Last August, I toured in Norway with my wife and 2 of my kids. Gorgeous country, impressive landscapes, wonderful people, great food…and a lot to draw. I tried a brand new sketchbook from Seawhite of Brighton which I liked a lot. 128 pages of a rather robust and polyvalent 130gsm paper. Not necessarily the most appropriate for big washes of watercolor, but suitable for almost every technique. 
And a nice A5 format which i can easily take in my satchel.
