TRAVEL JOURNAL NOTEBOOK FREE
This book is no more of a luxury than all my fancy pens, right?ĭISCLAIMER: The items included in this review were provided free of charge by Lett’s of London for the purpose of review. Having a small notebook to keep track of what hotels I stay in, which restaurants I like and don’t like, what various adventures (both good and bad) occur on a given trip might be nice to document. But the more I played with it, the more I realized, I’m someone who travels a lot. When I first got it, it seemed like something for someone much fancier than myself. The more I tested this little notebook, the more I started to appreciate it. Wet liquid-y inks are going to show and bleed through. As a result, ballpoint pens, gel pens and pencils are really the best option with this book. But I am not old world money, so what do I know?Īs I mentioned earlier, the paper in the notebook is quite thin, in order to make this notebook small and pocketable.

The one city included that I am most familiar with is Chicago and even if the criteria was poshest hotels, I’m not sure the hotel they chose were the ones I would have picked. I have no idea how the hotels were selected. There is also some top level city information for major cities across the world that includes time zones, airports and a few hotels. Towards the back of the book is a section for planning out your year and listing favorite restaurants. These pages make up the majority of the book. The pages are numbered and feature a spot at the top for date and location. The book starts with a set of contents pages and then moves to several pages for specifc locales. Inside the book are lightweight 45gsm, soft ivory pages that have been printed with all sorts of sections related to travel. I think it would better suit the whole set-up. I really want to replace it with a fine refill. It comes with a medium point refill which seems a bit chunky for the delicacy of the notebook and the pen itself. It’s a slender ballpoint pen which is not always my tool of choice but the fact that it fits perfectly, and invisibly down the spine means that you always have a pen with the book, even if it’s not your favorite. This book feels very posh.ĭown the spine is a thin, gold fluted pen, hidden in the seam of the spine. The Lett’s Travel notebook has a lovely satin ribbon bookmark and gold metallic edge painted pages. The cover is a textured leather with embossed logo, centered on the cover. The whole book is closer to 3.5″ across, when measured from the spine. The Lett’s Travel Journal (£20, soon to be released in US) is a petite, pocketable notebook that feels both elegant and personal.
