Since some of the shops in Shopee Philippines that I “pasabuy” to buy Hobonichi products have closed down, and the shipping for a Hobonichi notebook going to the Philippines is expensive, I decided to say good-bye to Hobonichi for now. I will try something new next year.
I’ve been using Traveler’s Notebook insert since 2023 as a trial for journaling. Although, I’m a bit getting used to it, so I decided to buy the #19 Regular Size Weekly Planner. The layout has the same as Hobonichi Weeks.
However, I am also refusing to use this because of how many pages it has. It’s not like Hobonichi Weeks that you can use the book for one whole year. I like it because it is undated but still, you’ll be buying how many inserts for the whole year.
So, I also decided to give support to our local journals and planners.
Limelight 365 days A5
This dated journal is hard bound, A5 size, and weekly. The downside of this journal is the paper with only 80gsm. It has other features too like expense tracker, mood tracker, personality test, monthly calendar and it comes with different colors. I’m planning to do junk journaling with this notebook.
CNS Design’s Design your life
This Design Your Life is very pretty, and it has made your life easier because the pages are already designed. This A5 journal as well as a planner has so many features too. Click here for more info.
I’m going to use this journal for memory keeping and daily short journaling. Since I’m a busy person, sometimes, I don’t have time. I’m already going to do daily junk journaling with my 365 days journal, I don’t need more work.
There you have it, my 2025 Techo Kaigi.
