  • Wishing Trees

    Wishing Trees

    Ahhh, the classic Facebook argument. I never normally engage in them because *brain rot*, but recently I couldn’t help getting involved in a particular discussion. It was on a travel page with over 1 million members, and the original post was receiving so much positive feedback I felt I had to chime in from a […]

  • Steps to Going Vegan

    Steps to Going Vegan

    Increasingly, I’m inspired by my friends and family asking me questions about being veggie/vegan and how they can move towards a more eco-friendly lifestyle. Before more recent years, going vegan was largely thought of as a stand against poor animal ethics, but now I think people are beginning to understand the true impact our diets […]

  • Vegan Eats in Vienna & Salzburg

    Vegan Eats in Vienna & Salzburg

    I’ve started to put together some mini food diaries from my travels over the past couple of years, and I want to start with Austria. I’ve done a couple of these posts already for Bristol and London, and you’ll find vegan hotspots in most of my travel posts, but here’s the first proper instalment! The […]

  • Staying In a Hobbit Hole: West Stow Pods, UK

    Staying In a Hobbit Hole: West Stow Pods, UK

    “In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit. Not a nasty, dirty, wet hole, filled with the ends of worms and an oozy smell, not yet a dry, bare, sandy hole with nothing in it to sit down on or to eat: it was a hobbit-hole, and that means comfort.” Back in December, […]

  • My Experience Marching with Extinction Rebellion

    My Experience Marching with Extinction Rebellion

    This could get controversial… and that’s okay. That’s how these things get heard. That’s how these things get understood. That’s how change happens. Time and time again, through history, civil disobedience has proven its effectiveness and I am proud to have been a part of the monumental marching that took place in April. https://rebellion.earth/ The […]

  • Sustainable Marching: Extinction Rebellion

    Sustainable Marching: Extinction Rebellion

     After attending the Extinction Rebellion march in London last month, and speaking to my friend Poppy about marching in general, I realised there’s quite a gap on the internet for this topic. More specifically, sustainable marching. Everyone marching for XR was pretty great and I didn’t see damage left behind by that march; this post […]

  • No More Plastic – What I’ve Taken From The Book

    No More Plastic – What I’ve Taken From The Book

    I’ve recently rediscovered my love for book shops. Having owned a Kindle for several years now, I read 90% of my books on there, but when visiting Southwold we popped into their book shop and spent ages flicking through the shelves. I ended up walking away with ‘No. More. Plastic.’ by Martin Dorey: a simple […]

  • 10 Small Ways To Save The Planet

    10 Small Ways To Save The Planet

     I’m starting a degree in September! Not quite sure how this has ended up happening but I couldn’t be more excited. It’s in Wildlife Conservation which has always been something close to my heart; I recently went back to my first blog posts and noticed I said I wanted to work somewhere like the RSPCA. […]

    6 Vegan Locations In Bristol

    Continuing in the spirit of my 6 Vegan Locations In London post, it’s time to turn my attention to my new home city! I can never quite stick to a nice round 5, so here are my top 6 picks from everywhere I’ve tried so far. According to a study completed last month, Bristol is […]

    6 Vegan Locations In London

    After 2 years of being vegan, I thought it was about time I put together a little post of six of my favourite places to eat in London. This is by no means my absolute top choices (that would be far too difficult), but these are all 100% worth a visit. I hope to visit […]
