I explored a part of Portugal I had never been to,

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.

My small town in Portugal has almost no vegan food

My small town in Portugal has almost no vegan food. Almost! I’m thankful there are some decent options at @eva.pecadonatural and @bambu.sushispot and I’ve got soft serve at @myicedsantarem. The service is always great too and the food is affordable. It’s not the amazing options in Lisbon but I gotta be thankful that during curfew and restricted travel I can at least go out for a meal! 2020 has been rough so finding these gems is a shining light in a sea of crap. How’s your year going?

Happy World Vegan Day!! I know it’s been a long

Happy World Vegan Day!! I know it’s been a long while since I posted anything but the fact that veganism is one of the most important aspects of my life it’s time to celebrate. We can’t change the things outside of us, but we sure can change and improve what goes inside of us!! Have you thought about going vegan but don’t know where to start? Happy to help! Been vegan almost 19 years and not a day goes by that I regret that decision. Hugs from Portugal! Oh by the way, it’s harvest time around here so I ate my first pumpkin and harvested a ton of pomegranates! Yum!

I can now say I’m a Yin Yoga teacher! I took the quarantine as an opportunity to enrich my training with the online Mindful Yin Yoga course by @jenniferrayetravels. It’s interesting how my yoga practice has changed as I’ve aged. I’m not interested in power yoga anymore and I find myself wanting more gentle and deep practices. If you had ask me 5+ years ago if I liked yin yoga I would have said no. Now it has a place in my practice and I’m glad I can share it with my students. This training was great and tapped into Chinese medicine, which I find interesting because of my macrobiotic training. Definitely recommend it!

Anyone else getting lots of joy when they dote over their garden? I know many of my friends have become obsessed with house plants, especially those living in cities. I’m so happy to be living the #farmlife now and growing my own food. It’s funny because my grandparents had a huge farm and I absolutely hated going there as a kid. I never thought I would turn into my grandma 😂 Can’t wait for these to be pumpkins.

It’s nice to have friends that bake you cake to celebrate becoming an official resident of Portugal! That’s right folks! I’m finally official, got my resident card in the mail, and they can’t kick me out 😆 Thanks @loveeatcatering for the cake and being just a lovely person. I’m glad to have you and your friends in my life now! It has made all the difference to feeling that I belong here. I won’t lie, it’s been challenging moving to a small town and trudging through a pandemic without your closest friends. Also shout out to my neighbor @mario.agroeco who I wouldn’t have survived this pandemic without! Okay enough mushy stuff. I’m so happy to live here and I am happy to help any of my friends in the US get themselves to Europe.

So I discovered a little park by a river that has a veggie market and a drink cart Thursday through Sunday. I take a blanket, grab a sangria and cool off in the breeze. Seriously loving these simple pleasures since life is not the usual these days. Have you discovered any simple things that help you through this challenging time? Share with me in the comments!

It’s hard to celebrate during these times but we have to take joy wherever we can right? I was able to get my residency in Portugal today finally after waiting 7 months. I’m so happy!! I also have made some lovely connections with people in my town and will offer outdoor fitness classes Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. I know it’s hot but working outdoors is safer than going to the gym! I can’t wait to connect more with my local community here in #santarém. More details at the link in my bio. Hope you are staying safe and well ❤️
