One thing I like about Instagram is being able to unite with others like us- VEGANS!
I have had Instagram for 2 years now, and I think it’s a pretty neat app. I like being able to see and share food !!! I love being able to connect and follow other Vegans in their everyday eats and adventures. Being able to follow people from all over the world means, different foods, from different cultures; From the countries of Spain, Australia, and Scotland to states like California, Texas and New York! We are all different. Each countries and states have their different cultures, and I love being able to see them through food, especially Vegan dishes!
Two of my top followers are VEGANFOODSHARE and VEGANSOFIG. These names speak for themselves!
Instagram Vegan Community Unite!!!
VeganFoodShare share daily pictures of meals tagged #veganfoodshare. They also feature many different individuals to explain the main dish they have chosen along with a little bio of themselves. Neat, no? It almost feels like winning an award!
Vegansofig [Vegans Of Instagram] shares tips, where to shop, talks about nutrition, animal cruelty, activist work, fashion, and simple ways to help others have a sane walk into Veganism. Vegansofig has got you covered.
Even I have learned a few things. I love being able to help others, it’s nice to be surrounded by people that share the same likes and interests. I love food, I love cooking, and I love being able to show my cooking skills, hehe. I have made some great friends along the way. Don’t be fooled by an app! I have seen people fall in LOVE through Instagram, if people can fall in love through Instagram, we can encourage others to better their eating habits through a dash of curiosity and few pictures! A picture is worth a thousand words!
Some of the most popular tags I use are #WhatVegansEat #VeganFoodShare #Vegansofig #VeganProblems. Be ready to be mesmerized with beautiful, vibrant, and healthy pictures. I always say this, Veganism is form of art. When it comes to cooking, the fruits, legumes, nuts and seeds become our pallets. We have the gift to nurture and take care of our body the way it should be taken care of, why not have fun with it?
Don’t miss your chance on the wagon. Lurk, comment, and follow! Come see what the BUZZ! BUZZ! is about!

Why, Hello!
It has been a while since we have last spoken. I hope the New Year has been taking good care of you as it’s been for me.
Here is a little recap of things…
I moved back home to Atlanta, Georgia. Montreal was a great experience, I met a lot of great people, made some travels in between, experienced Montreal like a tourist before making it my home to stay. I went to some of the festivals it had to offer, i ate some great vegan food all around, and challenged myself on living in the city. I learned a lot about myself, and discovered that there is a lot more to life than the simple routine we set ourselves in every day. I can happily say that I am a better and stronger person today. Leaving home a year and a half ago was honestly… Bold. Was i scared? No, because i was ready to embark in a new journey. But because we are humans, a little fear was indeed in play. Until this day, I don’t have a concrete reason as to why i have left, but i will tell you this now, i don’t regret it one bit! I love my country. Canada is a beautiful place but with where I am in life right now, home with my family is where my heart lies. I am very happy to be back to Georgia, It’s been about a month and a week now, and i couldn’t be any happier!
I ate a lot of food in Montreal, some i was able to share with you in this blog, which was the reason why i started it. I wanted to keep myself busy for a little while. After enrolling and being accepted to school, the time i had in my hands became a little scarce, and the site sort of went downhill.
I want to thank all of you that stayed and clicked around. For a little side project i started a year ago, i was suprised to attain over 1800 views, as of today.
Now that i am back, there is a lot of things i want to do differently with this blog. Yes, I will continue to post about my eats and this time from Atlanta, and share some of the recipes that i have and made. The Traveling Pink Lips is back and i plan on making it a full movement!
From eats to informations, events, environmental issues, DIY, books & product reviews and last but not least a little bit of my nerdy side will too part take of this site.
I am excited, and i hope that you are too.
I welcome all of you Vegans/ Vegetarians & Non/ Vegans/ Vegetarians , & even more the Curious along this ship.
I am ready to sail this puppy to a new land!
I hope you can find some things that will relate and help you. I am open to any questions, help and concerns you may have and what you’d like to see!
Veganism is not an overnight process. I am a few years in and i continue to learn something new everyday.
I WANT to prove to you of how tasty, and easy it is. I am going to share some of the things i love and know about Veganism.
Perhaps, I can challenge you to take a step IN. Dare?!
Welcome Aboard!
