✈️ Are Your Packing Lists This Pretty? Mine Aren't 😂


Hey Reader,

It's Throwback Tuesday, and I have a confession...

I am really NOT this creative. 😂

I love my Bullet Journal.

I love making lists.

I love checking things OFF those lists.

But then I see the gorgeous packing lists people create with colorful pens, washi tape, little drawings and perfectly organized boxes...

And mine suddenly looks a little sad. 😄

I Still Love the Idea

Even if mine will never win a Bullet Journal beauty contest, I really do love using one for travel.

Because my brain before a trip usually looks something like this:

Swimsuit.

Chargers.

Sunscreen.

Did I stop the mail?

Don't forget the thing I forgot last time.

Where did I write down that restaurant?

Do I have enough shoes?

Of course I have enough shoes.

Maybe one more pair. 😂

Getting everything into ONE place makes such a difference.

And It Doesn't Have to Stop at Packing

This is what I really like about some of the ideas in this post.

You can use your journal to keep track of:

✈️ What you need to pack

🌴 Places you want to visit

🍹 Restaurants and bars you want to try

💰 Your vacation budget

📅 Your itinerary

⏰ Your vacation countdown

📸 And even your favorite memories afterward

I especially love that last one.

We take hundreds of photos when we travel, but sometimes it's the little stories behind those photos that I really want to remember.

But Here's Where I Draw the Line...

I am probably NOT drawing every outfit I'm packing. 😂

Stickers?

Absolutely.

Cute washi tape?

Bring it on.

Spending three hours illustrating my suitcase?

Nope.

I've got a vacation to plan.

Quick Question

How do YOU make your vacation packing list?

📓 Bullet Journal

📱 Notes app on my phone

📝 Good old-fashioned paper

🧠 It's all in my head... and I inevitably forget something

😂 Packing list? I throw things in a suitcase and hope for the best.

Hit reply and tell me!

And if you use a Bullet Journal for travel, I especially want to know...

Are your pages actually this pretty?!

Until next Tuesday, keep making those lists, checking them twice, and always keep it Key West-y. 🌴

Cheers,

Michele
