Hello, all my loved ones! I'm not sure how to create a status, but I will be relatively Internet-free for the next month as I travel so will not be able to respond to posts/messages!
Still, I'd love to receive them when I get back to civilization!

Thanks so much for the info - I'll be sure to try that place. I always forget that there are more farmer's markets is places other than the US. I can also imagine myself not being able to afford a whole lot organic in Paris lol - but conventional
I may still be around when you get back haha...I will likely be jumping around France - so knows where I'll be come late July or August - possibly back in Paris.
I don't know how you are going to try to explain the "lifestyle" to a French person lol. I will probably be staying with my friend's brother in Paris and my friend in Dijon and I don't even know how I'll be begin to say I pretty much will only eat fruit and not sound crazy - and also not be awkward at the table...
Hi Leah. I am a raw vegan and I am going to France in just over a month. I'll be spending some time in Paris, at least 2 weeks the department of Allier, and who knows where else. Is it hard to be raw in France? I don't have to be 100% if it's unaffordable or not possible, but I will definitely not eat a typical French diet lol. Actually, in Allier I will be part of a volunteer group where you all shop together and help prepare food according to your own recipes, so that could be interesting...
But yeah how is it eating the way you do in France? I'm guessing there are no raw places in Paris?
:-)...add some chipotle sweet almond sauce and some fresh cucumber to those avocados and mangos and you'll my find heaven :-)
peace vibes from San Diego
love Paris....haven't there yet but I love it already ;-)
Vow! I love Oscar Wilde as well as Einstein. I love mangoes, too! French women have combinations of intellectuality, slimness and sensuality, based on what I have heard and read.Thank you for befriending me, Leah. I would love to keep in touch with you. Paris is in my heart. How do you know the word Namaste? I am pleased by your profile and your intent to maximise consciousness.
Haha! Probably Charles! I actually bought this dress at the spirit fest because it was on sale and made from 100% organic hemp. The rest of the clothes I brought were pretty grubby. :)
I avoid dinner dates, because that's never a good way to know someone on a first date. And besides, you never know whether they accepted to go to dinner because they liked you or because they didn't want to cook and they wanted to be treated out t...
yeah.. i was told it was nothing to worry about.... I have one between my breasts, dark bright red pinprick, just showed up one day. it's just the end of a capillary, although, i was worried about circulation etc.... I was told they are always the...

Charles Need a raw vegan version of the phrase "Ain't no thing but a chicken wing."
You can always ask a produce dept. employee at Whole Foods to cut one open so you can try it before you waste your money. It's store policy to let people sample things:)
but just becouse we were tampered with does not mean that we came from microscopic ethers. We had form, body and a brain, simple tampering was neccessary to tame wild beasts that we were then in order to domesticate us..........and to make faithfu...
