GOASIAPLUS July 2018
Our July issue explores the Pearl of the Orient, Penang through David Loh's eyes in tribute for Georgetown World Heritage Day. Tracing back the past, we rediscover Old Klang Road as today's cultural and food center besides modern-day travel journalling (or 80s scrapbooking). Also, see our take on Char Kway Teow versus Pad Thai in our travel food corner.

Travel Journaling 101<br />
THE WORLD HAS SINCE MOVED FROM SCRAPBOOKING IN THE 80S, TO<br />
BLOGGING IN THE LATE 90S AND LESS THAN A DECADE LATER, WE ARE BACK<br />
TO SCRAPBOOKING AGAIN – ONLY THIS TIME IT IS AN ELEVATED VERSION OF<br />
THE 80S SCRAP N’ STICK. WE CALL IT TRAVEL JOURNALING.<br />

Travel<br />
101<br />
Creating a travel journal requires 3<br />
main ingredients: travel, mementos<br />
(for scrapbooking) and a fancy<br />
journal. A popular journal of choice these<br />
days are the Traveler’s Company’s popular<br />
Traveler’s Notebooks which feature a<br />
supple, genuine leather cover and elastic<br />
bands to allow interchanging journals, and<br />
the ability to hold up to 3 journals at a<br />
time. The journals are plain – allowing you<br />
room to be creative with decorating – and<br />
come in a variety of blank, grid and dotted.<br />
Other accessories that can be included<br />
in your journal are decorative metal, leather<br />
pen holders, clear plastic card holders,<br />
zippered pouches and even kraft folders<br />
for holding various paper mementos like<br />
ticket stubs, postcards and foldable maps.<br />
