Hey, welcome back to another journaling post! sorry for no update any digital planner and lately The screen protector on my iPad got scratched. So yeah I still checking for my screen protector. But today will be back to my Journaling Supplies.
I’m so excited because I’m finally getting back into journaling, and I really hope this hobby stays with me for a long time. Recently, I decided to treat myself to some new Traveler’s Notebooks (TNs) and stationery, and most of my order has finally arrived. I still have a few more packages on the way, and I honestly can’t wait to unbox those too!
Why I’m Starting to Journal Again
There was a time when journaling was one of my favourite hobbies. It gave me a quiet space to slow down, organise my thoughts, and remember the little moments that often get forgotten.
Somewhere along the way, I stopped writing. Work became busy, life moved quickly, and my notebooks slowly gathered dust on the shelf.
Recently, I realised how much I missed having a place to record my memories—not only my daily life but also my travels. Instead of leaving everything in my phone’s camera roll, I want somewhere that feels more personal. I want to write about the places I visit, keep tickets and postcards, collect little memories, and create something I can look back on years from now.
For me, journaling isn’t about making every page perfect. It’s about preserving moments that matter.
What did I buy?
Since I’m starting this journaling journey again, I may have gone a little overboard with my shopping… but no regrets!
I bought several Traveler’s Notebooks in different sizes, along with lots of stationery supplies such as colourful inks, pens, and other journaling accessories. Altogether, I ended up buying around 18 notebooks, which sounds a little crazy when I say it out loud!
For me, journaling isn’t just about writing down my daily life. I also want to create a travel journal to document every trip and adventure. I love the idea of recording the places I visit, the little moments I experience, and the memories I make along the way. Looking back on those pages one day will be something really special.
More than anything, I hope journaling helps me slow down and appreciate the little joys in everyday life again.
One of My Favourite Purchases
One thing I’m especially excited about is my new fountain pen and bottled ink.
This is actually my first time using bottled ink, so I honestly have no idea what I’m doing yet! I was simply drawn to how beautiful it looked and decided to buy my favourite ink colour along with a matching pen.
The only experience I have with ink pens was practising calligraphy back at school, so using a fountain pen now feels both exciting and a little intimidating. I’ll definitely need to spend some time learning how to fill the pen properly and use it well.
Maybe this will become another hobby that I fall in love with.
I’ve seen so many beautiful journaling pages and artwork created by other fountain pen users, and they’re incredibly inspiring. Some people even create amazing illustrations with them! I’ll probably be using mine mostly for writing, but who knows? Maybe one day I’ll even try adding a few sketches to my journal.
I’m really looking forward to this new chapter of my journaling journey, and I can’t wait to share it with you.
What I’m Most Excited About
More than anything, I’m excited to start documenting my travels again.
As someone who loves exploring new places, I often come home with hundreds of photos on my phone. They’re wonderful memories, but I rarely look back through them.
I want to write about each journey, keep boarding passes, tickets, maps, receipts, postcards, and little souvenirs alongside my stories. I think there’s something really special about holding those memories in your hands rather than only seeing them on a screen.
Hopefully, years from now, I’ll be able to flip through these journals and relive every adventure, one page at a time.
Final Thoughts
Opening all these parcels reminded me why I fell in love with stationery in the first place. There’s something so exciting about a fresh notebook, a beautiful pen, and the endless possibilities that come with a blank page.
This isn’t just about collecting stationery—it’s about slowing down, being more mindful, and creating a place where I can preserve both everyday moments and unforgettable adventures.
Thank you so much for joining me on this little unboxing. I can’t wait to fill these notebooks with stories, memories, and travels, and I’m excited to share every step of the journey with you.
See you in the next journaling post! I hope you all have the best moments as well! Cheers.
