I have had jobs in which I traveled a lot, at least 50% of the time. It is certainly doable, and you need to prepare your systems for that kind of work.
What helped me most was email, mobile...
How does one track a @waitingfor when it isn't a person? For example, If I am waiting for a meeting to take place, or waiting for the first of the month when a new procedure goes into effect, or...

To go back to your original question, I handle it by making the next action (@Waiting For) read something like this:

Although your WR checklist is not the GTD standard one, it still seems like you ought to be able to get through it in 90 minutes as long as you remember that in the WR you list what needs to be done,...
I use a rule of thumb that if I can find it in less than 60 seconds, it is filed properly. Don't let the pursuit of perfection in your system distract you from getting important things done.

Of course, you may use subprojects, or anything else that makes you more productive.
For me, I would spend too much time recategorizing subprojects. Is "hire stager for house sale" a sub of...
FWIW, I have found that subprojects make the GTD system much more complicated than the value that they bring.
My analytical mind 'wants' there to be a project hierarchy, but I have found in the...
I use three stacked trays, "In," "Pending," and "Read/Review."

For those on a budget, the GTD book is available at many libraries.
I highly recommend reading it.

FWIW, I use Avery 5202 file folder labels and my laser-jet printer. I have a template doc for printing, and a really easy to find shortcut on my windows desktop for it. When I need a label, I open...
I think you have it right, using your small notebook as a capture tool. Just get it out of your head. Then, process your notebook entries using the GTD workflow (what is it? etc.). During this...
