I have a secret obsession — the Midori Traveler’s Notebook. It is a beautiful build-it-yourself notebook with a leather cover from Japan. Using a series of rubber bands, you can “bind” in an assortment of smaller notebooks for drawing, writing, and calendar along with pockets and zipper pouches to contain smaller loose items. The attention to detail in the Midori Traveler’s Notebook down to the paper stock makes it a truly drool-worthy item. Seeing all the fountain pen inks on the paper stock really set my heart aflutter. The leather cover with one paper notebook and cotton case sell for $59.95 on MyMaido. So, I’ll keep drooling.

I’ve had several people ask if the JetPens Lihit Lab Teffa Bag in size A5 that I posted about a few weeks ago is large enough to hold an iPad. The proof is in the pudding, so to speak. While it fits height-wise, the iPad is too wide by about an inch.
The A4 version would fit with room to spare but it might be too much room. Anyone want to try it out and post your results?
