My favourite Travellers Notebook – Cori

Today we start the first in this new series with Cori from ‘talesfromapolkcountygirl.com‘

Q1. What is your favourite Travellers Notebook cover (Make/model/size)?

My favorite TN cover is my Foxy Fix Marina Le Petite #5, the B6 size.

Q2. How long have you owned it?

Since July 2016, but I was participating in #onebookJuly2016, so I didn’t actually set it up or anything until August. But I’ve been using it ever since.

Q3. What is it that you like about it so much?

The B6 size, 7″ x 5″, is the perfect size for me for multiple reasons. My local stores always have notebooks in this size and they’re pretty cheap. I love that I don’t have to rely on ordering online and WAITING (I hate waiting) for the inserts to show up.

Q4. Do you use it all the time?

Yes, it is my EDC. I have my blogging insert, a dashboard, a folder, my monthly/weekly combo insert, my daily/journaling insert, and a brain dump book in the back.

Q5. Do you think the design could be improved in any way? How?

Design improvements depend on the designer. I wish there was more flexibility in terms of choosing pockets for the TNs. I don’t care for the card slot style pockets in the front of the TN. I would prefer secretarial pockets in the front and the back.

Open Discussion – 21 November 2016

I received a request to start a once a week open discussion post like Free For All Friday over on Philofaxy.

So this post will be a regular feature hopefully every Monday here on Travellers Notebook Times where you will be free to discuss anything relevant, ask questions, ask for opinions and share other information as well.

Relevant is anything covering Ttravellers notebook, bound planners, Hobonichi planners, notebooks etc etc… But obviously excluding ring bound planners, disc bound planners which are more at home on Philofaxy.

I hope to keep it simple and civilised.

Enjoy.
