Details, details, details

Want to return from your next vacation with lasting memories instead of just a few snapshots? Resolve to start keeping a travel journal. Jot down your experiences, and you will capture forever those little details, humorous moments, and vivid sensations that are too often quickly forgotten. For years to come, you will be able to hear the Australian accent of that barmaid in Adelaide, savor that lemon gelato from Rome, and feel the biting Icelandic wind on your cheek. And if ever you are planning an itinerary for a return visit, you’ll have the names of your favorite restaurants, hotels, and sights at your fingertips.
