Each week we ask our readers a simple question about their Travellers Notebooks and how they use them.
So this weeks question:
How many booklets/notebooks do you carry in your travellers notebook?
Please answer in the comments below, although I know a few of you will answer my question on Facebook.
Three.Weekly (in which I have the rest of the year along with 2017 pages, “collections” which means some necessary medical etc. information that needs be available 24/7), daily (2 pages/day. I change this monthly) and a notebook. I have very small stack of post-it notes glued to the cover of a notebook and when the notebooks is changed, I slap another set of post-its to the new covers. Very simple, very minimal.
I overstuffed my passport ZYLC with 6 notebook: calendar/annual leave/overtime/CEU logs, weekly, daily notes, extensions/pager numbers, collections of specific procedure and preference notes.
My Midori Traveler’s notebook has a calendar, Bullet Journal and a reflection journal.
Well, currently in my Passport I have a booklet with encoded personal information, a spare notebook, and a current daily notebook. This current one tends to live outside of the elastic fastener and it is in regular use throughout the day. Come the new year I shall also have a weekly diary, as I’ve decided I like having a written record of my year. Additionally, there is a zippered pocket and a kraft file.
In my field notes size I have 2, my general one has 3, travel has 3, and projects has 4!
5 inserts. Monthly, daily, Christmas insert (it’s never too early!) a journal and a commonplace book
#019, #005 and a #002. Organization with space to journal.
3 paper inserts plus a zipped pocket insert: 2016 week plus notes diary; 2017 week plus notes diary (both made by me); notebook.
Zipped pocket insert has money in; TN has card slots in the covers. It’s wallet+diary+notebook all in one!
Currently 2, just changed jobs so I use one for new work notes. The other is for Christmas planning. I use this system alongside a ringed planner.
4 notebooks. 2 lined mini composition notebooks, calendar for 3 months(has monthly and weekly with habit trackers) and a water color insert i make myself. i use a b6 size tn.
Five books- grid (to do’s/lists), diary, lined (writing journal), plain (poetry) and kraft paper (art journal) plus a kraft folder and a zip pocket.
1-2
In my TN (passport and regular), I have a fourruof for money and papers, and two notebooks(013 and 003) for travels.
