Well, today we're diving into50 journal prompts for those who
love to travel.
It's a blog post from a companycalled the Stallion.
It was posted by Claire Penroseon May 1st 2024.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
What I find fascinating is how it's not just
like a list of prompts, it'smore of a roadmap, almost, for
how to actually use your travelexperiences for personal growth
and to plan even more epicadventure.
Speaker 1 (00:40):
Right.
It's like they took the whatdid you do out of travel
journaling Right and replaced itwith how did it change you?
Plus and you know I love a goodmystery lens there's something
kind of intriguing aboutLestallion itself their name,
their journal covers.
Horses are everywhere.
We'll dig into that a littlebit later, but first let's
unpack some of these prompts.
Yeah, starting with the yourtravel reflection section, clara
(01:03):
starts off strong with what isyour earliest memory of
traveling.
It really makes you realize howmuch those early trips, even if
they seemed, you know, ordinaryat the time, shape how we see
the world as travelers.
It's true Think about it.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
What if, like your first trip ever, was this
chaotic family vacation?
You might crave more structured, independent travel now, but if
your early experiences were allabout like exploration and
discovery, you might be drawn tomore off the beaten path
adventures.
It's all connected Totally.
Speaker 1 (01:34):
And speaking of impactful journeys, prompt
number five asks what travelexperience has changed you the
most, and this one isn't justabout souvenirs or anything.
It's about those you knowpivotal moments of growth.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
Exactly Like was it maybe encountering a new culture
that really challenged yourperspective, or maybe stepping
outside your comfort zone in away that, like, boosted your
confidence?
These prompts make you realizethat, like, travel is more than
just you know sightseeing.
It's a catalyst for, like realpersonal transformation.
Speaker 1 (02:05):
Okay, I have to ask about prompt number eight,
because well food it's eight.
It simply asks describe thebest meal you've had while
traveling.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
While that might seem , you know, pretty
straightforward, it's about morethan just like deliciousness,
right, you know?
Remember that kind offamily-run restaurant you
stumbled upon in Italy where thepasta tasted like pure magic.
It's about how food connects usto a place and its people.
It creates these memories thatlinger long after the trip is
(02:33):
over.
Speaker 1 (02:33):
Okay, we've dug into the past a little bit.
Now let's talk dreamdestinations.
Lestallion's your Travel Dreamsection is all about defining
your ideal travel experience,and it starts with prompt number
two.
What would your perfect travelday look like?
Speaker 2 (02:47):
this is where I think the diversity of travel
preferences really shinesthrough.
You know, for some it'ssummoning a mountain at sunrise,
for others it's like leisurelyexploring a new city's hidden
cafes.
Speaker 1 (02:59):
There's no right or wrong answer, really, which is
what makes travel so excitingright, and speaking of
excitement, prompt number fourasks what is on your travel
bucket list?
Now, bucket lists sometimes geta bad rap for being cliche, but
there's something undeniablymotivating about having those
like big, audacious travel goals, don't you think?
Speaker 2 (03:18):
Absolutely.
I think it's.
It's the psychology ofachievement at play.
Having, like, a concrete listof these dream destinations
makes those aspirations feelmore tangible, plus the
anticipation leading up to, youknow, crossing off a bucket list
item can be almost as rewardingas the experience itself.
Speaker 1 (03:37):
Okay, I have to ask about prompt number seven.
What is the most adventurousthing you want to do while
traveling?
This one really makes you thinkLike what does adventure even
mean to?
Speaker 2 (03:46):
you Precisely?
Is it like bungee jumping inNew Zealand, or is it finally
trying that street food stallyou always walk past?
The beauty of adventure is thatit's like deeply personal.
For some it's about physicalchallenges, but for others it's
about stepping outside theircomfort zones and like new
cultural settings.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
That's such an important reminder.
But let's be real for a sec.
Not all travel is sunshine andyou know perfect itineraries.
Sometimes those unexpectedbumps in the road lead to the
best stories, wouldn't you say?
Speaker 2 (04:16):
Oh, absolutely.
Sometimes those detours arelike the things you remember
most.
