To each their own but as someone with a terrible long term memory I find that pictures and journaling absolutely help me look back into the years and not have terrible voids of mind.
Also do take pictures of the mundane and everyday life, I actually started leaving a go pro in the corner of the room during lazy Sunday pancakes, or school runs, or occasional in the evening to catch interesting conversations with my kids when they are more mellow just before bedtime.
When I was younger I only really had pictures of travel and holidays and days/nights out. There is so much beauty in everyday stuff around the home and around your city. Your daily 'routine', is as much part of your life as the interrail you did in your 20's.
I like the idea of just having a GoPro running as a habit, but do you find that you collectively change your behaviour, knowing that you're being observed?
At least on a GoPro, you can apparently turn off the blinking red 'recording' LED.
