More About Me

Reasons why I prefer to eat vegetarian or vegan:

Because you can be healthy without hurting the planet and animals. As simple as that.

I joined HappyCow Members Community because:

Happy Cow has "saved my life" countless times when travelling. When planning a trip, I systematically check out what restaurants will be able to feed me something interesting.

Here are some places I've been that I liked... and places that I would like to visit one day:

I liked pretty much every single destination I visited : Peru, Bolivia, Brazil, Thailand, Paris, Brussels, Amsterdam, Germany, the US (particularly New Orleans, NYC and San Francisco), Guatemala, Costa Rica, Mexico, and Canada (the Atlantic, Toronto and the Rockies in particular). I would like to visit the whole world, but if I have to name a few places, I would say Argentina, China, Turkey and India.

Some of my favorite veg*n foods include:

Nooch, vegan cheese and mock meats, French fries, chips, soba noodles, tahini, walnuts, pistachios, vegan lasagna, Thai soups and curries, burritos, very spicy food and soy milk.

Here are some books, movies, magazines, and my favorites that I would recommend to other HappyCow members:

Forks Over Knives, John Robbins books, VegNews and Eating animals.
