Be sure to write it down...

I have quite a few Moleskine notebooks. One diligently tracks my travels; one holds my thoughts, as random as they are. These journals are an absolutely necessary part of my personal life and are really quite handy. Moleskines were more commonly used in a bygone era which is why, I suppose, I use them.

Crafting journals is a bit of a lost art, I believe. Men like Hemingway did it; so did Chatwin. Van Gogh was an intense user of Moleskines as was Picasso.

While sitting in the hurry and fervor of downtown or at some little known house of beer and whisky, writing in a Moleskine proves to be a great getaway. I can be on a busy street on a park bench and not notice a single SUV roaring by … if I am writing in my Moleskine. While traveling, they provide the opposite; I can better focus on the world around me. Accurately translating my travels into a Moleskine is effortless.
