A6 notebook + mechanical pencil are an indispensable part of my travel kit. i always worry that i will lose my phone at some point so important addresses are written there.
pen and paper can be very useful in places with a different language/writing system. there was a time i looked for a specific product that i had a difficulty describing. fortunately, i met a local who can speak english and asked him to write down the local name of the said product. it can be done on the phone but i find that older people are more comfortable writing with a pen and paper.
for everyday, i use my phone s native notes app for quick jots but still carry with me a notebook and pencil.

i created a community for Philippine travel. something i hope will be a combination of howtogettherePH and other travel-centric groups (directions, itineraries, packing lists, food and pasalubong reccos and other tips). but will not be limited to travel within the country, will also include travel advice for trips abroad (deals for exchanging currency, best season to visit etc).
looking forward to your stories.
