Keeping a travel journal
ОглавлениеI can strongly recommend that you keep a travel journal whilst on safari. But don't take my word for it - here are some thoughts on the subject from some notable travel writers (and they should know right?):
"Photos show you what scenes looked like, but they won’t remind you of interesting details like sounds, smells, tastes, or how you felt. Most travel experiences are transformative, so it’s good to keep a written record of what changed you each day." - Sarah Duff, freelance travel writer
"A journal is a great place to convey the spirit of the place you’re visiting, not just the facts, which you can easily get from a guidebook. When you go back and read a journal years later, it’s those esoteric, private details that will transport you back to the moment." – Justin Fox, former Getaway magazine
"It doesn't matter what you write, or doodle, or draw. Take time to record your surroundings and indulge in the moment – something people are forgetting how to do. Instead of chasing the ultimate photograph, sit quietly with your notebook and create memories that way instead." – Narina Exelby, freelance travel writer
