Introduction

I have been obsessed with travel journals for a while now. Today I am really excited to share my Sri Lanka Honeymoon travel journal with you. Here is the ready-made cover of the journal. It was a wedding gift from my cousins.

Items I used in this travel journal

In this travel journal, I used the following items:

  • Left over currency (LKR and coins)
  • Postal stamps
  • Sand from Unawatuna beach
  • Tickets
  • Receipts
  • Cinnamon leaves
  • Cinnamon tree bark
  • Pictures
  • Small mirrors
  • Cloth pieces
  • Pictures
  • Brochures
  • Day itinerary by tour guide
  • Maps
  • Luggage tags
  • Air tickets
  • Mobile sim
  • Clothes tags (shopped from there)
  • Post cards
  • Stickers
  • Tea bag
  • Sketches
  • Coasters from hotel
  • CD from temple of tooth relic
  • Printed tissue paper

  • Hotel note pad page
  • Local mango juice logo
  • Mihin Lanka airline tooth picks
  • Hotel key card

Ideas for your travel journals

As you can see above, sky is really the limit when it comes to what you can use in scrapbooks or journals. There is no right or wrong in art anyway. Its your thing so you can do whatever you feel like.

The postal stamps I used in this journal were the duplicate stamps from the envelope which I exchanged with my Sri Lankan friend while I was there.

In my first travel journal on Europe, I wrote too much. In my second on Dubai, I wrote only in bullet points. In my Sri Lankan journal, I decided to keep it very simple and not write at all. So this one is all visual. Hope you enjoy the pictures.
