I am so happy with my blank paged Moleskine. I had mentioned that I wanted to start drawing and doodling again so my jackalope sister made sure I would be able to use my creative side when travelling these distant lands. She didn’t only get me the notebook, she also made my friends and colleages write little goodbye’s and greetings on the first pages of it. And then, of course, she signed it herself – the most graphically perfect way one can sign a notebook.

So now, whenever I want to relax, I doodle. And whenever I miss somebody, I take a look at their words and funny little drawings. The big pirate ship with the text “DON’T GET KIDNAPPED!” from Afrah is probably the best one. And Josies self-portrait, of course. haha
