    What a lovely set up, including the monthly highlights. I think this is one of the nicest ways I've seen the traveller's journal used.

      @@aleshortforalejandra Thanks for replying!! It's all very helpful, thank you! What you said about just throwing the insert and getting a new one is so true! I remember a long time ago I got a big notebook to try bullet journaling and was so sad not getting it right for the first time and eventually gave up. But I folded and got a budget-friendly TN and currently trying it out!! It's super exciting to personalize and make it my own but to be honest I'm scared of trying anything out and ruining it ): Is that something you ever struggled with, wanting it to be perfect from the very first page? I'm very new to journaling/writing as a whole
