VekoLogisch in Amsterdam

While it might just sound like a funny word, “squatting” is a fascinating sub-culture of The Netherlands since the 80’s. In the past, vacant buildings could legally be inhabited by basically anyone that felt like claiming them as their own. This movement was started by young people in Holland, unable to find or afford other housing options. They’d basically just walk into an abandoned building and set up shop. And…

Feeling Hungry In Hungary? Try Napfényes Restaurant

In Budapest, Hungary, visitors can feast their eyes on miles of magnificent historic architecture, and when they’ve hit their limit on sightseeing, traditional Hungarian cuisine is around every corner. The sights and smells of these meat-heavy feastful foods, however, may offer little solstice to vegans or vegetarians. Thankfully, there is a growing counter culture cuisine movement that caters to plant-based tastes. My favorite of these up-and-coming choices is Napfényes Restaurant…

Entering Into The World Of Vegan Sushi

“What the hell is a maki…” Those were my first thoughts when I arrived at El Buda Profano in Arequipa, Peru. I feel a bit bashful admitting it, but I am no sushi connoisseur. Well, I wasn’t, at least. Traveling through Peru brought a wide range of experiences. It brought me everything from a serious case of traveler’s flu to a serious case of spiritual awakening (long story). But maybe most…

It is a city of new styles and old masters, with shops, palaces, green parks and beautiful museums like the Mauritshuis. And above all, it is a city where you can eat great vegan food.

Sampling The Vegan Scene In Sheffield

One of the greatest things about traveling full-time is meeting all kinds of amazing people from all over the world. While on a year-long backpacking trip through Latin America, I met a British guy named Julien and we hit it off, traveling with each other through Bolivia before parting ways in Peru.
