They say that the best thing you can ever purchase is not a good, or a service, but an experience. We’re inclined to agree. Sure, purchasing beautiful and expensive clothing could be more than worth it, but the experience of a great holiday, a fantastic experience in another country, and totally submerging into another culture is all something that will not fray, like with colors running in the wash.
For this reason, as time is what makes up our lives, experiences are considered to be some of the most enjoyable, thought-provoking, and profound journeys you could ever invest in. Retaining the memories is something we sometimes forget to do and can be greatly fulfilling in the future. But how can we achieve that? What if you only have old photographic printouts, or journal entries with coffee-stained paper?
Is it worth taking some time to jot down your experiences, thoughts and ideas outside of just keeping them in your mind? This way, you may be able to share your best moments with more clarity and consistency. In this post, we believe we can help you achieve exactly that…
Picture Restorations
A photograph and picture restoration can ensure that your snaps and printed photos are properly treated so that damage is removed and the rich vibrancy of the image is as clear as day. This can help you better restore the memories of past experiences you enjoyed before everything is cleanly uploaded to apps like Instagram.
This way, you may be able to relive those experiences, or feel inspired to head to the same locations once more.
Digitizing Writings
It’s not uncommon for people to write journal entries during their vacations, and do so in a pensive, thought-out manner. It would be a shame to lose these, then, which is why it can be so worthwhile to digitize these writings so you have access them whenever, serving as testaments to that particular period in your life, something you can revisit at any time.
With note taking apps like Evernote or simply scanning them using your camera and placing these scans in your cloud drive account can make a big difference – allowing you to keep the wisdom and insight you had at the time, using it for future adventures.
Crafting Art
Sometimes, documenting a travel experience is not a one-to-one explanation of what you’re doing and what you had for breakfast. It can sometimes be that you’ve written poetry, or took an easel and set of watercolors to the beach to paint the gorgeous landscape in front of you.
Often, expressing yourself in line with the world in front of you can help you thrive and feel better in yourself, possibly moving into the future with a sense of ability and possibility. Crafting art in this manner may even help you retain certain emotions, thoughts, and perspectives that could never be found within a photograph alone.
With this advice, we hope you can continue to retain the memories of your most wondrous travel experiences.
