Love this little course on travel journaling. Aniko offers interesting exercises and practical tips to capture the essence of your adventures and meaningful moments. Edit: A bit disappointed that all additional resources are in Spanish only. I was looking forward to reading the extra creative activities. It would be nice to warn us what language(s) are the other resources.
