Ahmedabad: There are many benefits of maintaining a journal. From acting as a stress-coping mechanism, to helping with physical and mental health, a journal is an affordable way of keeping mental health in check.
A travel journal includes a chronological list of places one wishes to visit and the activities one aims to participate in while on vacation. It saves time and ensures one gets the most out of the trip. One can even research unusual and hidden places to visit!
Here are a few reasons a traveller should carry a journal
Capturing Moments
Take pictures during the trip. Try channelising the professional cameraperson and explore the city. Photo memories will help remember major and minor experiences during the trip.
Information Essentials
Travel information is a necessary evil, especially if one is venturing to different destinations. One can organise and keep travel-related information like timetables, flights, accommodation, and important contacts in a compact travel journal. A journal becomes handy when searching for important information.
Others may benefit from your referrals
Another perk of maintaining a trip journal is that it can be used to assist others. Whether it is expenses or experiences, one’s journal can provide ample information on the dos and don’ts and other essentials. It can also prove beneficial since it gives a wide range of details and ideas. A person can share their journal to be referred to by friends or family.
