I have found wordpress ok for my needs. I used a combination of an app on my iPhone and a cheap windows notebook.
You can set different privacy settings to achieve what you want (so i have a public blog from a previous trip and other stuff i keep private). I just have a free account.
I also use a combination of notes on my iphone and a pen/small note book in real time. And then write what i want afterwards.
I also support your ‘primarily for me’ thinking. I love to be able to look back at stuff I did later and enjoy the memory, and the danger otherwise is you don’t do your trip for you, but for the story you want to tell others, which seems a loss to me. If having written it you think it might have wider interest/benefit you can then share. I am just writing up my latest short trip and will decide at the end whether to share at all, and if so, whether just to mates via my Facebook account, or here.
Let us know where you end up (and why).
