Inspiration...Finding It!!! Travel

As an artist im in the business of being inspired, so I have to find things that turn me on !!! For me there is Nothing like travel to really inspire new feelings, which later become songs, So I have been traveling in Europe for 6 weeks to recharge creative battery...been in London, Paris and Rome. I spent 5 days in Paris...it was wonderful. My favourite day was spent hanging out in the artist square in Montmatre...I realized as I watched them sketch, I was just doing the same...Sketching in words. Getting impressions down that will later become songs...I loved sitting on the steps of the Sacre Cour there was a man with a wonderful voice singing loads of great covers, all my favourites...this was a great chance to get inspired. So travel for me becomes like a fresh canvas, of new creative thoughts and feelings, sketches of moments that turn me on... enough to want too craft them into songs. Any conversation or moments, I may later put my writers mind on...Yeh Paris Rocks...its got this kinda be yourself Vibe....everwhere you go its full of life, the cafes, clubs and streets...when im in Rome, I get loads of attention from the men....which is great for songwritting, you know where there is energy...you know theres a song !!! and where there is a artist, there got to be a muse !!! of cause sooner or later...gotta write a song called "caio bella".....
Rome was really hot everyone had left town...so i kinda got to see Rome in a new way, I lived in Rome from the age of 21 to 24, and worked as an actress. So I like to go and reflect on how far I've come and where Im going...I sat wrote some ideas on the Piazza Venetia,before leaving....as I drove out of rome to the airport...the cab driver was playing the Rolling Stones who originally worked outta of london, actually near my parents home,,,..and I knew I was heading home to L.A....back to the canyons where a lot of great music was created...I felt really great...you know because being a singer songwriter, any experience can become a song !!! and I have lots of new experiences to write about....Thanks to everyone I met on my trip round europe, it was great to meet and share some inspiring moments...Zoe
