an ode to the paper republic XL grand voyageur

What's in my journal?

Like most, I have different notebooks for different things. Currently, I hold 3 separate notebooks in my grand voyageur:

1) Commonplace

Commonplacing is random and requires an Index, so i found the Leuchtturm1917, B6+ soft cover to be the best for this.

I never know what content will be going in here - usually book reviews/notes, notes on an article or podcast, notes on an album or artist or museum, a documentation of something - so she stays organized via the Index

2) Leuchtturm1917 planner, B6+ soft cover

It has a 12 month calendar in the front few pages, and the rest of the planner is empty dotted pages, used for braindumps for personal projects, project outlines, ideas. Mostly my girllovespaper journal.

3) Moleskin, Large soft cover

Lined for journaling, morning pages, all writing. Sometimes doodles and maps to organize personal thoughts. Whatever the day calls for.

Size differences

The leuchtturms are about 1.5cm smaller than the grand voyageur and the moleskin fits perfectly and snug
