The Well-Edited Collection of a Modern's Vegan's Life

After a long hiatus, I'm back and ready to blog. But this time, I want to blog a little differently. I want to cover my life more expansively. Honestly, the reason I stopped is because I was feeling a bit trapped by the vegan headline. I felt compelled to only write about vegan things, and the best I could do was food since clothing and other products just aren't mainstream. I was bored always writing about food, always seeking the vegan angle.

I'm a realistic vegan, a vegan who has a real life. Or, more accurately, I'm a girl with a regular life who happens to be vegan. Being vegan influences--but doesn't control--my decisions. I'll come clean...I love vegan dessert, but when I'm craving my friend's chocolate cake, I'll have a bite. When I'm in a fantastic sushi restaurant, and the only veg roll on the menu is the same-old, plain cucumber avocado roll, then I'll have the fantastic-looking salmon rainbow roll. I can't say that just because I found myself in a steakhouse I'd eat a filet, but fish sushi is most certainly not off the table, nor is chocolate, nor cookies, nor cake. I prefer being vegan, but sometimes I just want to enjoy the moment!

I'm re-shaping this blog into something bigger, greater and broader than just a vegan blog. From today forward, this blog is just the well-edited collection of a modern vegan's life.

Translation: I will blog about my life, both the vegan and non-vegan things in it. I just want to write and share my experiences. If that means I post about a fabulous hat I found in Stockholm, then so be it. I will still blog vegan food, though, since uncovering vegan gems in cities around the world is one of my favorite things to do. More to come.
