    6 Weeks & 5 Days

    Friday, November 4th, 2011

    I have been vegan for 6 weeks and 5 days.  Can I get a “but who’s counting?” followed by a quick “ba-dum-dum-chhhh”?  That’s right, I have been…sort of.  It’s more like I know I started the Saturday before school and if I look at any calendar I can calculate it.

    Warum gerade hier?

    Sunday, July 17th, 2011

    Como

    Saturday, July 16th, 2011

    From Osnabrück I headed down to Como, Italy to visit another best friend from Ecuador named Federica (but feel free to call her Fede).  Fede lives very close to George Clooney.  She also lives very close to the most beautiful lake that might exist.  The Lago di Como was formed by a melted glacier, so [...]
