I’m in Southern California…This studio that you got your order from is not far from me. What a beautiful shop! This area was impacted by the wildfires, so I’m glad the shop was not impacted.
They have a beautiful creative vision. I appreciate this package of sooo much! ❤
I saw the address of the shop on the packaging and wondered if it had survived the wildfires. We saw so much of the absolute devastation in the news here in Ireland. Great to see your new planning system Sam. Looking forward to see how you get on. 😊
Sam!! I hope you love your new TNs! You know that the TN system has been the most consistent setup for me for almost 11 years now. 😍
I decided not to tell you about this order. I didn’t want to get your hopes up! So far, so good though. 🤞🏻
@@samplans I was definitely surprised. lol
I used the pocket TN as a bujo very successfully for a year with the DIY grid notebook (a bunch of grid pages with the thin cardboard for a cover held by the rubber in the middle, no binding), it was great, very comfortable, I wrote whatever I wanted without any pressure.
And the 2nd DIY notebook was the junk journal- bunch of pages out of a recycled magazine, over which I wrote my journaling ( I usually ventilated there, I don't need to keep it). Very useful.
I bought the leuchtturm adhesive penholder the larger one. And I placed it on my plastic zip insert.
Thank you! I’m pondering a few things, but don’t mind just carrying my pen with me for the moment.
Welcome back to the Traveler’s Company Notebook world! I’ve been using them since 2016 and its the best and most simple system to use. I recommend if you want to add more notebooks, you can thread the extra through the currentl loops so you can hold more notebooks easily! 🎉
Listers Gotta List FLASHBACK ✨
I much prefer graph grid to dot grid as well. I have had success with putting stickers on the outside of notebooks using removable glue dots to make sure that’s what I want
Love this system.
I am a standard TN girlie and have been for three years now. Welcome to the TN world again ❤
Edit: I have a camel for the past four or five years and the patina on that has been amazing. I don’t baby it, and the leather is still so soft!
How fun! I think this system is perfect! I am down to a pocket with one string, and I string my calendar, and a notebook together and that is it for on the go. Lately, I have been noticing it could be a little shorter to fit better in my purse. Now, as usual, you have my wheels turning. lol I have been wanting the blue leather cover, but I just never want to pay the price for it! Have fun! I can't wait for some updates.
Hi Sam! I'm a Filofax Rings planner for years now, I love the Maldens like you. I've also got a collection of TNs, both Passport and Standard in all the colours. I continually use a Passport as a notebook which I put in all my bags, and I use a Kaweco Brass Sports Fountain Pen to match as the paper is great with FP ink. When you next order get the Brass clip, it looks so cool and is so functional. I've loved these TNs as my companion journals, for Scripture, for my Reading journal and at times for a wallet. There are so many functions. One person I followed used one Standard for a year, so a new cover per year, and I thought that was a cool way to store/keep/revisit them. They look better with age, believe me. You really no longer need the coiled notebook. The TN Passport is better, the reusable cover really protects over time in multiple bags. Oh, that canvas wallet is really cool. Also for your pen loop, you can just use the elastic, if the pen thing slips on you. Use the standard as a common/junk journal, with some journalling, some memories, some collage or art, some notes or wisdom and quotes. It's very versatile. Oh ya, for charms you can use buttons, or jewelry, earrings, use your imagination. Yes, rings is definitely very functional. For one thing you can't store the loose pages year by year as you do the TNs, and I have never tossed one used TN refill yet. They are all cherished. It was fun to watch this. Take care. C
Field notes in a travelers notebook is my EDC!! I have many journals all for different reasons.
The selections, the little beam of sunshine pouring in to the side...everything is just so lovely and cozy in this video 🤎
I'll be watching to see how this goes as I have been wondering if i want a TN for next year. Crossing fingers for you.
I love the crane - it is beautiful on my passport cover. Yep. I was very brave.
I was gifted a Travelers Notebook for the holidays and I can’t wait to see how you use yours!!! 🥰
love your plans! I've used travelers (standard) for years now and still love it. I also have started using the standard size accordion insert. it doesn't have a ton of "pages" and isn't an overwhelming space to fill. in fact, I picked one up to document our trip to Chicago for Metallica last summer and will use another for our next Metallica weekend this coming summer :) also, I remember listers gotta list... so long ago!