But actually, before we diveinto travel's, you travels, you
know messy bits.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
I wanted to circle back to the listallion mystery
for a second oh right, I got socaught up in these prompts I
totally forgot about our umhorse loving enigma.
It's just like like right, it'sstrange, you know.
It's not like they're sellingsaddles or anything, it's travel
journals.
Speaker 2 (04:38):
So yeah, what's the connection?
That's what's so interestingabout this.
You know, horses oftensymbolize freedom, exploration,
journeys of self-discovery, allthose things we associate with
travel.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
So maybe they're using the horse imagery
intentionally, like tapping intothose deeper meanings.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
Exactly.
It's subtle, but it's there.
It makes you think about those.
You know, those travel brandsthat use mountains or compasses.
They're not just selling aproduct, they're selling a
feeling, an aspiration.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
Okay, that's actually brilliant marketing if that's
what they're doing,subconsciously planting that
seed of wanderlust in our brains.
One horse-themed journal at atime Sneaky, sneaky, lestallion.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
Right.
But speaking of journeys,literal and metaphorical, let's
get back to those travelchallenges prompts.
They're a good reminder thatnot everything goes to plan on
the road, right.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
But that's OK.
It's true, in fact, thoseunexpected hiccups, they often
make for the best stories lateron.
So, what kind of travelchallenges does the stallion
want us to unpack?
Speaker 2 (05:37):
Well, problem number one encourages us to write about
a travel mishap and how youhandled it.
We often focus on the highlightreel of our trips, you know,
but it's those moments whenthings go sideways that can
teach us like the most valuablelessons.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
Oh, I have a story about that.
Remember that time we went onthat so-called luxury cruise and
it turned out to be like afloating buffet line, with
constant announcements and waytoo much shuffleboard.
Speaker 2 (06:03):
Ah yes, the perils of misleading travel brochures.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
But you know, what.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
Even those experiences can be valuable if
we're willing to learn from them, right?
What did you take away fromthat, shall we say,
character-building cruise.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
Honestly, it made me realize that I value authentic
experiences and genuineconnections over, you know,
manufactured tour straps.
So I guess that cruise wasn't atotal loss after all.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
Exactly.
It's all about perspective,isn't it?
I think by reflecting on thosetrips that maybe didn't quite
live up to the hype, we gain aclear understanding of, like,
our travel preferences, ourpriorities, what we truly value
in a travel experience.
You know, which is exactly whatthis prompt encourages us to do
.
It's not just about, like like,venting about bad travel
(06:46):
experiences.
It's about finding thosenuggets of wisdom, I guess.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
I'd say hidden within those mishaps okay, that's
actually a really helpful way tolike reframe those less than
ideal travel moments.
Now this next prompt nojudgment here, but what are your
biggest fears about travelingand how do you manage them?
Speaker 2 (07:04):
I'll admit I'm a bit of a control freak, so
meticulous planning really helpsme manage my anxiety.
That's very common and planningis like a great coping
mechanism.
I think this prompt.
It acknowledges that travelanxiety it's real, but it also
encourages us to, you know,confront those fears head on.
By identifying andunderstanding our anxieties we
can develop like strategies tomanage them, whether it's
(07:25):
through planning or deepbreathing exercises or simply
acknowledging that it's okay tofeel a little nervous in
unfamiliar situations.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
It's reassuring to know you're not alone in feeling
that way.
Speaking of relatable struggles, prompt number nine hits close
to home.
What's the hardest part aboutcoming home from a long trip?
Ugh, that post-travel slump isreal.
Speaker 2 (07:45):
It really is.
This is definitely a feeling alot of travelers can relate to.
It's like this bittersweetblend of exhaustion, nostalgia
and then just the challenge oflike reintegrating into your
routine.
It's often referred to asreverse culture shock and it can
be like surprisingly tough.
You spend so long embracing adifferent pace of life, new
(08:07):
cultures, exciting experiences,and then suddenly you're back in
your everyday routine.
You're flipping through photoswishing you were back in that
you know bustling marketplace oron that peaceful beach.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
Exactly.
