I ordered this journal for myself just to have something to write in over my Christmas holidays. I was highly surprised when I opened it to discover gorgeous leather binding with hand-made paper on the inside; higher quality than anything I've been able to find in stores. It's a perfect size for travel, can fit easily into a carry on or purse, and makes writing into a luxurious experience. This is a top of the line item.

When I first started looking for a journal, I was utterly lost. I didn't know what I wanted or what I was willing to pay for. The choices are seemingly infinite, and it's hard to know until you begin to work with a journal whether or not it will stand the test of time and meet your needs. This journal is wonderful. It's bound so that, when opened, it lies relatively flat, making it easy to write in. The hand made paper has character, with no two pieces exactly alike, yet the writing surface is generally smooth enough to sketch on. These journals are literally so beautiful that I was almost afraid to write in them for fear of messing them up, but don't let that stop you! I have this journal as well as the maroon cover Lama Li. I like this one because of its style and durability. I read another review that described the journal well by saying, "They seem so exotic, you can imagine yourself in Egypt or Burma scribbling away about the day's adventures." That's very true. The maroon cover journal is a bit less expensive, yet contains extra pages. Both are worth the money, but this one's my favorite.
