  • The hardest part of being vegan

    Today is a very busy day for me. Furthermore, it’s an unusually miserable Monday which I’d much rather spend curled up beneath the sheets than studying and meeting people and whatnot. I’ll just do my best to make it through the day, and hope I manage without falling apart mentally…

  • Why go vegan?

    Starting off Vegan Month of Food with some musings around the standard question: so why are you a vegan? I’ve been vegan for one year and three months, to date. It started as a one-year pledge, to see if I could do it. Apparently I could! I might have failed…

    October is lurking around the corner, and together with it the blogging event Vegan Month of Food! Check out Vegan Month of Food! This year, I intend to participate. The idea is quite simple; everyone who participates should aim to write at least 20 blog posts related to vegan food during…
