It’s time for the third list prompt in the List Journal (intro here), and this time we’re focusing on something I haven’t done much of lately; traveling. I’ve been doing a bit of work related travel around Sweden, but not the holiday resort adventure kind of traveling that one dream of. Not in a few years.
Well, not since I visited Egypt, and just thinking of that makes me want to plan & make a Travel journal and pack a bag. But in the meantime, one can dream….
List prompt #3: Dream Travel Places
You might have noticed that all our lists are five-lists (5 favorites etc). I like the short and sweet format of those lists. And this square journal that Tammy made for me is prefect for writing that kind of list. But each location/word could evoke a whole essay…
I think that’s one of the coolest things about a list. Each bull point sentence could be built upon, because there is almost always more to say… But this is my list right now, of five places I dream of traveling to someday:
- San Fransisco, US
- Rome, Italy
- Portland, OR, US
- Mexico
- Berlin, Germany
On my dream list is also events like the Knitting and stitching show in London and Art Journal Fest in the US. For years I’ve wanted to visit Sweden’s largest book fair in Göteborg, and this year I finally decided to make it happen. It’s going on right now and if you follow me on instagram (I’m ihannas there) you might have seen some of it already. I’m there now! Yay!
What places and countries do you dream of visiting? Please feel free to share your journaled list below, and then also visit DaisyYellow who shares her dream places too!
This is so lovely. I really like the painted backgrounds and the sewn on pieces. I will be putting together my dream travel list and post it to my blog soon. Hugs.
Here is my finished page for today’s prompt. Lots of fun. Cheers!
Please let me be your guide if you ever make it to San Francisco! I live an hour north of SF but my son lives there. I too have Italy on my dream places to go. Rome, Florence, Venice and Tuscany are all on my list. Alas art journal festival is no more. I got to go to #2 and #3 which were fabulous. I wish it would happen again!

Oh, wow! I heard about this list prompt and I was going to do it yesterday. This is interesting to see where you’d like to visit.
I do follow you on instagram, and I’m going to have to go check out your photos.
Love your list. Totally agree that the short 5-item list is a smart way to go ut each and every entry could make its own whole journal!
Inspiring! If you make it to San Francisco feel free to ping and we’ll get a coffee and talk crafts! :)
Inspiring! If you ever come to Barcelona, let me know!
Seriously, if you come to Knitting and Stitching next year, you can sleep on our sofa bed. It is a small flat, but I go to the show nearly every year (too ill this year) and we can find some fun places to journal. Sometimes accommodation is the biggest cost, so that leaves more money for travel and art supplies.
I can’t remember how we first got in touch, but it is at least 2 or 3 years now.
