Posted on October 11, 2017 by Jenny

Posted on October 8, 2017 by Jenny

VeganMoFo 2017: Lunch Box, Vernazza

Posted on October 5, 2017 by Jenny

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 →

VeganMoFo 2017: Vegan Gelato in the Cinque Terre

Posted on October 4, 2017 by Jenny

I feel like it’s the law that you have to have an ice cream when you’re by the sea. And maybe generally when you’re on a summer holiday?  While in Italy, Dr HH and I decided to treat ourselves to … Continue reading →
