I guess you never know in what kind of circumstances you will possibly need access to your seed phrase, so maybe an online option and a couple of offline options aare are in order.

1) Online: of course it should not be ebvious that it is a seed phrase and on the other hand it should be simple enough so that you know yourself what the words and the order are.

Maybe as a example:  Set up a website with a couple of pics and enter the seed phrase in single words in the EXIF Data for example.  If you keep your mouth shut that this webpage even exist, this should be quite safe...

2) Offline: You should always consider that you maybe have an accident and have to stay in a hospital for some time, if you are not lucky some one cleans up the house and throws your secret passphrase in the trash or so.

Maybe you should additionally simply write a will and add a closed envelope with your passphrase and deposit it with a lawyer at a courthouse or so, this also makes sure in case you die early the  Bitcoins are not lost....

Just my thoughts about this Smiley
