Hi,
I'm in CA until mid-June after which I'll be heading back to Bangalore, India.
Raised vegetarian, I went vegan for the animals in 2017. I'm a dog-loving atheist :) Hoping to find someone who's on the same page.
My interests include reading, gardening, and learning new things. I love the arts and am a big fan of musicals, my favourite being Wicked!
I've been trying to learn the guitar and hope to to play the piano someday.
Love going on hikes and doing yoga. I've also started meditating.
I currently work as a reviewer.
PS- not a paid member yet so the most I can do is send you a wink.

Hi and thanks for stopping by. About me, I've been vegetarian since 1992 and try to keep the dairy/eggs to a minimum. At home I’m the happy dad of an easy going 9yo boy (at home 50/50) and for the first time in 20+ years find myself without multiple pers in my house. While I love my son I should point out that I’m not able to have any more children which I know is going to be important to many women. If you a bringing your own in tow, that’s great too. I love live bands in small venues, outdoor music festivals but not into the dance club scene. My favorite thing to do in my free time is ride my road bike but love many outdoor sports and open to learning something new, ideally outdoors.

I am Vegan because meat comes from the cadaver of someone who wanted to live.
The *best* choice you can make, the most positive action you can accomplish, is becoming Vegan.
Being Vegan embodies non-violence, renouncing the oppression of all beings, including non-human animals.
Birds such as turkeys and chickens.
Pigs, cows and fish commonly used and killed for “food.”
When you get to know them, you recognize animals have feelings and are sensitive individuals.
Just like you, as well as your dog and cat companions.
All of this perspective is incontrovertible.
You are likely agreeable to everything expressed.
If you're not Vegan, it's simple - Stop making excuses and please become Vegan.
Being Vegan is easy!
As an activist and advocate I am aware of other benefits of being Vegan.
Animal use is an environmental disaster!
Being Vegan benefits the environment, my health and adds to my mental and spiritual clarity.
The primary reason I am Vegan is because animals want to live.
Cows never go to slaughterhouses thinking "make me a hamburger."
Animals want to live.
I have noticed people pointing out they avoid eating meat yet consume milk products.
Dairy is liquid meat: Cows are raped every year (imagine that). After yearly rapes, their babies are taken. BABIES STOLEN FROM MOTHERS! (Get's me all wound up just writing this) Babies typically are killed for veal.
Cows commonly mourn loss of their young.
Dairy cows are slaughtered when their lactation quota is counterproductive (too low) for business expense.
Dairy is liquid meat.
It's all the same. There is no morally distinguishable difference between different animal products.
All animal products involve the use and killing of non-consenting sentient beings that wanted to live.
A critical Vegan detail many do not realize or choose to ignore: Being Vegan is more expansive than simply what one eats.
Are you paying attention?
Being Vegan embodies non-violence, renouncing oppression of all beings including non-human animals.
Vegan philosophy connotes LEAVING ANIMALS ALONE. We, humans, abstain from using or exploiting non-humans in any way.
Vegan certainly means ceasing all practical animal use, such as dairy and eggs. And meat of course.
Animals are not fabric. Leather is dead skin. Wool is fundamentally a product of use, abuse and murder.
Down feathers come from tortured birds which are eventually slaughtered.
It's disheartening to see "vegans" exploiting equines.
Animals are not transport devices: Leave horses alone.
Although I thoroughly respect animals, I have no particular love or affection for them.
I am in awe of most non-human creatures. Particularly animals in the wild.
Most have skills, abilities and senses putting humans to shame.
I could sit with you for hours appreciating the wonder of a single spider.
Or watching Oakland Pelicans often here at Beautiful Lake Merritt where I currently live.
I take a fundamental Vegan approach: I leave animals alone.
Was that clear?
Anything explicitly from animals came through use, exploitation and invariably the murder of that non-human individual who wanted to live.
I am a Vegan Advocate. Although recently taking a break, I always spread the Vegan idea.

Free thinker, critical thinker. I believe we should try to live in harmony with nature and the other creatures of the Earth. We should stop putting chemicals into our bodies and the environment. I believe in robust immune systems, vitamin D, healthy food and water, and questioning entrenched powers with conflicts of interest. I’m into hiking in the woods, vegan permaculture, holistic nutrition and cats. My dream is to live in a sustainable vegan community with lots of trees and nature.

Quiet, peaceful and a good listener.
I'm a location sound recordist for film and television, so I'm based in the arts world.

Hello,
I am an ethical vegan looking for some vegan friends. I have been vegan for about 6 years. I went vegetarian when I was 11. I love animals and believe they are our friends, not food.
For work I am a hairsylist and also a seamstress. I have an awesome mini Schnauzer named Alfie and a beautiful Persian cat named Gizmo. I just moved to Oakland from SF 2 months ago. I am loving it over here and look forward to exploring the Eastbay more. I ride a bike for transportation. I work in the city right now at a barbershop. I"m from Seattle, I've lived in the Bay area for almost 5 years now and I love it. Please message me if you are looking for some vegan company. Some how I have managed to have no veggie/vegan friends and this must change!

... Well.... I'm a hard working 30 year old vegan. Depending on how you look at the situation, it's good or bad. I spend most of my waking hours working. I enjoy what I do, but nothing beats friends. I like to make waffles at night, is that weird?