You were there too?! It was a GREAT weekend! Which city will you be hitting this leg of the tour? I’ll have to look into that insert. ☺️
@@samplans oh my gosh it really was a great weekend so funny you were there too! We started off Friday night nose bleed seats and ended up buying floor tickets for Sunday haha (a little reckless since we also had those seats for Sunday) but it was so worth it and I practically could touch them as they entered!!! We also met Chris Kael from Five Finger and he's a gem! And this summer we're heading to the Tampa show:)
@caroline_mae_m we were lower than nosebleed and we once considered getting floor seats, because we never sit down for Metallica anyway but I worried about the view from the floor! I really would like to be along the rail as they come in though!
@@samplans We loved standing and could move around which was great! we stayed in the back and could see just fine so definitely worth it at that particular venue for sure :) and yes, it was amazing!!! 🤩🤩🤩
You should check out the Lauren Phelps Designs Traveler's Notebook Sleeve where you can put several books on one string rather than using the jump bands. They are so great - I'm obsessed! :)
You can also try the short trip insert if you want to feel accomplished once you've finished an insert. It's half of the regular insert.
I have a monthly passport notebook in a PLG Passport cover that I keep in my purse for when I carry smaller bags. I don't always have to take my planner everywhere with me, but I always want to have some kind of calendar for making appointments, notes on the go, etc. and the passport size is perfect! I also like the weekly layout--just the right amount of space for me because I really like tiny planners! Another plus--covers are easy to find in all different price points and can double as a wallet!
I’m halfway through the video, and am loving it!! You’ve gotta do what works for you…looking forward to seeing more of this (if it DOES work for your!!!)!
Your comment about the afghan and colors you enjoy made me smile! I used to crochet those afghans! 😉 Happy journaling in your TNs!
I have tried everything and just recently came back to passport. I am happy again. It is my planner, my edc, my notebook with shopping lists and I am just so comfy again and peaceful. I still have all the others which I use for journaling, faith and other reasons. But my passport is my little lovie ❤. Here's hoping you fall in love too 😊
Glad to see you’re trying travelers. I have them in different colors and have set them up to use some of them for tarot reading, zentangle, junk/art journal, short trips, etc. Love the midori paper. I’m using Sterling ink a6 and N1 this year but also ordered the wonderland 222 because I still think the grid in Sterling ink is too light even though she darkened it. I do hope hobonichi fixes the TRP paper next year. I can’t help it I still love hobonichi a6 and cousin. Hope you enjoy travelers and that it works for you. With all the TRP paper issues travelers was the obvious choice.
I love the camel passport and standard size. I have both. I love Traveler’s Company notebooks and have used them since about 2015. My first was a brown and my second was the Pan Am original blue. Now I have several. So I enjoyed your video very much. But when you said, out of nowhere, “no more wire hangers”, I lost it 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂! That awful movie, lol.😂 😂😂😂
I love my tn. I really hope you enjoy them Sam, thanks for sharing with us!
I started using a Passport notebook last year, as an addendum to my everyday N2/Weeks system. My passport is almost entirely functional - appointments, events, weekend to-do lists, packing lists, etc. The small size makes it so portable, I can take it to doctor appointments, travel with it and so on. I still use my N2/Weeks primarily especially for memory keeping, but my Passport is my workhorse. I only keep the previous' year, in case I need to reference something, so I'm not using it for journaling or anything. It's so great. Also, hello fellow Ohioan!
Hi Sam, love that you're trying Travelers Company again. I'm still using my Hobonichi Cousin and Weeks this year but the paper is different and I'm not loving it as much as I usually do. I still have to have my leather covers as well, they are definitely my 'comfort blankets' and I wouldn't be without them as part of my daily life. Just love my two Travellers Company covers, I've had the brown standard one for quite a few years I use that as my Travel journal and I also have a Passport size Camel, the more velvety texture on that is so lovely to touch. Yes, it seems so small, I remember thinking that when I first got mine but that quickly goes away when you add a couple of notebooks and a file folder. I have a brass charm on mine and a brass clip. This year I'm using the passport size as my EDC, with just a monthly insert and a grid notebook for notes, plus a file folder. It still gets babied and carefully placed rather than dropped into my bag. Lol. The folded thing with the white card in that has your name on the front in the packaging is your invoice, you'll need to unfold it. Just waiting to see how long it is till you do a 'Truely Yours' customisation on one of your covers from Baum Kuchen. Definitely a dream of mine but living in the UK it isn't a reality for me expense wise. Have fun with your new set up.
