How I Travel Journal | Journal with me in Paris

How I Travel Journal by Laura McCollough

In today’s video, I’m going to show you snippets from our Paris and Bruges retreat, as well as helpful tips for travel journaling.

I’ll give you lots of tips to set up your travel journal before your trip, how to get the most out of it during your trip and how to extend your trip once you get home… by experiencing the memories of your trip all over again in your travel journal and finishing it once you get home.

If you’d like to join me on one of my Art & Faith Creative Retreats, I’d love to welcome you next year. Our retreats are all sold out for 2026, but I should have details up for our 2027 retreats by mid-June of this year. You can find all the details on my website at:

Here’s a list of my favorite art supplies that I use. Next weeks video will be a more in-depth look at the best travel supplies to take with you, and the ones to leave at home.

Favorite Sketchbooks and Journaling Bible:

*Every time I post a photo of this Bible I get people asking me where it's from! They just started reprinting this one (it was out of print for years) It is only the NT b/c it's so small and compact.
