For several months now, I’ve been keeping a paper journal for my tasks and a few thoughts, using the basic principles of a bullet journal. (However, I hardly like to utter that term, as I love the original, extremely simple idea, but I reject the empire or the almost sect-like movement that has emerged from it. Well, but nowadays, that’s more or less the same with almost all interesting ideas.) Back to the topic. Although I try to become a bit more independent of technology and not to immediately jump on every trend, I couldn’t help but get two technical devices for my paper journal - namely two printers. One is an Instax mini Link 3, which I use to print and paste really beautiful memories, and the other is a thermal paper printer from peripage.1 2 There are adhesive sticker rolls available for it. Printing and pasting a blurry, black-and-white image quickly just brings joy ;-) BTW believe it or not, I’ve managed to avoid falling into the Rabbit Hole pens trap. So far. 😅

A journal page titled Daily Log lists entries with dates alongside a black and white photo of a large dandelion.A journal spread features handwritten notes with blurred text, a photo attached on the bottom, and a pen placed beside the open pages.

  1. I learned from Ruminate that there are incredibly cheaper models; but by then, I already had mine … ↩︎

  2. With the purchase, I broke my own rule to only buy devices with USB-C; unfortunately, I had completely overlooked the fact that it has micro USB. ↩︎
