20 Things That Need To Be In Your Travel Journal

We’ve all seen those Insta-worthy, “oh-my-god how could any travel journal be so pretty,” and secretly prayed to the Pinterest gods that one day we may be able to create something as beautiful. Eventually, I faced my fears and created my own and here’s what I added!

1. Plane Tickets.

2. Polaroid Pictures.

Grab your Fujifilm camera and take those artsy pics!

3. Event Ticket Stubs.

Map where you’ve been so you have a cute visual of your journey!

Print off mini “Starry Night” paintings to remember all the beautiful work you’ve seen.
