I don’t know about how demanding your travel style is but if this baby can withstand the cold of space, the heat of re-entering Earth’s atmosphere, the variable atmospheric pressures of 0g up to a possible 12g of ballistic reentry, well… I’d say the Space pen has my travel needs covered.

Katniss Goes to Paris ~ Travel Writing Prompt
An alternative to this exercise it to spend each day of your trip writing in a different character’s voice. In stead of you writing about how you saw the Eiffel Tower, write as if you were Katniss Everdeen seeing the Eiffel Tower and describing it.
