Travelling Journal

[sonia_simone]

I think five is enough for us to start, and we can always pick up a name or two down the line. I've PMed everyone asking for snail addresses.

 

Here are my thoughts. Wise ones who have traveled this journey before me, feel free to chime in.

 

- Include the snail addresses in the notebook itself so they are easy to find. Agree?

- Arrange the sequence of participants to minimize time in the mail, trying not to send the notebook across the U.S. multiple times, for example. We do have that great jump over the pond, to add a little zest to these things.

- It would be a nice gesture for each US participant to throw an extra couple of stamps in the envelope, allowing said stamps to collect so that the person who sends it overseas can get some assistance. (Does that make sense?) 2 oz. from the U.S. to Ireland is, I think, 1.70, and 3 oz. if 2.55.

- My postal scale is regrettably optimistic--can someone tell me what a Moleskine cahier weighs, in a manila envelope?

 

What am I forgetting?

BTW....does anyone know what happened to the website with the scans of Jose's journals. I can not seem to access it anymore.

Has ANES010 surfaced yet since I misdirected it ?

 

I'm still feeling a bit stupid about it

ANES 013 is heading west today to Matt!

Southpaw...

 

Any word on 013? After Matt it should have headed my way...

[sonia_simone]

Kirk, thanks for the update! I am all aflutter.

 

So are the rest of you using smaller moleskines? I imagined the Joseanes ones were the larger Cahiers, but I gather not. Well anyway, I like to do things BIG.

[macthemaths]

I would love to be in on this great idea.

 

Any chance I could be added or recieve a u/n p/w please?

 

Many thanks,

 

Chris

[sonia_simone]

Chris, your timing is very good--the journal is on its way to Ireland.

 

Ruaidhri, can you kindly detour it to Chris before it comes back to the States?
