When it comes to planning, Hobonichi is a popular brand among planning enthusiasts. With high-quality Tomoe River paper, clear layouts, and a variety of sizes, Hobonichi offers something for everyone. Today, we'll compare two popular Hobonichi calendars: the Hobonichi Techo and the Hobonichi Techo Spring.
Hobonichi Techo
Hobonichi Techo is the original and most popular Hobonichi calendar. It's available in A6 (Original) and A5 (Cousin) sizes. Both are available in English, making it a popular choice among English-speaking users.
Here are some of the benefits of Hobonichi Techo:
- Portable : The A6 Original size is perfect for carrying in a purse or backpack.
- Plenty of space to write : Techo includes a vertical monthly grid that lets you see several months at once, a monthly grid that gives you space to write more detailed plans, and a daily planner.
- High-quality paper: The notebook uses fantastic Tomoe River S paper.
- Lies flat : Planner lies flat when opened
- Inspirational Quotes : I love the quotes at the bottom of each page.
- Large selection of covers : The Hobonichi cover includes pockets for cards, stickers, etc. and two sewn-in bookmarks.
The Hobonichi Cousin is larger than the Original, at A5 size. It's bulkier and heavier. However, it has more writing space and offers weekly planning pages, which you won't find in the Hobonichi Tech Original. You can buy the Cousin Avec, which comes in two thinner six-month notebooks, so you don't have to carry the entire calendar.
Hobonichi Techo Spring
Hobonichi Techo Spring is the April edition of Hobonichi Techo. It's available in A6 (Original) and A5 (Cousin) sizes. Hobonichi Techo Spring is perfect for those looking to start planning for spring. The Spring edition is available only in Japanese.
