Travelling is tiring

Travelling is tiring

Travelling is tiring. I know it sounds ridiculous to many, but travelling is tiring. I know, you’re probably thinking, “Oh come on! You don’t have to work, you get to see awesome places, have freedom” etc. Yes, that’s true and I am not complaining at all. I am very grateful for all the travelling I have been able to do and I absolutely love it with a passion! But there are times when I just want to stop. Stop thinking…

Hiking the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu: What to expect.

Hiking the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu: What to expect.

Tour company used: G Adventures. Wow. Where do I even begin when I start this encounter with the Sacred Valley and the Inca Trail hike? It’s one of them experiences where at the time you will question: Why am I doing this? Why did I pay to put myself through this? Will I make it to the end of this journey? Will it even be worth it at the end? So many questions and so many slips of positive mental…

Eating Vegan whilst travelling Peru: My experience

Eating Vegan whilst travelling Peru: My experience

Oh Peru, you little (well, not so little…) beauty you. Peru is such a brilliant country with such diversity. I arrived looking out onto rolling hills, stepped onto sandy beaches, swam in the ocean, sand boarded in the dessert, climbed mountains and finished with a boating tour of the incredible Lake Titicaca. It seriously has so much to offer and besides from scenery, the food in Peru was fantastic. I left Ecuador and entered Peru with no expectations but the…

Eating Vegan whilst travelling Ecuador: My Experience

Eating Vegan whilst travelling Ecuador: My Experience

Having been fully vegan for just one year this was my first time backpacking as a vegan.

Despite being vegan, when I’m eating out and food is out of my control (to some extent) I am not a fussy eater. As long as I have food in…

How chocolate is made: Amazon Rainforest

How chocolate is made: Amazon Rainforest

  Hello you beautiful people !! I have just returned from four days in the Amazon Rainforest and I had such an amazing time. During my time exploring the jungle I was fortunate enough to learn all about one of my favourite foods ever, cacao. It grows wild here in the Amazon and everywhere I walked I stumbled across it; heaven. To be honest, before entering the Amazon I couldn’t have told you what cacao looked like before being crushed…

Vegan “Mac and Cheese”

Vegan “Mac and Cheese”

Here is a healthy take on a Mac and Cheese Recipe which is easy to make, versatile and satisfying. Coconut milk is a great substitute from cows milk and is super high in fibre, B vitamins, vitamin C, iron, calcium and magnesium. Not to be confused with coconut water! Coconut water is fresh from a coconut itself and is clear in colour. Coconut milk, which here in the UK comes in a can, undergoes a straining process and is white in colour…

Pear and Chocolate Oats with Caramel Sauce

Pear and Chocolate Oats with Caramel Sauce

I am someone who very much sticks to what they like and will continue having the same food over and over until I get bored of it. Today I thought I would try something different and I absolutely love it; you will continue to see this post on my Instagram feed for a while I’m sure. Pear in oats is something that isn’t knew but it is such a nice subtle sweetness to the oats and as they are a soft…
