Finland is going to need more than one post becaus

Finland is going to need more than one post because I was there for 10 days and it was just spectacular. First I must tell you about one of the best meals I’ve ever had in my life at @maguhelsinki. I rarely splurge like this but when I saw the foraged mushroom themed menu I could not resist!! Flip through the 5 courses and see the menu choices at the end. Seriously in love with vegan food. There is nothing missing from your life if you eat vegan.

After the yoga therapy teacher training in France

After the yoga therapy teacher training in France I headed to Germany for a week. Since I lived in Berlin for 1.5 years I just had to visit friends and also eat amazing vegan food. Berlin is definitely in my top 10 vegan cities in the world and it did not disappoint. Got to squeeze many friends, saw a comedy show with a Portuguese comedian who happened to be in town at the same time, ate sushi at one of my all-time favorite spots, pizza, donuts, Asian food. Then visited a dear friend in Nuremberg which I think is an adorable and beautiful city. Not as much vegan food though! It’s been a privilege to travel at this time and I’m very grateful that Europe feels much safer because many countries you need a vaccine pass to go inside.

I’m behind on posting photos from my trip so far

I’m behind on posting photos from my trip so far. Let’s start with Lyon, France! At first I didn’t think much of this city but as I walked all around (25k steps a day!!!!!) it started to grow on me. It’s the second largest city in France and nowhere near as beautiful as Paris but had many good attributes like the cat cafe with an epic brunch (@nekobonheur). I had lovely walks along the rivers, a fantastic meal at @lesmauvaisesherbeslyon1 , desserts at Lê petite colibri then followed 3 nights with an epic week long yoga therapy training in the countryside with @samarasa_healing. I learned so much and feel really inspired to teach yoga in a whole new way that benefits all bodies. More trip photos coming soon.

I totally forgot to post when this happened over a month ago. I was so elated and relieved when I got my second shot but now with Delta and the continued carelessness of people who knows what we have in store for us. I’m not feeling very hopeful for humanity right now with all that is going on in the world. Anyone else feeling those vibes? Tomorrow I leave for a month long trip around Europe. After not traveling for a year and a half I’m ready to get out into the world. Safely. Double masked. Hope you are having a good summer. Oh and yeah I’m vaccinated and still vegan! Being vegan is an act of compassion and we get vaccinated to help our communities and show compassion for others. Duh.

I haven’t posted in a while and not because thin

I haven’t posted in a while and not because things aren’t good. Honestly, life has been great. I’ve been working a bit too much but have a vibrant social life and wonderful friends here in my new area!! The weather has improved. I’m in love with the farmers market where I get all my produce for the week for 7€! More of a recap of June, got my first vaccine, went to @casa_das_flores_portugal_ for the first time to enjoy the sun, pool, spa day and the most delicious #vegan food (then went again!), had a sushi date in the park, visited many beaches and enjoyed live music with friends and sangria. Still playing tennis 🎾 What have you been up to?

My 42nd birthday was pretty awesome! I put on red

My 42nd birthday was pretty awesome! I put on red lipstick for the second time in my life. My new friends threw me a little get together on Thursday and I had the most delicious caramel apple and biscoff cake from @the26.pt ! I provided all the food (#vegan of course). None of them are vegan, but they loved everything! I got some lovely pastries from @loveeatcatering 💕 They were shocked at how delicious the food and cake was so I’m happy. That’s all you want when you have new omnivores in your life. This is new to me as I haven’t really had non-vegan friends in over 15 years. Let’s just say it’s interesting! Thanks to everyone that sent bday love my way! I’m sending big virtual hugs to you all 🤗🤗🤗

Had the best Saturday in a long time going paddle

Had the best Saturday in a long time going paddle boarding at the lagoon near my new house. I’m so glad I moved closer to the coast and nearer to like-minded people that became fast friends! Life must go on even though vaccinations are still very slow here. At least our numbers and deaths are the 2nd lowest in Europe. So we can enjoy the safety of summer and warmer weather as best as we can. Turning 42 on Thursday. This year is flying by right?! How you doing?

The last year has been hard all around, but one thing I’ve been missing is culture. Whether that be art, music, theater, dance...I just miss it all so much. When the museums opened again I couldn’t wait to go! The Berardo museum in Belém has one of the best modern art collection I’ve ever seen. And that is saying a lot! Flip through a few of my favorites.

I explored a part of Portugal I had never been to, felt some ocean breeze then went for a nice walk around the Obidos Lagoon. It was lovely and so nice being in nature! Made a new friend who brought this delicious tempeh filled pastry for a snack. After being in lockdown for 2 months it was really good to have a day away from home! 2 1/2 more weeks of this and then restaurants open again for outdoor dining. Hope you are doing well!!

It’s one of my least favorite holidays but I couldn’t help myself from buying some beautiful vegan gourmet chocolates from @vegandelights.sweden. I mean, just look at them! With lockdown fatigue starting to set in and no end in sight it’s really nice to #treatyoself and support a small vegan business at the same time! Hope you are feeling loved today.

So 2020 wasn’t all bad if I really look back at

So 2020 wasn’t all bad if I really look back at the year. It was a mix because that is how life works. I took advantage of being able to road trip around Portugal and it truly is such a beautiful country. I saw so many places and the river beaches this summer were the best. Despite the many negatives this country has, the positives always shine through. But I’m really not sure if I’ll stay here. I have no clue about the future and I’m not making any plans. Just staying open and optimistic about the possibilities. I’ve got nowhere to be but here in this moment. Did you set any resolutions or goals? I’d love to hear about them in comments. I need a bit of inspiration right now.
