I have always been concerned with my confidence level/weight/mental clarity. I've bounced around many diets especially leaning towards the Atkins low carb diet (that was hell-- but it's what my parents always did) and I've also tried- within the past year- Paleo. I did well on that diet as it pulled me away from processed foods and dairy products but I still didn't feel confident in my own skin. Throughout most of the paleo diet I was researching diets and came across Freelee's YouTube channel. I was so intrigued by it all and it seemed like a great diet! I started to follow other vegan accounts on Instagram like Essena Oneill and earthlingmaxi and a lot more. I had the idea since I was going to UH Manoa for school next year (2015/16) I could start then since I would be out of the same roof as my meat eating family. But then I started seeing documentaries and the ethical side of veganism. I was hooked the next day-April 1st 2015. (Haha everyone thought I was kidding APRIL FOOLS). I had done an insane amount of research and I've been eating as much as I want that's mainly fruits and rice and potatoes. However I have had bad days where I somehow convince myself it's ok to eat chips and 'junk food vegan' options especially when with friends. But I will turn that around to a plant based. My family surprisingly extremely supportive and they buy random stuff for me all the time! When they pickup sushi, they get me veggie rolls and a bunch of rice. When my dad travels for work and passes this one date farm, he buys be a huge box of them. They are really considerate, as are my close friends and I rarely have to deal with people's anti vegan rants. I love my new lifestyle and I've never felt so alive everyday or so confident even though I'm still over my personal ideal weight. But I know that comes with time. All that really matters is that I am saving LIVES.

I am traveling to spain/ Italy this summer and was wondering how to be vegan and still 'experience' the culture of the food there.
