Yup I always sketch while traveling. I used to bring everything and the kitchen sink. lol now I do what you suggested-sketchbook, a few colored pencils, Microns. I learned too, out of necessity, to sketch quickly and add color if needed, later. I also include tickets, receipts, maps etc in my travel journal.

That sounds perfect! I know the “everything but the kitchen sink” phase too well! Traveling light really frees you up, and adding tickets, maps, and little mementos brings is such a lovely idea.
