More About Me

Reasons why I prefer to eat vegetarian or vegan:

I decided to become Vegan after researching the human body and nutrition. Once I realized how unhealthy our diets are in America I quickly changed to Veganism. It was hard at first but the more I learned about the lifestyle, the affect it has on the planet, and all the pain and suffering animals go through, it's like how could I NOT change!? I am a happy plant based lady now :)

I joined HappyCow Members Community because:

I joined the Happy Cow community to learn of new spots I could try and stores. Finding new vegan stores or stores that sell vegan products is really great. It wouldn't hurt to meet some new people sharing my thoughts as well!

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

My favorite place I've traveled to in the States is Hawaii. The natural beauty there and the air is just amazing. I can't wait to return! My other favorite place I have been is Paris, France. The history, the architecture, museums, art, THE BAGUETTES! Everything about the city is beautiful in my opinion, plus being half French makes me a little partial ;)

Some of my favorite veg*n foods include:

Soy-rizo is a life saver for a Mexi girl like me. Especially when it's the same brand your mom used growing up! Reynaldo's! I recommend that to everyone. I love tofu, a lot now. I never thought I would say that thinking back to how I used to feel. lol and brussels sprouts! Those little nuggets are delicious.

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

There are tons of documentaries out there that are really mind blowing. Overweight, sick and nearly dead really shocked me and opened my eyes to how much food can really heal or kill the body.
