European churches have the finest inspiration for those who crave a wanderlust attitude, or are into designing, or even just want a whole new perspective.  I’ve been infactuated with the photography from MisterPeter! on his Flickr account–with hundreds of photos from European tours, with an emphasis on churches.  They are so beautiful and incredibly breath-taking.  They have even inspired me to coordinate some jewelry picks from 1stdibs…enjoy!
