You seem a prime candidate for travel addiction. Traveling solo is something I firmly believe everyone should do at least once.

Which North American cites have you been to?

I seek inspiration/getting in a creative mood by nature, books, playing bass and interactions I have with people. Enviorenment is kind of a big deal to, it can go towards something negative or positive depending on my mood. Whenever the pen goes to pad or hands to keyboard though I have trouble organizing my thoughts.

To be fair, the selection is very small. I thought I had disclaimed that in the post I'd made, but no, haha.

Oh, I adore travelling, and I imagine I'll do a vast majority of it alone. Well, that is once I really get to ACTUALLY travel. By that I mean doing more than just driving around in my car aimlessly, however enjoyable that may be.

I know you said you haven't visited many North American cities but there is just as many historical areas rich with culture. I think you are just biased to European cultures in general.

I have no idea where my creative inspiration comes from I can't pin it down to one thing or another. It comes in like a light breeze then my creativity wheels start to churn.

I do notice that it tends to happen when I'm not anywhere close to a place where I can write down these ideas so I have to fight and force myself to remember them by the time I get home or to a place where I can jot down these new ideas before they are lost forever.

My personal experiences inspire a lot of the music that I make and the songs that I write, especially when it comes to lyrics. My moods also affect that, obviously. And interestingly enough, the seasons. All winter long I was writing sad, depressing songs. But now that summer is starting, I'm feeling more and more in need to write bouncy, happy songs. Anyone else have a similar experience?

I've also thoroughly loved what I've seen of Australia, and Mexico (though the latter hardly counts as I was 11 when I was there). I think I'm just disinterested in my own culture.

I become creative through music mainly. I like to write while pumping some sick beats.
