VeganMoFo 2017: Trattoria Alessi, Desenzano

Verona is a lovely place to spend a few nights, and lends itself really well to day trips – there isn’t loads to do in the city itself, and it’s quite easy to get around the area on public transport. … Continue reading

VeganMoFo 2017: Flower Burger, Milan

VeganMoFo 2017: Lunch Box, Vernazza

Usually I choose my holiday destinations based on vegan options, so it seems strange that I even went to the Cinque Terre, nevermind that I enjoyed it so much!  But it’s true: I’m already dreaming of going back one day … Continue reading
