Hellu!

A while back I made myself a tiny travelers journal from scrap leather, elastic sewing thread and glue! It’s roughly the size of a card-holder or small wallet. It’s not perfect, but it’s mine :) When I bring it out, I usually have one of those small IKEA pens with it!

It has the size of A7 but because I decided to have loose pages I mostly use them as A6. Neat huh?

I have two sections, one more private and one less private.

What’s yours smallest notebook?

    aah nice! You seem to have a well-worked system! I’m a bit envious, mine is a mess. haha

    You also don’t need to worry about dropping a few cards. Dropping a whole Moleskin notebook would be more sad.

    ooh interesting you have a B5 notebook, It’s between A5 and A4, right? Is it common where you live? Now I’m curious :D

      Thanks! I do my best to stay organized.

      I’m in the US where we generally don’t use ISO paper sizes, except for in some niches like notebook enthusiasts. But we have a notebook size called a “composition” book that is close to B5, and is very common, especially among students. I think it’s the most common notebook size here.

        ooh true true! Very interesting :) Isn’t there a paper size called ‘letter’ as well? That’s like an A4 but longer

          Yes, letter is the standard size in the US for loose leaf, printers, writing pads. It’s actually wider and shorter than A4. The other main sheet size is “legal”, which is the same width as letter, and is longer than A4. Legal is much less common. You’re most likely to see it on yellow, ruled “legal pads”.
