Keeping A Travel Journal

Keeping a travel journal can be a reminder in years to come of your travel adventures, and you can find online journals as well as actual notebooks. A good journal doesn’t just list what you saw and did; it describes how you felt, what your impressions were and often it’s the small details that make a travel account interesting. Descriptions of the people you met, a memorable meal, a unique experience or a museum or sight that was especially moving or interesting can all help bring your journal to life. You can also add to your journal by including plane tickets, copied pages from a passport, menus, and other printed materials. There are dozens of travel journals that become books or full time travel blogs and make the writer some money, although the point is really to keep a journal for the fun of it.
