Thank you so much for this review! Ironically, your previous reviews helped me make the decision to purchase a Leuchtturm 5 year and also an Unbound planner (as well as an Ink & Volt for goal setting). I like the Unbound 5-year (especially the paper weight), but I feel like I can fit in a few more lines in the Leurchtturm and I almost like the "messy" journaling look when dealing with a small space like this. I imagine my kids reading my journal decades from now and there's something almost antique and timeless about unlined journaling that I love. I'm excited to get started with it. Like you, my son will be leaving home near the end of this journal and I look forward to looking back on my "greatest hits" from his teen years.
Your comment was sent to SPAM on UA-cam....so sorry I didn't get to see it till now! I actually love your points! I love that you said the messy pages will seem antique and timeless years from now:) Thank you for taking the time to share:) I hope your New Year is going well too:)
Thank you for this! I am a fairly new subscriber, and I so enjoy your videos. I did not know 5-year journals even existed, but I love the idea of keeping one; especially being able to look back over a 5-year period to see how things have changed (and stayed the same). I just ordered the Leuchtturm one. I like the look of that one better (and the price). What a perfect time just at the start of the new year!
@Amanda how’s it going with the 5 year journal! My two dearest friends and I are turning the big 50 and I shared this idea and they like us doing it together,. How did it go in 2020? Now that you are in your 3 rd year? Thanks so much. I really appreciate your videos. I’ve learned so much.
The Unbound journal is beautiful. I'm using the Katie Daisy planner for journaling and mood tracking now. So I don't need this quite yet. Will have to keep in mind when I'm don't with the Katie Daisy planner.
@@AmandasFavorites I can understand that, I think I'm going to go for the same book you have been using. So nice to see that your channel has grown so much. Happy New Year 🎉☺️
I really like the 5 year journal with lines and I’m considering buying one. I was wondering if you are still using it and are there any discount offers for that particular journal?
I am still using both! LOL... I just included it in a planning update video:) Here is the link: ua-cam.com/video/Egg06RLh63I/v-deo.html I don't have a discount code. But it's always good to ask. Unbound is a very small company run just by Annie and her husband...and I haven't seen a discount on these ever that I can remember.
I'm on my second year of using a 10-year journal :) The journal is from Paperblanks, which is my favourite favourite notebook/journal company because they make the most gorgeous covers and their paper is really good too.
I have never heard of Paperblanks. But I am going to check them out! A 10 year journal sounds like an amazing keepsake:) Thanks for sharing, & Happy New Year!
I just ordered the Midnight Blue version of the Unbound journal. I like having the lines and thicker paper. Ended up being over $60 with shipping. The cost was $54USD. They had a yellow one called Sunflower (yellow/gold color) that was $2USD cheaper. But I ended up getting one where the gold foiling stood out more. Now, just have to wait for it to arrive. And jot down some notes so I can remember what I did the days without it. 🤔
@@AmandasFavorites Thank you! Also I absolutely love your videos, they are a great watch and full of useful information. You have helped change my life so much. I use the Happiness Planner (uk outlet) as the shipping from the States to Ireland is A LOT - but I am hoping to save up and try Erin Condren one day! My whole planner journey started because of you. So thank you once again!
I am in year 5 of the black Leuchtturm one and year 3 of the unbound one. Love them both still. Updates on this are in my quarterly planning update videos and my yearly 2022 stack video. All under th is playlist for 2022: bit.ly/36vwApv
Still using it:) And I added in the Unbound at the beginning of this year. In the Unbound I record just a gratitude or how I saw the hand of the Lord in my life that day. I love both of them a lot:)
One problem is that if you want to start in the middle of the year, or after January at least, you waste those pages since you can not start at any date.
I replied this this on the other video you put this comment on. But for those that might not read my reply there I will say it again here...It doesn't bother me, but I can see how it could bother others;)

Hi Judy;) I think you will love it! I can't wait to start year 2 in mine! Happy New Year:)
@@AmandasFavorites Happy New Year to you, as well! :-)
Thank you! Turning 50 in three weeks and it's a good time to start a project like this! Thank you for the discount code, too.
Oh, perfect timing on that big Birthday! Happy Birthday Early, & Happy New Year too:)
There seems to be several of these 5YR journals - I see a new top video coming 😉 I want to start one in January! ♥️
LOL:) Maybe one of these years;) 2022 will be my last year in my first ever 5 year journal...and I truly have enjoyed it;)

I am still in it and loving it! I will share updates on it in my Q-4 Planning Update coming up on January 5th. Happy Holidays:)
The Unbound journal is beautiful. I'm using the Katie Daisy planner for journaling and mood tracking now. So I don't need this quite yet. Will have to keep in mind when I'm don't with the Katie Daisy planner.
I hear ya;) Katie Daisy is so beautiful! Happy New Year Jen;)
Great review!
Have you considered reviewing the Hobonichi 5 year techo?
It's not one I am going to splurge on right now. But I will keep it in mind for the future;) Thank you & Happy New Year Andrea;)
@@AmandasFavorites I can understand that, I think I'm going to go for the same book you have been using.

Can you also review the new 5 year diary from Sterling Ink?
I don't have it on my immediate list. But I would love to do it someday! Thanks for letting me know you want to see it;)

Good idea to keep notes till it arrives:) I think you will love the quality...and being used for 5 years will make the coat worth it;)
Are there any other 5 Year Journals that you could recommend? :)
These are my favorites that I have found. There a lot to choose from on Amazon:)

Hi Amanda, are you still keeping up with the 5 year journal? =)
I am in year 5 of the black Leuchtturm one and year 3 of the unbound one. Love them both still. Updates on this are in my quarterly planning update videos and my yearly 2022 stack video. All under th is playlist for 2022: bit.ly/36vwApv
@@AmandasFavorites how exciting to be in the last year of the Leuchtturm! I'm going to pick up a 5 year journal soon - still in the research phase!
It is exciting! Next year I think I will just go back and read all the five past years on that day and take it all in:) Good luck in your choice:)
I am from the future. Get ready for 2020
So it's 2020...are you still using it or did you give up?
Still using it:) And I added in the Unbound at the beginning of this year. In the Unbound I record just a gratitude or how I saw the hand of the Lord in my life that day. I love both of them a lot:)
@@AmandasFavorites Thank you! I'm giving this a shot. Need to record gratitude and spiritual growth as well. Thank you 💚
Thank you)) Happy New Year)))
Same to you, I can't believe there are only a few days left!
