Tutorial
Our travel journal template is packed with features to accommodate every kind of traveler. Not only can you save multiple trips to the same destination, but you can also have “wishlists” of places to research in advance. We also included a dedicated place for you to keep your memories while traveling.
Main View
When you first open the template you’ll see that the page is divided into two sections.
Travel Destinations
This area shows all of your travel destinations in one place. You can view it with different filters like “upcoming”, “wishlist”, “visited”, and “all” by clicking next to “Travel Destinations”. Each destination shows up as a gallery card with the city, country, and trips you’ve taken there.
All about my adventures/My Trips
At the bottom of the main template, there is a list of trips you’ve taken or will take in the future. This is a handy way to see all of your trips in one place! These trips are also linked to the destination so you can also access them from the travel destinations.
How to add a New Destination and New Trip:
The main things you’ll want to add while using the templates are new destinations and new trips.
New Destination:
- Click “new” within “travel destinations” to add a new city.
- You’ll see that you can click a “Template: Travel Destination”.
