Life is a voyage, live it well!
My friend Christy Morgan, aka The Blissful Chef, has decided to leave the U.S. for a 3 month solo tour of Japan and Southeast Asia. A little vegan Eat, Pray, Love action! She will be checking in with us while overseas but for now, here’s her personal “diary” on how she got the ball rolling!: [...]
Camarillo is just outside of the Los Angeles County limits however, it feels like a world away. Slower paced, residential and cozy, this Ventura county town has quite a bit to offer anyone who follows a special diet. Sandwich between LA and Santa Barbara, here are a few spots worth stopping for! I’ll start with [...]
This is it, the last official holiday weekend of summer. Back-to-school, back to work, winter break is months away. For some, big vacations are the way to end summer 2010 with a bang but for others, time and finances may make that type of trip impossible. Regardless, make this last big weekend count so here [...]
I LOVE Portland and can’t wait to go back soon! The abundance of healthy, plant based food as well as the overall healthy mindset of its inhabitants makes it a very appealing city to visit. Eco friendly, artsy amidst all the beauty of being in the Pacific North West, Portland is fabulous ; ) See [...]
Last summer I wrote about some great opportunities in healthy, green and volunteer travel. In the past year there have been so many things that have popped both wonderful as well as traumatic (i.e. Haitian Earthquake) that have opened up so many doors to folks suffer from chronic wanderlust.

So last summer I wrote about Conscious Camping, health and eco tips so that you can get the most out of your adventure without getting sick or leaving a ginormo carbon footprint. Be sure to check out that post for additional info after you’ve gone through this summer’s checklist ; ) I thought since I [...]

Wrong, it’s the super in thing and no longer an 80′s stereotype of this west coast metropolis. And in this metropolis, you will find Heather Lounsbury of Live Natural, Live Well. Acupuncturist and all around [...]
There’s nothing like hitting up theme park during the summer. Families, couples and groups of friends all make time to let out their inner child and splurge on a theme park day-cation or full on vacation. Of course, nothing rounds out a day at the park like overpriced churros, popcorn, soda and fries. Right? Well, [...]
So summertime means bathing suits and skimpier clothing in general. That means watching what we eat and even more so, working out. People always want to look toned and trim and unfortunately, you gotta go the extra mile and add some extra spice to your workouts to do that. And that’s hard to do with [...]
Just south of Cancun, you will find Playa Del Carmen. Less American touristy and more laid back, the beaches and sites of PDC are nothing short of spectacular. We visited the area on numerous day trips and I think our next trip to the area, we’ll be choosing accommodations in Playa Del Carmen. Hands down, [...]
