More About Me
Reasons why I prefer to eat vegetarian or vegan:
I was basically vegetarian for over a decade, eating meat maybe once a year (purity is never my thing) but then started eating meat again after moving to Bolivia and getting pregnant. Six years later, after a few documentaries and lots of YouTube videos, I'm back to trying to avoid animal products. I'm less interested in the term 'vegan' as I am in saying I'm trying to follow a plant-based whole-food diet. It's not about purity for me, but hopefully sustainability and this time, dropping dairy and eggs as well. Here's to health!
I joined HappyCow Members Community because:
Living in Bolivia, it's hard to find vegan places - so I'm glad to have a space where I can share what I've found *and* can also find new places more quickly here online than by foot. Thank you!
Here are some places I've been that I liked... and places that I would like to visit one day:
I've visited half the states in the U.S., lived in Italy for a year and a half, spent four months in Moscow, lived in Japan for three months, and visited a dozen other countries including Eritrea, Mexico, and lots of islands in the Caribbean. Would love to visit more places!
Some of my favorite veg*n foods include:
Lately, I most enjoy experimenting with different types of flatbreads - one made of all lentils, another with just amaranth (a native grain found here in Bolivia), and lots of socca (made from chickpea flour).
Here are some books, movies, magazines, and my favorites that I would recommend to other HappyCow members:
My top two recommendations are: * How Not to Die by Dr. Greger - amazing book! * Cowspiracy - but if you're on happycow, then surely you've seen it already. ;)
