How should I log my travels? Camera to use?
I'm going to travel around Europe and I was wondering what is the best way to log my travels. I've met lots of people who have done world trips but it is as if they never traveled because there's not a photo or journal to be seen in their house. They end up storing all their photos on a computer and not doing anything with them. I'd like to think of creative ways to log my adventures. There are a lot of different methods:
1) Blog (which I would update with my smart phone - I hear bringing a laptop while traveling is risky)
2) Twitter (microblogging method where I can post photos and thoughts of my trip)
3) Postcards (a creative option to handwritten journals - ex: different postcard for different city)
4) Handwritten journal (traditional, don't have to be consumed with electronics all the time)
5) Video taping (could vlog to youtube)
6) Instagram (snapshots of what I'm doing and where I'm)
7) iPhone Camera (to instantly upload photos to blog or videos to youtube)
8) Instant Polaroid Camera (to instantly print out photo to attach to handwritten journal entries)
9) DSLR Camera (for really nice quality images - although I have no idea what I'd do with these during the trip. This would be good for AFTER the trip where I can upload to blog or print out to frame)
IDEAS ANYONE?!
You lost me with your "I hear".
If I were you, I'd just use your smart phone. I've been traveling and photographing for a long time. If you aren't into being a photographer than you should enjoy your travels and not worry about "evidence."
I would get a nice small bridge camera. My DSLR is just too heavy to haul around but that is just me. I have a canon G10 and a canon T3i. I guess your phone could be a back up.

Shoot all you like during your travel then print your favorites when you reach home.
- Which camera is better: An old General Imaging x500 Digital Camera or an iPhone 7 front camera? It looks like an iPhone only offers 7 MP while this camera boasts 16 MP but this camera is so old and looks worse at least on its own screen. I'm confused
- What lense should I use that is not too expensive and for a beginner? And also a good camera? So recently I've been taking pics on my iPhone and I love taking pics since I was so young so I want to know if I'm really that serious about photography and not waste a lot of money on it without making sure.
- What gives better quality of a picture: Iphone 4s camera or normal digital camera? Please need an advice soon thank you guys I've gol Olympus u1060 it has 10 megapixels and i'm not a fan actually of this camera
- What camera should I use for recording video? Any camera's that are affordable please list some great quality affordable cameras that shot better than my cellphone (iPhone 5s)
