Using Compact Violet Temperley Filofax as Travel Wallet

I have previously written about using my Compact Violet Temperley as a wallet. I will be in London for several weeks in July and am going to be using it as a travel wallet while I am there.

My passports fit nicely in the back pocket.
My driver’s licence and EU health insurance card fit nicely in the front credit card slots

My money will fit, as it usually does, in the flapped back pocket and zippered outside pocket

Hotel booking to left with directions and on right a to do list (blurred using SeaShore). As I think of things to add I can scribble them in the blank space around the typed list. ‘PS1’ refers to the Proenza Schouler PS1 bag I will be taking with me.

Flight plan, hotel booking and all booking numbers (blurred using SeaShore)

Fold out Tube map with National Rail map on reverse. Full-size booking confirmation and vouchers folded into clear pouches. Visible on left is to do sheet and clear index tab to separate categories closer to the time. I put the clear sheet that comes with Filofaxes on the front and back of my Filos to use as a Dashboard for sticky notes and index list and also protect from rubbing against the covers.
I have printed out the information I will most probably need while I am there and pasted it on a blank note page (easier than writing it out)
I am popping clippings of interesting products and places I would like to visit into the little clear pockets as I go.
