Hi all ...
What paper is this ?

It looks like grocery paper. Khaki in colour. It takes FP very well. It doesn't even bleed thru the other side even tho I used a very wet writer. I notice it takes some time to dry though.

Bought this journal during a holiday trip. 4 3/4" by 5 1/2 "

I have no idea what kind of paper you've got, but those are very nice drawings!

i don't think it's kraft paper. i suspect it's one of those hi-quality papers that we normally see in white or ecru, but that with your journal it's in khaki.

Yep its khaki in colour . Its also smooth (Unlike grocery bags)

4 3/4" by 5 1/2" doesn't appear to be a standard paper size. Comparing the given size against various paper size standards appears to eliminate the following:
ISO 216 (Most of the planet)
JIS (Japan)
ANSI (United States)
Imperial (United Kingdom)

I'm not sure where that leaves us. Sketchbooks with paper other than white don't appear to be readily available, either.

Are there any markings on the book?

says 'Suhuf Art Paper' at the back cover.

When I did a google of "Suhuf Art Paper", I got a few hits which center around a "PT Suhuf Art Paper" company based in Bandung.

Suhuf Art Paper produces a handmade art paper from recycled products. There was no further description of the paper.

The Bandung, Indonesia, business directory gives the company's address as follows:

Nama Usaha/Pemilik : Suhuf Art Paper/ Ade Suprihatini
Alamat : Jl. Terusan Tb. Ismail Gg. Virgo VI Bandung (022) 2500640
Jenis Usaha : Art paper
