Of all the people I know who’ve gone vegan, I’ve noticed that there is always a powerful, soul arising urge to embrace a more conscious lifestyle. Sometimes it’s for health reasons, sometimes it’s because we feel compassion for sentient life, sometimes it’s because we love the planet, and often, it’s a combination of all of those. We see the total rightness in it, we lunge forward enthusiastically with a passion…
If you’re new to veganism – or have always been curious, but never made the jump – the international campaign known as Veganuary may be the perfect transition period to attempt it. According to their blog, “Veganuary set out to create a movement that would appeal to non-vegans throughout the world.” With more people starting the new year with new trends, new objectives, and newfound motivation, you surely won’t be…

Do you feel that veganism isn’t about eating salads or being on a diet? Do you love a big burger overloaded with sauce, and feel that dessert is part of your everyday routine? Then you should definitely visit the Judgy Vegan in Brussels. Located in the center of the city, on a cute little street of the Marolles district, the Judgy Vegan is the very first restaurant to exclusively serve…
No veggie burger, no pizza and no wraps? What do you offer then? Rasoterra isn’t a typical vegetarian restaurant, this is precisely why it has deserved the title of best vegetarian restaurant in Barcelona. Don’t expect to find veggie burgers, burritos or salad bowls. You will only get creativity and art in the form of healthy dishes. Surprising compositions made of the best local ingredients–that is their leitmotiv. They approach…
Imagine yourself in the urban jungle of Los Angeles. Maybe you enjoy the city, maybe you don’t, but either way, you need to escape it. You can’t venture too far… but you seek serenity, solitude, and nature. An open space, some peace of mind. This is how one might stumble upon The Treehouse. If you’re like me, perhaps you googled “vegan hotels in L.A.” and The Treehouse populated. A vegan…
Sweden is a good country to be vegan in, even though traditionally thoughts of meatballs and pickled herrings come to mind when thinking of the land of Vikings and IKEA. Gothenburg is situated on the west coast and is Sweden’s second biggest city. It is full of vegan and vegetarian restaurants ranging from brunch and fika (coffee and cake) to plant based gastronomy places. One of my favourite vegan restaurants…
I was a little concerned as to how easy it would be to follow a vegan diet on holiday in Montenergo, after hearing from those who had been that it wasn’t particularly vegan friendly. I anticipated living off bread (unbuttered) and potatoes for the week. I was however pleasantly surprised with being able to order tomato based pasta dishes, vegetable stew, roasted veggies, pizza with vegan cheese and dairy free…
Almost exactly a year ago I hung up my backpack and moved to Scotland with dreams of opening a vegan business and micro sanctuary at the forefront of my mind. I’d never lived in Scotland before and the flat we rented was in Perth–a city that, at the time, had no 100% vegan or veggie places listed on HappyCow. They now have a lovely vegan spot called 269 Vegan Cafe…

If you’re interested in…
Torrevieja is well known for its beaches and is one of the most tourist-heavy cities in Spain. However, it is by no means the capital of veganism. There are a few restaurants that offer vegan options, but only one that is 100% vegan, and that’s Giusto Vegan Restaurant. When you walk into Giusto Vegan you instantly get an Italian vibe. They have the typical Toscana chairs and decor made with…
There are so many wonderful things about Thailand, and even more so in the northern city of Chiang Mai. One of those things is a Green Tiger. Tucked in a quiet alley inside the quaint Old City of Chiang Mai, the Green Tiger House, and its plant-based Reform Kafé, is a peaceful oasis that awaits you, where you can enter a delightful world.
