The Midori Traveler's Notebook is one of my favorite #stationery products. This refillable journal is a fantastic travel companion, and it even came with me when I visited the Traveler's Company store in Japan!

The Lamy 2000 #fountainpen is one of the most iconic pens on the market. The 1960's functionalist design makes the pen museumworthy, and its performance lives up to its design legacy. The hooded gold nib is buttery smooth, and this is a must have for any pen collector!

The Platinum Preppy is a great starter pen for the #fountainpen curious. At under $10, this little guy comes with everything you need to get started. There's no reason not to try this pen!

The Pilot Kakuno is a top #fountainpen recommendation, especially for kiddos looking for their first pen. It's one of the few name brand pens available for under $15, has an excellent nib, and comes with a sturdy click cap that reduces the chances of inky accidents.

The Kaweco Skyline Sport #fountainpen was my very first pocket pen! The mint edition with Diamine's Soft Mint ink is a great combo! The cap threading keeps the pen firmly closed when jangling in pockets, but Kawecols a detachable clip if you're looking for more security!

The TWSBI 580AL is my most used #fountainpen. I often use it with Diamine Pumpkin. The fine nib is juicy and handles the thicker orange ink well, plus the clear pen barrel highlights the ink color. This larger pen has a nice heft and fits comfortably in larger hands.

The Lamy Vista is an excellent starter #fountainpen and one of my very firsts! I love demonstrators (clear pens) for newbies, because it's easy to see exactly how things work. The Vista is reliable, affordable, and has a super comfortable triangular grip.
