Remember Your Vacation Better
Photographs can help us remember the highlights of our vacation, but there are other ways to keep your vacation memories alive and vivid.
Robert’s tips to help you remember your vacation vividly are condensed here:
Carry a pen and small pocket notebook: Take the time to relax and write down what you experience at each site.
Document your five senses: the sounds, smells, sights (photos), touch and tastes of the place. If you depend on just your photos, you only get one of those five senses.
Document the other three sense: The visceral sense, or how you feel in your gut. There is also the clerestory sense, which is how open or light the place feels. Finally, there is the kinescopic sense, meaning the sense of movement.
These are very good ideas to help you remember more than just how things looked. You spent a lot of money on this vacation, do everything you can to remember how it felt to experience that new place. You deserve the most vivid memories.
