I love my daily travel journal because it makes me happy and fulfilled. The ability to capture every moment, my reactions, emotions, and opinions makes me value every moment that I spend going about my travel expeditions. While many of us may not deem a travel journal relevant, I can only say that you do not know what you are missing out on not keeping a daily travel journal. Here are five ways on how to prepare your daily travel journal;
Write on a regular basis
One of the best things about a daily travel journal is the fact that you have something to write about every day.
To begin with, you will be visiting a new place every day. If not, you will have a different experience from what you had the previous days. Note down the places, how you found them, what made you laugh, cry, what inspired you and so much more. Writing on a daily basis will make the journal more meaningful.
Note down your expectations
One of the reasons as to why you would be interested in visiting a place is because you have expectations that you hope the experience will meet. What are you looking forward to at the destination? What feelings do you expect to have? Do you expect to meet someone, see something, and stay there for a particular duration of time? Expectations are what drives our urge to want to experience a place.
Be truthful about your feedback
Your daily travel journal is meant to make your trip worthwhile. Constructive feedback is what you should focus on since you know the expectations that you had or have about the place. What are some of the things that you wish you or another person, or a service
provider would have done differently? What was most interesting about your day? What was unpleasant, and so much more. Feedback will always come in handy when recommending, writing a review or planning for a future trip.
Take photos and write about them
Sometimes the best moments in life are those captured in a photograph. This does not necessarily mean that you have to be poetic. The point is that photos will inspire you into describing the day, the events or occasion in a unique way. Moreover, looking at the photo will always trigger the beautiful memories.
Use your journal to plan for your next trip
Always pre-book your travel arrangements for stress-free travel experiences. Booking your airport transfers, cheap car hire, ferry crossings and airport hotel deals with Parking at Airports, for example, guarantees you discounts of up to 72% off: https://parking-at-airports.co.uk/
Noting the experience in your travel journal will have you booking early next time. Be sure to keep time. Another important aspect of planning is money. Have a reasonable budget that is meant to sustain your stay.
Write about people
You meet some of the best people in life during your travel experiences. Always note down what someone makes you feel. These are the moments that count the most.
