My Union Journal

It is a great idea to keep your travel journal online.  Maybe you only take one vacation per year, or perhaps you go on many.  Maybe you are a constant business traveler and basically live out of a suitcase.  Regardless of your travel habits, it is a great idea to keep a journal of your adventures.  When recording information about a trip in your journal, make sure this information is always included:

1. Who was involved.
2. Date (with MyUnionJournal you will login to the exact date - it makes this simple).
3. Name / City you traveled to.
4. Reason for travel (vacation, family reunion, business, etc.).
5. Events that took place (the story or account of the experience).
6. Special memories of your trip.
7. Attach pictures to your journal from the trip.

Remember to try and record your information about your trip as soon as possible.  It is amazing how quickly we forget the little details. 

Some great tips on photos to upload to your journal from your world travels. 

There are many different types of photographs you might want to save to your journal, depending on the trip. If you are on vacation with your family, obviously a group photo should be saved to your journal.  Maybe you visit all four parks in Disney World and you have a photo of you in front of all the parks’ signature points of interest (i.e. Cinderalla’s Castle); upload these photos.  Maybe you are visiting your grandparents for Christmas.  Put in pictures of your grandparents as they will be precious to you when you no longer have your grandparents.

You might want to include pictures of your children jumping in a pool, your favorite restaurant to eat at on vacation, or take a quick snapshot of the hotel/condo you are staying in so you can remeber from year to year whether or not you really liked the place. 

The objective is to capture the travels of your life in your online journal by combining photographs, and written memoirs. By recording your travels in this way, you will have a precious gift for a lifetime. You will be preserving memories, and it will become more valuable with each passing year.  Register With MUJournal Today.
