) and the week in Taizé (light and dark blue). The different parts are divided by a smaller, square page that has a little washi tag, and says either "with all of us", "with the two of us" or "with a lot of people".
I took pictures each morning I went for a run. Afterwards I wrote a few words about each run, and later accompanied it by a pictured of my feet. So in total I have 6 pages dedicated to my runs.
I used a few designs that keep recurring throughout the book: two vertical 4x6 photos back to back, four horizontal 4x6 photos back to back, and of course I used a lot of stuff I collected on the trip. I used very little embellishments because the book is already so full, but I did fancy things up with some washi tape and a set of stamps. I decided not to stamp on top of the pictures because the cheap ink I have will take days (literally) to dry on pictures. Maybe it's time to invest in some StazOn ink...
I love how my travel journal turned out. It's so thick, full of awesome memories. I showed it to Imres family last week, and it was so much fun to see them flick through it and laugh together over the memories it contains.
