As an Interior Decorator, I find design inspiration everywhere – nature, food, architecture, the fashion runway, designer showrooms and market events, and definitely from my travels. I don’t get to travel as much as I would like, especially as a business owner, but when I do, I am always inspired by the beautiful surroundings and discovering new places and things.
My last trip to England and France was very inspiring. The beautiful countryside of England was a great stress reliever just driving through and seeing the beautiful rolling hills and pastures. Then there’s the wonderful architecture in Paris; definitely wonderful to see in person.
Here are a few pictures from my trip
The town of Marlborough in England.

I’ve always wanted to ride a double decker bus!

Looking at these pictures from this trip definitely is putting me in the mood for another trip really soon. I’ve already started my “Europe Fund”, where I am saving for a trip to London and Paris next summer with the kiddos. This time I will be visiting some of the famous flea markets of Paris, and Versailles, I can’t wait! That’s what I call inspiration!

this is awesome!
That looked like an awesome trip! I get inspired when i see new things happening on my site,and peoples reactions to it…
I wish I had enjoyed that trip with you. Oh, wait, I just did!!! Thanks for sharing!!! Funny, as I was looking at the pictures, I was inspired by other things, like Superman (in the phone booth!). I guess we can be inspired by just about everything!!
Those are great pics…looks like a great trip! I can see how this would inspire you for your interior design business, that is awesome! I get inspired by nature and other positive people.
It looks like you had an amazing trip. I wish I could ride in a double-decker bus, that would be cool. Thank you for sharing your trip with me. I love seeing photos of new places.
Great photos – I’ve been to all those places
Really brought back some memories – esp of the 10 yrs I lived in Amsterdam, which is a place that will always inspire me.
Thanks for the inspiration. Looks like a great trip. I am inspired by architecture, too. I’m also inspired by nature. Color, line, and shape… it is so varied. That is inspiring.
Looks like such a fun trip..
Nice shots, V! I really enjoyed watching those pics of your travel.
Looks like you had a great trip. My children, the two and four-legged ones, inspire me! We have fun and even travel together, the two-legged ones!
My husband and I will be travelling to Italy next year. I can’t wait for this trip. I’ve never been there. The history and the beautiful cities will be wonderful to see in person.
What inspires me? My children. I am always driven to ensure that they live in a world where limitations don’t exist and dreams can come true. The difficulty there is that at times that harsh realities of this world can intrude on my attempts. Nonetheless, I don’t let it get me. I keep trying, because I am also inspired by the ability of the human will to persist and succeed in the face of insurmountable odds. To hear how others push past limitations that have been imposed on them is always so motivating. So I guess I am inspired by life itself.
Lovely post Veronica,
If you keep that wonder child spirit you once had, anything will inspire you.
Love tis post! We visited London for a couple of days on our way home from Spain. Taking a vacation, even if it’s a staycation can be very inspiring for me. Reading your blog is also ultra inspiring!
Gorgeous pictures! I love to travel:) You should check out Italy if you have never been..That has been my favorite European country so far:)
Thank you everyone for your great comments! It really was a fun trip. I am definitely inspired by all of you.
Veronica Solomon all the collection are awesome…
Cheers!!
