About the Book

A Fantastic Gift for any Home Owner

The journal belongs to the home. The current owners have custodianship of it and the pleasure of completing one chapter. When they leave the journal is left as a gift to the new owners.

The journal's purpose is to provide a tangible link between the current owners and those who have previously made the house their home-giving a peek into its history, and a glimpse into the stories of those who have loved the house in their turn.

The journal contains chapters for each owner to complete. They contain space for:

  • Your family name
  • The dates you moved in and out
  • Why you moved here
  • Improvements or changes you made to the house and garden
  • The thing you liked best about living here
  • Best memories and memorable events
  • Why you are leaving the house
  • Where you are moving to
  • Plenty of blank pages for photographs and keepsakes.

The journal is a perfect gift for house warmings and weddings, and would be equally appreciated as a birthday or Christmas present-for someone else or yourself.

Team it with its companion journal Our Homes -the journal that stays with you as you move from house to house, allowing you to build a history of your own family properties. (Also available on Amazon).


About the Author: Simone has lived in 12 houses in her life and in each one, as she would redecorate and peel back the layers of paint and wallpaper, she would wonder about the families that had lived there. The idea for both journals crystallised when she and her husband were ripping up the bathroom floor of their current home, built in the 1930s, under which they found an old newspaper. It led her to write a small note for future owners-motivated at the time by being 8 1/2 months pregnant and wanting to pass on how happy she was to be setting up home in this lovely house. Simone put the note under the new floor. She then began to think how nice it would be to have a more tangible link to people who had lived in the house before and this was the seed that led to her developing the idea for the two journals. Currently Simone is a Senior Business Analyst with American Express, lives in Sussex with her wonderful husband, their two lovely young sons and 'Captain Barnacles' the neurotic goldfish.
