The Aussie Travel Journal

The Ideal Travelling Companion!

Includes a Travel pocket for phone, momentos, tickets, keepsakes or ...

The same great qualities of my classic handcrafted leather journal but specially designed with a handy traveller's pocket.

Available in Antique Oak Genuine Analine Leather

The Aussie Travel Journal benefits:

  • Inside 8cm leather side pocket to hold those small items that we need while travelling: tickets, directions etc as well as small notes & keepsakes from loved ones
  • Will also hold most phone sizes - up to 17cm high (will also depend on thickness)
  • Flexibility - the soft leather covers tuck nicely into backpacks, bags and pockets (unlike hard cover books)
  • The hand stitched pages result in a stronger journal than glued books
  • Pages lay flat for easy writing - NO spiral bindings
  • Wrap your journal closed to prevent accidental openings
  • The kangaroo leather wrapping strap is a little piece of Australia if you are travelling abroad

 

The Treasured Qualities of a Handcrafted Journal

Hand stitched leather journals have a magical quality!  Used for hundreds of years, you can feel this tradition when you hold one.

Handcrafted in the style of an earlier era, each journal is a work of art and signed by the Binder.  Read about the Leather Journal story here...>

  • Quality leather handcrafted cover
  • Kangaroo leather wrap around strap with leather top
  • 192 pages
  • Italian paper in ivory creme
  • 100gsm paper weight
  • Hand folded and pierced
  • Hand stitched with hand painted thread
  • Signed by the Binder
  • Totally handmade by a book lover in Australia
I make each journal in my studio in Torquay, Victoria, Australia and aim to create a small work of art to be treasured for many years.  I discretely sign each journal on the last page to authenticate my work.
 
A5 is a very popular size.  Favoured for it's ease of portability while still allowing plenty of room for lots of writing, sketches, keepsakes and personal style within the pages.
 
Ideal for writers, poets, song writers, travel thoughts, sketches, journal keepers and all those who love to keep treasures within pages of books!  
 
And of course - the perfect companion for sharing your story while sitting under your favourite tree, or discreetly in the back of that wonderful cafe where the coffee is as rich as the constant evolving cast of characters.
 

Personalise This Journal

Title Page

The journal can be personalised with a Title Page printed with a name, a quote or both. Add a personalised title page to this journal ...>

Monogramming

Add initials to this journal with blind debossing.  Beautiful brass letters are heat stamped into the leather to create a timeless and elegant impression. Add a monogram here...
 

And you are supporting and enabling an Artisan Tradition to continue! 

From the Maker's Hands to Yours.

A labour of Pride & Love!

Thank You!

    Beautiful place to keep memories

    Posted by Jo on 11th Aug 2017

    I bought this for my sister and this is her review. The workmanship is beautiful and contributes to the special nature of this travel journal. I was gifted it for my birthday to accompany me on an upcoming 5 week holiday in Spain. A wonderful combination that will bring me enormous pleasure to use, read, reflect upon and have as a wonderful memory of time and place. Gorgeous!

    TRAVEL JOURNAL

    Posted by LORNA BENNETT on 14th Dec 2016

    This is the second Journal I have purchased, for two of my sons. My first son took it on his travels with him & found it so handy to write in but also to keep his papers etc in. It is such a special, personal item (especially if you personalise the front page which I highly recommend) It is a unique gift that we found our son loved and will treasure & keep for many years.Thank you Bookseed!!!

    Thank you Beverley for your care and attention. I really wanted the red in this as this was the receipents favourite colour. Beverley made this happen. As a memento for each of the children that gifted the journal to their teacher Beverley made them each a bookmark from the same leather as the journal. Such a heartfelt gesture. Excellent service above and beyond. Would recommend Bookseed to anyone looking for something special to treasure always. Thank you
