Yes! I have more designs, so I'm currently working on cleaning them up so they can become printables and actual cards. I'll share an update when they're done 😄
Such an inspiring video!! I looove stationary hauls 💖 I also have this struggle with my favourite pen. I use ErichKrause G-Soft gel pen and it's impossible to find refills for it where I live! Hate that I have to throw away a perfectly nice pen after use, I know it could've served me for a very long time if I had a refill.
This video is so fulfilling and exactly what I needed today! I currently use Claire Fontaine neodeco series A5 for planning and journaling in one. The cover design is cute and minimalistic and the texture, thickness and quality of the paper is just so good. I’ve tried to seperate planning and journaling in different notebooks, but I’ve noticed that it makes me less in tune with things. Buttt I will say that seeing your notebooks make me want to try out different things and brands 🥺💓
I love the timeline idea!! I just recently bought a instax camera so that's a great way to use it for. Can you recommend a notebook for that? Specially sticking instax photos make pages thick 😅 Your recommendation will greatly appreciate it. ❤❤❤
Yay! I think any notebook will do though. I think next time I will go for a ringbinder, because of how bulky it can get. But I would just start with something you really like. There's no wrong or right 😄
I felt sad hearing you dog your parents for taking you away in a caravan when you were younger. There were/are lots of children who would be greatful for such a luxury 😢
I never said anything mean about my parents and our family vacations. I have no reason to. I think you misunderstood when I shared what kind of holidays my parents used to book us. I had a lot of fun as a kid, but I always knew that I myself like a different type of vacation. And as I am an adult, I give myself those vacations 👌🏼 Last but not least, you might be new here, but my family and I know what it's like to have no money at all. I've shared that before, hence my goal with this channel is to help you achieve whatever it is you like. So let's not make assumptions about each other, without knowing the full story and keep on stepp'n 😄
The assumptions I made were that your parents were doing the best they could. Perhaps I missunderstood as it wasn't so much what you said but how you said it when you said your parents would take you caravaning but you would now be holidaying in 5*. It's easy to do when you're not in a conversation. I apoligise that I've hurt your feelings.
@@TheWaldHaven. No worries, no hurt feelings 😄 But I will correct the assumptions if I have to. And it's nice to have a friendly convo about it like this. Thanks for being relaxed about it 👌🏼
@@mytruelife I think it's important to be a decent person online & IRL interactions. + being open to communication means we have the chance for a deeper understanding :D win win
For your weekly trackers, maybe put them in the column for the weekly pages of the a5? I have a weekly to do list at the top and then trackers at the bottom
Thanks so much for your review ! Has really helped as I have lots on the go with a doctorate and work and travelling with a backpack 🎒! I think I need an alternative one as not enough space for appointments ! And need a hard backed on I think!
I like the simplicity of your bullet journal. Between hobonichi notebooks and stalogy notebooks I prefer hobonichi. I don't like the bigger grid of stalogy and the bleed through of my favorite markers. Please let us know what you think after trying the stalogy. 🙂
Muscle holds water, so don’t stress, especially at this phase. Try plotting your weight ups and downs to see patterns over time. You just want an overall downward trend.
I like the Leuchtturm 120 grams. I use that one for my personal journal and it's awesome! But it all depends on what you like, so it might be a good idea to try a few. I just know that at least 100 gram paper doesn't see through. Hope that helps! 😄
@@mytruelifeAww thank you!! I am a auti planner girlie and love love sticking to specific brands so i can’t wait to try this out 🥺😻 Can these also be purchased through the website you recommended?
@@Kat-px6vf You mean Penstore dot nl? Yeah, they are reliable in my experience and ship world wide. But Leuchtturm is German/world wide, so if you're located near that country you can find them easily in different shops 😄
Because we women go through so many changes in our lives, we're built for change. We know how to adapt. Anyway, I remember overhearing a guy (years ago) saying you can't trust anything that bleeds for 5 days and not die. I was a child at the time and didn't understand what he meant at the time 😂
Hahahhaha, well... I'd say we're pretty trustworthy and super humans 🙌🏻 Because it is quite remarkable that we survive 5 days of bleeding every month 🤣
I loved this video. I am studying japanese and use a hobonichi weeks as diary and tracker. And I use the kokuyo campus notebook for grammer notes. I want to learn Korean one day, but don't want to mix the two languages up in my mind lol. So for now my focus is japanese.
I like the Chic Sparrow or Sojourner passport sizes because it holds WAYYYYY more than Travelers Company-without the overhang. BUT I have a TC cover that I’m using rn with two inserts and a wallet insert. It’s nice if you want a streamlined system, but if you want to carry more than that, I’d go with a different cover.