I purchased the Blackwing/ Travelers Company collaboration in standard size. Delivered last week. Not 100% sure how I’ll use it, but I like your idea of using it to document big events, extended journaling - something like that. Whatever I decide, I plan to keep it simple. Great video as always! Thank you!
I love it! I hope you enjoy this journey and that it works well for you!
They are beautiful!! I just switched back to TN system from rings. It’s such a cozy system. Excited to see how you use these!
So excited to see you in Travelers! I switched from Hobonichi to Travelers this year. Pocket as EDC and standard as art/sketchbook.
FyI ..
The Baum Kuchen notebook paper is very nice ...
I hope it works for you! Thanks for sharing your unboxing with us.
I used the standard TRC system for most of last year. It worked great for me. I moved into a sterling ink N1 this year and still use my beloved TN cover. Hopefully, this system works for you :)
Hi Sam... Enjoy whatever you decide, and enjoy moving on. It sounds like you think you "need" to fill up all notebooks. Maybe lighten that requirement. I don't care if I ever complete any notebook. I enjoy my day-to-day journey. lf I don't like a notebook/planner any longer, oh well... I might go back to it, I might not. I hope that I learn something from it and don't repeat that purchase. Don't really care about "IT", I care about me and how this thing contributes to my daily life (in a very tiny, tiny, way). I'm careful about buying, but if I don't like something I don't use it. It's not in my life any more. Life's too short.... Enjoy, be blessed, responsible, joyful, in the Lord. :)
Hi Sam! I have brought in allot of B6 Tomoe River notebooks and I found the one company that is the Tomoe River paper I remember.
Oooh, this is going to get dangerous for me in the best way! I’m journaling in standard TN, too!!!
Ah! The #listersgottalist was a favorite back in the day :D
Hi Sam.!!!!! I was so excited to see you trying Travelers Co again.! If you remember, I too am sooo upset about the Hobonichi planners this year and just can not get over how awful the TRP is this year. I’ve had Travelers Co TNs for the past couple years as a companion to my Hobonichi and this year I had to go All in.! If you go to the Travelers Co website you should get 004 pocket stickers, there’s 3 in a package, I use one of them inside the back cover of my passport, yup onto the leather (I got brave) and I put the pencil board in the pocket, does 2 things, its handy there and it puts a firmer surface on top of the knot of the elastic. Also there’s 006 for the Regular size TN pocket sticker.! For the pen loop, I originally had it on the Kraft Paper folder, hated it, so ended up putting ir right on the cover & I Love it.! For your travels, make sure you get the 010 double sided sticker tape and lastly they do have In Stock the Canvas Zipper insert.! I Don’t mean to help you spend your hard earned money but….these purchases have helped me enjoy Travelers Co Notebooks to the Max.!! Enjoy Sam.! Can’t wait to see your next Video.!!! Blessings
Sam; do you have the website address for where you ordered your TN’s through ?
Welcome to the TN Family (again). I am in 6th straight month this time around using my TN and making my monthly inserts. By making a 28,30 or 31 day journal insert then I don't get the anxiety down and know that I will finish them by the end of the month. Do you have the sticker insert for too? I love my standard size one to keep all my stickers in that I want to use.
Welcome to the TN world. I’m in a camel standard since last year. Get the sticker book.
I just bought the travelers compant blue one. Im trying to down size!
You mentioned page change of Hobonichi planners for this year that’s another reason for me to go to another company …. It’s so annoying 😢
“Pokémon catch ‘em all” list!😂
Ugh I KNOW I ordered a TN years ago but I cannot find it anywhere 😭 I can’t even find the receipt in my email. You in a TN seems kismet for some reason 💕
Ahhh! Find it or grab one!!
So in 2024 I was exclusively in a Weeks mostly due to health reasons. I missed my standard TN which was my "play" notebook and memory keeper. I live in Florida so I missed keeping track of the hurricanes, not that I necessarily felt up to it last year. I've been missing my passport also.
How exciting! I personally use and a6 tn as an edc. The inserts are not as easy to find, but for me it’s worth it cuz it’s my goldilocks size! But I do have passport too when go on longer trips, cuz I can document my trip and its so small it take up like no space at all, or weighs down my purse.
Where did you find an a6 tn pls?
so happy to see more people moving into the TN system!!! 🤎
Why?
