MEMOIR JOURNALS & companion guidebooks

Mejo Companion Guides measure 4.75" x 7.75" so fit easily in most day packs and purses. 

They are large enough to write in, but small enough to carry around.

Mejos weigh about  7 oz each, so don't add extra weight to carry.

Mejo Travel Journals are hardbound and measure 6" x 9"

Mejos cover up to a two week holiday. Each journal has 14 days of dedicated daily journaling pages (two pages per day with space to write your accommodation details, activities planned, tips & reminders, etc.,)  in addition to the other pages that make Mejo so unique.

If your trip is shorter, the excess daily journaling pages can be easily removed thanks to the spiral binding.

Companion Guides have spiral binding which allow them to lay flat when opened and fold back completely so they are more manageable to read and write in. 

The spiral binding also helps the book expand naturally without fanning out when you tape in ticket stubs, stamps, brochures, stickers, and other scrapbook souvenirs.

Memoir Journals are hardbound.

Both Mejo Travel Journals and Mejo Companion Guides contain information about how to best prepare for a trip. This includes information about help items to travel with, packing lists, how to keep in touch with friends at home, what kind of travel insurance to buy, how much cash to bring and how to change it, safety travel tips, and what to consider when choosing luggage - carry on or checked. 

Whether you are a seasoned pro at journal writing or new to the practice, Mejos help inspire your process by offering ideas of topics to explore and by through thoughtful questions about your experience. 

At the beginning of your trip Mejo asks you to consider your initial thoughts  why you have chosen this destination, what the context of the trip is in your life at the moment and what you hope to get from the experience.

While you're on the trip, Mejos provide places dedicated to recording your favorite memories: foods, quotes, most beautiful views, biggest surprise, favorite scent, most inspirational moment, etc. 

At the end of the journey Mejo asks for your final thoughts: what this experience away from home has given you, how your perspective has shifted, what insights you've gained, how your sense of self has expanded, and what you are most grateful for. 

Your answers and thoughts combine to create the best souvenir you will bring home from the trip; one that will take you right back to the journey and keep the memories fresh.

Mejos become a treasure chest of memories that keep your travel experiences alive forever. The details and stories you include in your Mejo bring back the little memories that photos on phones don't capture. 

A pen is all that's really necessary, but it's also helpful to bring a pair of TSA approved folding scissor to cut receipts, ticket stubs, the logo from a café's napkin, and other fun items, as well as double edged tape or a glue stick. 

The Essential Kit in our shop includes these items, all in a neat zippered pouch that helps organize loose items until it's time to use them.
