• Just got back from spending 5 beautiful weeks in Rishikesh, India! Just finished up my blog post for this trip- hope y’all can check it out 🙂 cheers! NAMASTE

  • Haven’t updated in QUITE some time!
    I’ve taken a major break with traveling… and the feeling is starting to feel normal ( AH ! )
    Although I AM headed over to Munster Indiana area this Thurs to check out Tiger Lily Cafe. Indiana might not sound too exciting compared to the places I’ve seen last year… yet I’m still so so excited to go b/c I…[Read more]

  • VEG FOOD FEST Toronto over the weekend was incredible! So glad it was outdoors AND indoors and super accommodating with free samples and entertainment. Thankful I got a chance to volunteer for the Direct Action Everywhere tent. Got a lot of vegetarians/vegans to sign up and potentially become activists! Until every animal is free! 🙂

  • @welljuicery here in Toronto at a Vegan social and SOOOOO many goodies to enjoy! Networked like mad.. and even had a lovely convo with “The Badass Vegan” John Lewis. Good vibes <3 <3

  • So excited to get started on my TORONTO travel post!
    I spent 11 days in Toronto a couple of weeks ago ~ went back to Chicago for only one week and knew I HAD to move to Toronto. And here I am … day 5 of living in Toronto and very very happy 🙂 I want to travel to Montreal soon for my first time!

    ALSO met an awesome activist… he’s a keeper.…[Read more]

    • Toronto rocks! Keep eating plants and fighting for animals!

    • Okay, I saw on Instagram that you’re living in Toronto now all of a sudden, and have been waiting for the update on how that big change came about! Yay!!

    • Welcome to Canada!! Although I’m biased to the west coast, definitely go to Montreal!! And they usually have a huge veg fest in Toronto in Sept 🙂

      Would be interesting to know about Anita’s trial from someone on the ground… I’ve just been reading all the media hype about it.

      • @jenns I can’t wait for Montreal!!! I met a friend in Central America who insists I visit 🙂 And YES def going to Veg Fest here in Toronto 🙂

        And Anita was at our March for the animal sanctuaries this past Sunday- it was great to see her still supportive, camera in hand and staying positive. The trail is going to be a long long process no doubt!…[Read more]

  • Mmmmm fresh watermelon juice here in Toronto! Met an awesome RAW vegan and foot reflexologist today! Watermelon juice and foot rub?! YES PLEASE #whatvegansdrink

  • My T-Shirt came in the mail today! Definitely rockin this in Toronto ~ for the Toronto Pig Save street blockade! Looks like there will be over 200 activists in attendance. Very very excited 😀

  • Created an Instagram account devoted solely to veganism! Follow my journey 🙂

  • YAY! My first official post is up today ~ all about sweet home CHICAGO and @upton’s breakroom

    Very excited to leave for Toronto, CA for my very first time next week, August 4th!

    FRIEND ME I’m a newbie 😀

    • That seems like a big step! Definitely want to try living somewhere else someday, too. Hope all goes well on your adventure.

    • I can’t wait to visit Chicago some day. Still haven’t been to Canada either!

      • Let me know if you ever make it to Chicago! We’ll have to go to Upton’s or maybe Handlebar ~ so many good spots! CHEERS 🙂

        • Will do! When is a good time of the year to visit in your opinion?

          • @shannon actually NOW is truly the best time. I’m a summer gal… so it all depends on what ya like. Like my fav months of the year for me are June, July and August 😀 Chicago summers are the best! There’s like a different festival every weekend!

    • Went to school in T.O. The CN tower is awesome! (But I’m a nerd, lol)… Also try to catch a baseball game if you can! You can usually get pretty cheap seats in the 500 level

    • I <3 Toronto! Some of my very best friends live there. Be sure to try vegan poutine, if you have a chance. It's a quebecoise dish made vegan by substituting mushroom gravy for beef and Daiya non-dairy cheese to replace mozzarella, atop fresh-cut french fries. It's a delicious mess! Not healthy at all! 😉

      • @chantal Thank you! Vegan Poutine sounds absolutely amazzzing! I definitely consider myself a comfort food vegan! Pasta and “hamburgers” are my fav! Haha 😛

        • @miakellyvegan ENJOY TORONTO!!! There is so much to see and eat in our city!!

          If you need any tips please don’t hesitate to ask!!!

          • @codyk Yessss awesome! Yay I saw your video all about it and I am majorly impressed! I hear it’s like Chicago… but better. hehe. I also hear there’s a LOT of vegan activism in your city which makes me happy. I’m actually traveling with a couple of activists and we’re going to the street blockade on August 6th in involvement with Toronto Pig…[Read more]

            • @miakellyvegan Toronto Pig Save is a great organization doing a lot of great things .I hope you have a good time in Toronto and please eat as much Vegan food as possible. There are a ton of places to eat at. 🙂

  • Hello happy healthy friendly VEGAN TRAVEL WORLD!

    Of all the vegan posts I can possibly start off with, I’m going to start with my experience in good ol’ Portland USA!
    I am 100% a Chicago gal. Born and raised in the burbs of Chi.. I spent the past 6 years of my life working in downtown Chicago (& 2 of them living in Logan Square area of…[Read more]

    • I love that place!! I had the same urge to buy everything in the store!!

    • We got to try some of their treats at Vegan Beer Fest. SO delicious!!

    • Isn’t Portland the total best? Last month was my very first time in town, and with @shannon‘s help, I maximized my vegan food intake while we were there! I’d love to get to see the Petunia shop in person next time I’m in town, the snacks we tried at VBFF were incredible.

      Is your home base still Chicago with the new job? I worked a combination of…[Read more]

    • Awesome post and congrats on the new job! I will be traveling to Portland in one week. This will be my first time in Portland as a vegan. I am only going to be there for a few days. Any suggestions on the spots i MUST hit? 🙂
