While Stephanie has been floatingaround Albuquerque, I've been back in Atlanta looking for new ways to feed my wanderlusting soul. I started with awesome twitter chats where I've made new friends and come up with great ideas (chat with us here!). Now I've moved on to that "stress-relieving" activity that's all the rage. Yes, I've been coloring in coloring books. Not just any coloring books, mind you, but two travel-themed books: Secret Paris and Secret Tokyo. Let me tell you, it's a wonderful way to pass the time.
Secret Paris and Secret Tokyo
My friend gave me the Secret Paris book a few weeks back, so when I saw Secret Tokyo in a shop today, I had to bring it home. Having been to both Paris and Tokyo, I was thrilled to start coloring in cityscapes and souvenirs in the colors that I remembered from my trips.
The author that makes the Secret Paris and Secret Tokyo books also makes a Secret New York, so you have 3 beautifully detailed cities covered right there. I've found multiple more travel-themed coloring books below. I think they make an amazing gift for your favorite traveler! They're absolutely perfect for when you're daydreaming at home, and I can't wait to take one on a plane to pass the time on a short flight or to keep me busy until bedtime on a long-haul flight. Coloring in the City of Lights on the way to Paris? What better way to get excited about the beautiful colors and architectural details that make that city so unique!