I don't understand why you spend so much time talking about your difficulty in buying all TN in the Netherlands. You were traveling to Rome, where there is a TN partner store, where you could buy what you "need/miss".
I wanted the specific TN that you see in the video and that one was hard to find in the Netherlands. I also didn't know there was one in Rome, but now I do. So thanks for the tip. I might pop in there next time 😄
The content I was looking for! Thank you so much for this! I'm so glad RU-vid recommended your video to me on the sidebar. Did you print your photos while you were on the trip?
Aaah, yay! Happy to hear this video was helpful. No, I printed my pictures when I got home. I don't have one of those pocket printers, so I had to wait and print at home. But that made journaling and remembering fun 😄
I’ve been collecting TNs since 2018 and have been a Hobonichi person before that, so I guess I’m used to paying a lot for covers and planners. 🥲 But if you don’t have anything TN yet I would recommend getting an insert first, be it regular or passport or both and see how you vibe with the size, if you can think of different ways to use it etc. Definitely don’t go for a cover first! Thanks for sharing this with us, it’s always nice to see how other people use their TNs 💌
Most deff a good tip! I already had notebooks in this size, so size-wise it was an easy decision to make. But for newbies, your tip is definitely a good one. Thanks for sharing ❣😄
Fun video although we do not have this store in Poland so I cannot make use of it. Could you say something about your Loops? Are they comfortable to use? Do they block noise well? I'm looking for something to shut out my neighbors monster dog barking.
It depends on which Loops you have. I have the experience version and I can still hear people talk if I need to. I also used them on a plane and it drowned out a lot of noise. I most def don't hear my neighbours dog barking when I wear them 😄
I love that you are making these kind of video’s again!!❤️🎊 Never heard of Delfonics or Habanaci but def inspired and going to check it out now. Would you mind sharing a nail tutorial here or on insta? I would love to know how you made these because they are so cute!!
In België, zeggen we ‘legende’ ipv ‘legenda’ en ik wist niet dat het verschilde tussen de twee landen. Ook weer iets bijgeleerd 😅 echt een leuke video trouwens, ik ga denk ik ook iets soortgelijks proberen maar dan voor Duits 😊
Wat leuk! Ik ben ook bezig met Koreaanse les weet precies wat je bedoelt met de engelse/koreaanse vertalingen. Misschien heb je hier ook wat aan; breen education kanaal op youtube Nederlands/koreaans les.
Thanks for sharing! Loved your simple yet efficient way of using your planner. ❤ I'm also learning Korean so hearing how much you've improved in a year makes me really inspired to study and track it! Would also love to see your notebook for learning KR 😊 You mentioned you also have a Bullet Journal and I was wondering about what you put on it vs on your hobonichi. 🤔 I'm gonna ramble a bit now. I love to watch stationary and planning videos and have tried Bullet Journaling a couple times but I end up abandoning it (for some reason I hated having to make my own yearly/monthly/weekly pages, maybe I struggle with the lack of structure? Idk). Last year, I tried a planner for the first time, it was a vertical planner but I mostly used it to journal and write about my day not that much planning. This year I'm trying a horizontal chronic illness planner and a hobonichi weeks dupe but I often find myself duplicating entries and if I don't, I see a lot of empty space which stresses me out lol. I'm not sure how I should use 2 planners 😅. I thought it would be a good idea to use the chronic illness one for everything health and the weeks for my other tasks and tracking my study, sleep etc. Any feedback would be appreciated
Aaah, thanks for the sweet comment❣️😄 I personally do not use more than one planner. I have my Hobonichi and my bullet journal for tasks. I tried having two planners last year and that just was not productive at all, haha! I guess it's trial and error, finding something that works for you. Also, I've learned that there are a lot of 'planners' here on RU-vid that do not actually plan. They decorate and fill their pages beautifully, but if you look closely there's no actual plan. So I stopped caring about pretty layouts and filling all the spaces. If I get stuff done because of my planner, I've used it well. And I get stuff done because I've build using my planner and bullet journal into my routine. I can not start my day without it. Hope that helps😄
Hello Kaya, I am glad your video populated in my search for Hobonichi Weeks setups. I did enjoy the chat thank you for being candid. I am happy for you that you have come so far in Korean and feel free to plan and share your thoughts. I could barely make out a little accent…what languages do you already speak besides English? Just curious. It’s fascinating to me. Blessings always, Theresa 🫶🏼 oh, and yes, completely agree 💯 with ‘gamifying’ life. 🤭
Thanks for the lovely comment❣️ I currently speak Dutch (native) and English. I can speak some German if I really have to. I can ask where the bakery is in French, haha! And I'm learning Korean 🙌🏻 And yes, gamifying is awesome 😄
