My youngest daughter headed out on her first major - without parents - journey.
She left the wilds of our Northern Canadian home
and is now in Europe
where her and a friend are travelling for the next couple of months.
Before she left I made her a journal
She wanted the pages to be different sizes and messy - just my style!
I also included a few pockets throughout the book
I miss her,
but I hope she has a wonderful adventure
What a beautiful book, I'm sure it will be the first of many wonderful adventures for her! Hope all is going well so far! At least you have a little tinky to keep you company!
