Jan 23 54/365

Travel journal ideas (from Writing Away by Lavinia Spalding):

write out your itinerary

do columns each with date/destination/discovery

list adjectives to describe the journal and journey

first impressions

explain surroundings as if it's for the first time

to make blank spaces, trace things and leave open for your words

take a scavenger hunt, look for "trash"

cut up a map and add to journal

notice something you normally wouldn't

write all the details

write the unexpected

best and worst list

write a poem

what seems "off" or "ugly"

harvest words from everywhere
