Traveler's Notebook Journal with Me Slow and (Somewhat) Chatty

Hi Mits! It’s been a moment since I’ve commented, but have been watching. Hope you and your family are well!

So happy your video popped up just as I was sitting down to do my own random journaling. Talk about perfect timing! I have 3 things I love do do in my alone time: 1) Swimming 2) Cooking and 3) Journaling about my swimming and cooking

Such a joy to listen to you and watch you 'play'. So cool you still use the folder I made you! Miss you❤

I’m slowly coming back to journaling again, as I had to back away from FOMO. I am finally content in what I have and using what I have stored for so long. The quote about doubt and failure you mentioned really spoke to me and so I wrote it in my ‘Random musings’ passport insert, so I could reflect on it more. I do love using the pockets that come with the sticker kit, even if I don’t put anything in it. As always, thank you for sharing and holding space for those that need another to journal with 😊💜

Hi mitts!!!

How about the poem line from Lord Byron 1814 “She walk with beauty like the night “
🌜✨💕

Decided to journal with you and then spent most of the time watching your video 🤣

Lovely journaling time. It’s so amazing how you can write that quote, just winging it and it looks great! 😍 impressive!

Hi Mits I wanted to appreciate this whole video (as always) but especially the light gentle music whilst you were journaling so that I could still hear the scratching of your pen on the paper - which is also music to my ears.

It was lovely that you got to supervision the children’s’ play time at a time when you could also collect Sakura flowers. I pressed my first flowers in February, from my friend’s garden and they were also the first Sakura blooms from the little tree. I also picked them off the ground.

I really liked your story about not shaking trees. I have alway felt a connection to trees, appreciating how they shelter me from too much sunlight/harmful UV rays and providing good clean oxygen to breathe. I had a favourite tree I visited in my lunch break when I worked at Regent’s Park in London and always felts a sense of peace and able to switch off from a crazy day for a moment when I was there. I would great the tree as a friend with my hand on its trunks (like a handshake) when I arrive and another to say thanks and farewell when I left. It was a horrible place to work but tree always made the day better when I had a chance to get to it. I guess it was a sort of meditation and therapy for me (sometimes I wondered if people thought me mad, if they could see), I would talk to the tree asking how it was and how it’s day was going and telling it about mine. They were private ground behind the private college and the main park and noisy main road were just on the other side of a fence.

On a separate note, in case it is of interest to you, I alway put the band a page before or after the staples so they do not cut or wear away at the rubber.

A favourite quote I heard on a Korean drama (Marry my Husband)… failure is the mother of success. - reminds me to keep going when I am struggling because I will get there. I’ve been saving my quotes on my Google calendar as I can’t decide which book to put them in and I also really want an onion skin journal but haven’t found one that ships to U.K. I will have to get the paper and make my own!! Varsha 😂🙏🏽🫶🏽🖋🫖🍵

Hey MIT's
Love the quotes notebook. Where can I get them from?

I love your journaling videos ❤ About the photo printer: if its zinc paper, it's a thermal print so it tends to not last as long as regular prints...on my experience they get blurry with time (I do live in a country where there is a lot of heat and humidity).
Those portable printers where the paper comes with a small ink cartridge have prints that last longer.

I really wish the pockets worked better in the customised sticker sets! I’ve had 4 years worth and not one of them has stuck properly!! I’m glad you got one to work!

So love your journal videos and love how use different methods for each page❤❤❤❤ thank you for your video and your voice is so niceeeeee

My 96 year old grandfather had beautiful handwriting even at his age. So a couple of years ago, I asked him to write me something. He was so sweet and wrote me 2 notebooks worth of 'quote for the day" that he had collected and remembered in his years. I'm so grateful I have it in his memory.. ❤

My favourite quote is festinatio tarda est. Or may be it's like a motto to me. Reminds me I don't have to rush when doing anything. When I go slow and thoughtfully about the things I do then I do them better and don't have to make corrections or even start over! Love your journal with me videos so much! 🌸

‏It was extremely creative🤭👏

The composition of your pages is so beautiful!! I really enjoy experimenting Japan with you 🌸

You are so inspired love see your vidios

I'm journaling in my own journal while I watch your video 😊

I really liked this format where you chat with us first, then go into journaling in silence. 😊

Lovely! Thank you for sharing!

Time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time - Bertrand Russell. I like that one a lot!

“Oh body, be glad. You’re good goods.” -Anne Sexton, this is line of poetry was introduced to me by a very good friend of mine and just love this so much!

I need to start a quote journal. I often right down quotes that you share with us but then I cant find them or I forget what they were when I go to use them in my planner/journal . I need to get better organized with my stationary ideas and supplies. I dont have alot of space and Im getting less an d less organized. Thank you for this video . I really enjoyed spending this time with you .

What book did you use for those quotes? I love the sound of the paper 😊

Thanks for the reminder about the stickers and clear pockets that I have for my travelers notebook :)

I am feeling so inspired to go create now, thank you for the relaxing time as I sip my coffee and get ready for the day!

Your printables are lovely; are they via your Kofi like they used to be? Or somewhere else? ❤❤