It's like that sudden shiftfrom exhilarating freedom to the
mundane realities of everydaylife can be a real buzzkill.
So how do we deal with it?
Speaker 2 (08:27):
Well, that's where the journaling comes in.
I think by reflecting on thosefeelings, acknowledging the
challenges of reentry, andfinding ways to integrate those
lessons and experiences from ourtravels into our daily lives, I
think we can kind of soften theblow of reverse culture shock,
right?
Maybe it's incorporating a newrecipe you learned abroad into
your weekly meal planning, orfinding ways to bring that sense
(08:50):
of adventure and discovery intoyour everyday life okay.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
So we've reminisced about past trips, we've
envisioned our dream adventuresand we even tackled some common
travel fears.
But now it's time to get realabout responsible exploration,
am I right?
Speaker 2 (09:07):
you're telling me it's not just about, like
ticking off destinations?
Right it's about, you know,engaging with the world in a way
that's mindful and ethical, andthat's where I think
Lestallion's mindful travelingand looking forward with travel
sections really come in.
They're like the compassguiding us toward more
intentional adventures.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
Exactly, and it starts with a really important
question.
The mindful traveling sectionPrompt number two.
What does sustainable travelmean to you?
And this isn't just about, youknow, using reusable water
bottles, although that'sdefinitely important too.
It's more about considering theenvironmental, social and
economic impact of our travels,like asking ourselves how can we
minimize harm and maximizebenefit for the communities we
(09:46):
visit yeah, it's about beingconscious of our footprint,
right.
Precisely, and it can take manyforms, you know, from supporting
, like, locally owned businessesto respecting local customs and
traditions.
I think it's about rememberingthat we're guests in these
places, really, and it's ourresponsibility to leave them
better than we found them.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
So true.
And on that note, prop numberfour what have you learned from
different cultures?
It encourages us to reflect onthe truly transformative power
of those cross-culturalexperiences.
I think sometimes weunderestimate how much travel
can challenge our assumptionsand broaden our perspectives,
all while fostering empathy andunderstanding in a way that few
(10:25):
other things can.
It's like that feeling ofrealizing that your way of doing
things isn't the only way andthat there's just so much to
learn from cultures andperspectives that are different
from our own.
It's about embracing theunknown and being open to having
our worldview challenged oreven expanded.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
OK, I love how these prompts encourage us to look
beyond just the superficialaspects of travel.
You know, it's not just aboutseeing the site, it's about,
like, truly understanding andappreciating the people and
places we encounter.
Speaking of looking deeper, thevery first prompt in looking
forward with travel is all aboutturning those reflections into
action.
What are your travel plans forthe next year?
Speaker 2 (11:04):
It's about taking all those dreams, those lessons
learned, and like channelingthem into concrete plans,
whether it's finally bookingthat trip to Southeast Asia
you've always dreamed of, orchoosing to explore your own
country through a moresustainable lens.
You know, this promptencourages us to translate
inspiration into action.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
It's like that feeling of turning the page on a
new chapter in your traveljournal, a blank page full of
possibilities for adventure andexploration.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
Exactly, and who knows, maybe your next travel
journal entry will be aboutfinally meeting those majestic
steeds hidden away inLestallion's secret stable.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
OK, that's it.
I'm officially adding findLestallion's secret stable to my
travel bucket list.
But, in all seriousness, thisdeep dive into the world of
travel journaling has been likeincredibly eye opening this deep
dive into the world of traveljournaling has been like
incredibly eye opening it reallyhas.
Speaker 2 (12:00):
I think it's a good reminder that travel, at its
core, is about so much more thanjust checking destinations off
a list.
It's about personal growth,connecting with different
cultures, embracing theunexpected and creating memories
that will last a lifetime.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
And what better way to preserve those memories and
the lessons learned along theway than by capturing them in a
travel journal.
Speaker 2 (12:13):
Couldn't agree more.
Until next time, everyone,happy travels and don't forget
your journal.
Ever feel like you come back from a trip with like
a million memories but it's sohard to hold on to that.
You know that travel mindset.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
