About Me

The day I became vegan

I made the decision to adopt this lifestyle after seeing the two famous documentaries - The Game Changer and Cowspiracy. I was already vegetarian for quite sometime but after seeing both documentaries, I couldn't stop thinking about the huge impact of my daily choices on the lives of other beings, my health and the planet. I love to cook and I love to eat so I am always searching for new ways to bring amazing flavours to my dishes.

Ecological and Sustainable awareness

I stopped buying clothing and footwear made from animal skins, prefering more natural and organic, fair-trade fabrics. I started also looking for household cosmetics and cleaning products not tested on animals and I gained preference for greener (and wallet-friendly) options such as soap, solid shampoos, coconut oil, vinegar and sodium bicarbonate, among other wonderful solutions I've been discovering.

Ocean cleaning

I have been doing my best to keep Porto's beach clean, organising ocean cleaning events every weekend and trying to get people together to do it as a group because it's always easier if we are not sailing alone.
