Before going on a trip, I want to plan which tourist spots to visit.
After going on a trip, I want to record my fun memories.
I decided to make this notebook because I wanted to enjoy my travels more.
chance
This is a very personal story, but my boyfriend and I are now in a long-distance relationship, with me living in Aichi and Kansai.
So we decided to enjoy traveling for a few months until our long-distance relationship was over, so that we could see each other at least once every two weeks.
Since I'm traveling to so many different places, I wanted to make sure I enjoy everything before and after the trip to the fullest, so I decided to create this notebook.
concept
It is designed to be used anytime, anywhere.
One feature unique to digital notebooks is the ability to include links within the notebook.
When we think of travel, we often imagine a two-day trip, but it's also great for day trips or short dates.
We create our products with the desire to make going out more enjoyable.
variation
1 year type
You can refresh yourself by switching to a new notebook every year, and it comes with a yearly calendar.
This can be chosen to start in January or April.
Recording your trips on a calendar will also give you more fun to look back on your life.

This set of six colors has a simple structure but is designed to last for a long time.
The longer you keep recording, the more you save.

cover
The details of the cover design are explained in this article.
I would be happy if you could take a look!

Calendar (1 year type)
The one-year type comes with a calendar.
You can choose between two calendar patterns: Sunday start and Monday start.
I kept a calendar so I could keep track of when I went out.
List page
This page allows you to view a list of your trips.
Travel list
By adding a house icon, you can easily identify which icon represents the page.
I've also added icons so that you can intuitively understand where the hyperlink will take you ☺︎
Calendar icon (1 year type)
The one-year type has a calendar icon in the top right.
Tapping here will take you to the calendar page.
Reason for the number
Each location is numbered.
This is to make it easier to see what it is linked to on the details page that appears later.
icon
Icon to jump to the spot page and icon to jump to the schedule page.
Because it is a digital notebook, we have added hyperlinks to make it easy to use and move around on every page.
Why square?
Don't you think squares are very convenient?
I love how four squares lined up together make a square. Lol
You can either put up the photo you took in a square shape, or you can put up four of your favorite photos side by side.
This is intended for inserting photos, but if you don't take many photos, you can also insert the name of the location.
Where do I write my destination?
You can write inside the square.
You can write on the squares.
I hope you'll use it freely according to your preferences!
What to write?
The calendar icon shows when you plan to go.
In the person icon section, you can see who you are going with.
You can now enter the following information.
If you visit more than 20 locations, click here!
I think some people will go to more than 20 places.
If you run out of notes, just make a copy of the original note.

Spot page
When making plans, you need to find places to go.
Where should we have lunch? Where should we go sightseeing? Where should we go for a snack break?
This page is for you to research and write down things like these in advance.
I created this page so that you won't end up feeling like you've wasted time traveling and regretting it by thinking, "Ah, I should have done more research."
Top right icon
Each button is used to transition between pages.
square
When I take notes about shops and tourist spots I want to go to, I often find myself wondering what the atmosphere of the place is like, so I've added a space to put an image of the place.
What to write?
Each entry includes the name of the shop or tourist attraction, its opening hours, a GoodleMap link, notes, and in the last section, a link to the official website.
Because it's a digital notebook, you can easily check locations and store information.
Of course, it's okay if you don't fill in everything!
Desire to go
I created a bar to indicate how much I want to go.
It's common to indicate this with stars or something similar, but I thought it would be a hassle to fill in the stars one by one in a digital notebook, so I came up with a way to indicate the degree of detail you want to go with just one highlighter.
We recommend using Goodnotes' 5.0mm highlighter pen as it is the perfect thickness to fill in the blanks.
Actually, there is such a function!
It's rare that a trip only has three places to visit.
In fact, you can copy this page and use it for yourself.
Here's how to add a page to Goodnotes:
Schedule Page
Use it as if you were making a travel guide.
Before your trip, write down your plans, and after the trip, write down when and where you actually went with photos. We hope you enjoy it!
Top right icon
Each button is used to transition between pages.
title
This is a space where you can write in large letters "where you are going."
schedule
Vertical bars are used in the schedule entry section.
We have included this so that the time periods can be easily summarized.
The background features neat, easy-to-write grid dots.
Before the trip, I write down my schedule.
After the trip, I used the digital notebook's ability to easily move text around to write something down.
You can use it as a memory notebook by adding when you actually went and the photos you took at the time.
Additional Pages
It can be a bit frustrating when you realize that you haven't written enough.
For such occasions, we have prepared a page where you can write down further memories.
This is a version of the schedule page without the title section.
If you still need more writing space even with the additional pages, you can add more pages in Goodnotes and use them.
Here's how to add a page to Goodnotes:
lastly
What was your motivation for creating this travel notebook?
I felt that I couldn't introduce everything, so I introduced the points I focused on and detailed instructions on how to use it.
I hope this will help you enjoy your trip even more 💭
