Things that inspire you

• Diffrent culture, when traveling I found that seeing how differently people lived was rather inspirational. Grounding me by making me realise how lucky I am.
• Coffee, always gets my brain juices flowing. 
• Getting away from work, when i take a break from everything this can spark ideas etc at that point or when i go back to it.
