Journal Instructions
A shorter version of these instructions will be imprinted into the Journals.
Welcome to the Journal Around the World Project!
Congratulations on receiving this unique journal. This is not just any ordinary journal, but a journal that will travel around the world and capture the essence of the people who contribute to it. The idea behind this project is to create a collection of stories, experiences, and thoughts from different people around the world. By participating in this project, you will become a part of this global community, and your story will be a part of this unique project.
The rules are simple: once you receive the journal, fill out a page, or a few, with your name, the date, and something about yourself. It could be anything – your favorite quote, a memorable experience, a significant achievement, or something you learned recently. There is no right or wrong answer; it’s all about sharing a little bit about yourself. Feel free to include a drawing, or picture as well.
After you have filled out a page, , pass the journal on to someone else. You can give it to a family member, a friend, a stranger, or you can leave it in a public place for someone else to find. The idea is to keep the journal moving, so it can travel as far and wide as possible. If you know somebody getting on a flight soon, or traveling in another way, ask them if they would like to take it with them!
Remember to take good care of the journal and treat it with respect. It is a unique project, and we want it to continue for as long as possible. Ideally you should have the journal for a day or two. We encourage you to be creative and expressive in your entries, and we can’t wait to read about your story.
Thank you for participating in this project and contributing to the global community. Let’s make this journey a memorable one!
