Get a Travel Journal

How do I get a Travel Journal?

There are two types of Travel Journals to chose from that you can purchase online.

1. Travel Journal with automatic tracking

The automatic Travel Journal can only be used with one of the following Telestial SIM cards or services. Your trip is automatically plotted for you on a map, powered by Google, based on wherever you use your phone from. Every time you make a call or send a text message, your location is recorded on your map. An automatic entry is also added to your journal.

• Global Premium
• Global Travel
• Home and Roam
• Passport
• Passport Plus
• Passport Lite
• SIMple Calling

Purchase one of these SIM card or services and follow the instructions during the purchase process to set up your Travel Journal.

2. Travel Journal with manual tracking

The manual Travel Journal can be used with your existing mobile phone service provider. Automatic tracking is not available. You need to manually update your location either on the website or by sending a text message from your existing mobile phone. Please note: you cannot upgrade a manual Travel Journal to an automatic Travel Journal.
