A Journal for Exploring Your City. I stumbled upon this clever idea journal in the sale area at Anthropologie. The categories of the pages steer you right through every nook and cranny of the city. From must to's, favorite neighborhoods, getting around on foot/ bike/ bus/ train, top eateries, and other fun ideas for bopping around on a stay-cation. The pages are blank to begin with for you, or me, to fill out! I love knowing the city I am in. Being able to tell visiting friends the favorite must see parts is a skill I admire of any city dweller. I think journaling about the city you are in is a great way to get to know it better. And love it more. I bought this journal as a gift for a friend, but before giving it away, I snapped a few photos of the pages so that I could share a bit about my city right here on the blog, for you to see and enjoy as well. Here it goes!
My City: Denver, Colorado.
Even if you do not have this specific SIDE WALKS journal, you can turn any blank paged book into this same sort of idea. Title your own pages, tape in photographs, and highlight your must see and favorite experiences in the which city you live. For some more journal DIY ideas, hop on over here, here, and here. (And on the topic of journals, I've always loved this vintage postcard calendar journal, you should go look and see! I have plans to make it, it's just that cute.)
