CIAK BLACK ITALIAN LEATHER TRAVEL JOURNAL/NOTEBOOK Size: Approx. 4¾ x 6¾" (12x17cm) Cover: Black Italian bonded leather CIAK introduces another great notebook to their range of quality notebooks - the CIAK Travel Notebook (or "Taccuino di Viaggio" in Italian). Measuring 12x17cm, the CIAK Travel journal features the usual high quality bonded Italian leather cover and Italian paper stock suitable for even fountain pens. The journal includes 'travel information' pages, such as a page for your travel itinerary, travel checklist and international sizes and unit measurements conversion. The actual writing pages are a mix of plain and ruled paper. This is a great idea and allows for writing and sketching in the same notebook, or even use as a travel scrapbook using photographs accompanied by a written account of your travels. The finishing touch on any CIAK notebook is of course the patented horizontal elastic band, which secures any pen tightly against your notebook. Like the rest of the CIAK range, the CIAK Travel journal is handmade in Italy, as proudly stated on the rear cover of the notebook. If you're looking for a leather travel journal/notebook, the CIAK Travel is a perfect choice. The Journal Shop's Promise If anything gets lost in the post, we'll replace it straight away.

Writing helps you... organise your thoughts relive your experiences better understand yourself and your emotions keep your mind sharp as you mature Writing has emotional, mental and physical benefits. As well as helping us understand our complex, often inarticulate emotions and psyche a little better, research carried out at UCLA indicates that there may be a connection between a lack of 'mental exercise' and Alzheimer's disease. A lack of 'mental exercise' in youth seems to manifest itself in the formation of plaque on the brain in early adulthood, which has been linked to Alzheimer's in later life. The principle is that if underused, the brain atrophies and decay, however slowly, will inevitably begin. Besides the physical benefits, writing helps us to better understand the workings of our own psyche. How many great pieces have started with no particular objective, yet emerged as a highly focused piece? The subconscious mind has a way of instilling a sense of unity into our writing, even when we write apparently random paragraphs that have no perceivable way of connecting with a greater thematic element. CIAK helps because it... keeps all your notes together is pleasing to the eye and touch - it encourages writing is mobile enough to always be there when you need it safely secures a pen under its horizontal enclosure.
