Mini Scrapbook

The thick cloth paper and robust binding makes this ideal for a mini scrapbook: by pasting in bus tikets, foreign product labels, postage stamps, pressed flowers, business cards and other such items from your trip, it will encase mementos that will bring a smile in years to come. These are tangible keepsakes, unlike anything recorded on an ipad, laptop etc..

Preserve your travel memories in a precious binding

Most people do not keep diaries whilst overseas, or if they start doing so, they abandon them after a week or two. The problem for most, is they try to produce something in a worthy literary style as if it were for others to read, the effort of writing about standing on the summits of high hills, or resting on the banks of grand rivers, and eloquently explaining every exotic scene, soon becomes a chore. The novelty fades and the diary often dies a sudden death. A diary is simply a tool to recall your trip in years to come. If ultimately you want to post it on the internet or find a publisher for your musings, your original diary need only be a bare skeleton for your ideas, and a useful memory jogger – not the finished product. A one or two hundred word daily entry is fine. In years to come your brief prose will dredge up a wealth of half-forgotten memories from your subconscious. You'll be glad you took the trouble. Even the pages are special: being made from recycled cloth fibre instead of wood fibre, not only is this more environmentally friendly, but it makes them stronger. You will be delighted with this exquisitely made book.
