Summer is right around the corner which means summer travel is as well. If you are traveling by plane, train, or automobile or are simply planning a low key staycation, you will want to document your trip. Travel journaling can be completed (or started) when you are on your trip, or it is something that can be finished up once home with photos and ephemera collected along the way. These five tutorials will show you how to use pre-made and DIY journals to document your travels.
