Our hearts are in Havana 💙❤️ Here are our

Our hearts are in Havana 💙❤️ Here are our top tips for vegan digital nomads in Cuba:
🌱Bring some food supplies!
🌱Get to the hotels to buy Etecsa (internet) cards early, as they sell out quickly.
🌱Accept the fact that you will mostly live on a diet of rum and rice.
🌱Bring at least 3 different bank cards so at least 1 of them will work.
🌱Get cash out rather than using your card but make sure you change it all back to another currency BEFORE you get to the airport.
🌱Check out your wifi connection before you order anything and settle down for work, even if it was working in that cafe/bar/restaurant the day before.
🌱Get a casa particular with a kitchen and buy fruit and veg from the market stalls dotted around. Be aware that supermarkets only stock basic food items and you may have to queue to get inside.
🌱Enjoy yourself and dance as much as you can! Any questions, please don't hesitate to ask us! A Cuba blog post is incoming 😀 #veganhavana #havanacuba🇨🇺 #havanastyle #vegannomad #veganwriters #vegangirlgang #veganbloggersuk #veganblogs #veganlifestyleblogger #veganwritersofig #havanacuba #havanaclub #vegantravel #veganlifestyle🌱 #veganinspiration #nomadiclifestyle #veganblog #veganblogger #veganbloggers #vegan #travel #nomad #editorial #nomadlife #cuba #havana #veganlife #veganlifestyle #vegancommunity

Who else is obsessed with kimchi? 🙋‍♀️

Who else is obsessed with kimchi? 🙋‍♀️ Unfortunately, most kimchi in Korea is made with fish sauce and/or salted shrimp 😭 but there are plenty of other foods that can be made suitable for vegans! Whether you're after a delicious bibimbap, heartwarming juk (glutinous rice flour porridge), mouth-watering hotteok, sweet and chewy Korean rice cakes, silky smooth kongguksu, or a fun-to-make jumeokbap, Korea has lots of tasty plant-based dishes to try. For more tips and advice on what food vegans can eat in Korea, check out Alice's blogs in the travel section of the Vegan Sisters' website. #southkoreanfood #vegankoreanfood #vegankorean #vegankoreancuisine #vegannomad #veganwriter #vegangirlgang #veganbloggersuk #veganblogs #veganlifestylemagazine #southkorean #vegantravel #veganinspiration #veganbloggers #contentwriting #writercommunity #nomadiclifestyle #veganblog #veganlifestyle🌱 #vegan #veganlife #vegancommunity #veganlifestyle #veganpower #vegankorea #editorial #nomad #nomadlife

🙌 if you love sushi 🍣 @Shizensf , Vegan Sushi Bar and Izakaya, does the best plant-based sushi in the whole of San Francisco. In fact, we think it does the best sushi in the whole world! And that's saying something, since we've both been to Japan. Lucy and I had already scouted the restaurant on Happy Cow but we were undecided about whether or not to go. Fortuitously, we happened to drift past Shizen one evening and were drawn over by the crowd of people queuing up outside waiting for it to open. We met a lovely couple at the end of the queue who assured us of its brilliance and I'm so happy we stayed! The sushi was an explosion of flavours and there were a few unique and quirky dishes on the menu - we recommend the Surprise Ending 😜 to top it all off, the plum sake was divine. Stumbling across unexpected treasures like Shizen make travelling all the more magical! What amazing places have you discovered whilst exploring? #vegannomad #vegansushi #veganamerica #vegangirlgang #veganeditorial #vegansanfran #vegansanfrancisco #veganwritersofig #veganlifestyleblogger #veganblogs #veganlifestylemagazine #nomadlifestyle #vegantravel #veganinspiration #veganlifestyle🌱 #veganblog #veganblogger #veganbloggers #vegan #veganlife #vegancommunity #veganlifestyle #veganpower #editorial #veganfood #eatvegan #travel #nomad

We recently escaped our isolated family's cottage

We recently escaped our isolated family's cottage in the country to enjoy the ease of lockdown restrictions in Cambridge. Lucy and I usually work nomadically so - armed with our face masks, hand gel, and laptops - it was amazing to return to some sort of normality. Our first stop was the newly-opened @ThriveCambridge to drink coffee and eat delicious lemon drizzle, apple harvest, and jaffa cakes for breakfast 🍰 Afterwards, we walked around some of the colleges (mostly closed to visitors unfortunately), visited a pub for Lucy's first pint in over 3 months, and strolled along the side of the canal with some cows for company 🐮 For dinner we stuffed our faces with burgers and milkshakes at the amazing @vegan_vice_club 🍔 Cambridge has come on leaps and bounds for vegans over the past year. Watch this space for a future blog post on being vegan in Cambridge! #vegansisters #vegancambridge #cambridgevegans #vegansofcambridge #freedom #veganfood #vegantravel #veganuk #cambridge #travelblog #veganvice #thrivecambridge #wearyourfacemask #facemask #staysafe #socialdistancing

When I (Alice) was younger, I spent many years ins

When I (Alice) was younger, I spent many years insisting that I was not like other girls. I refused to acknowledge, or even recognise, the merits of my gender and purposefully estranged myself by trying to fit in with ‘the guys’. It appears that even I had been tricked into believing that women, in general, were fickle and disinteresting. This was not helped by the fact that the women I saw in movies were often weak-willed and submissive and the books many young girls were given to read ('chick’ literature) starred female characters whose only ambition was to fall in love or marry a prince. Fortunately, my opinions have changed a lot in the past decade, helped along by a supportive family, the chance to connect with incredible women, and the opportunity to finally listen, read, and learn about more females and their amazing contributions. Lucy and I have both been working hard to create a global platform that actively advocates female empowerment. We believe that, by providing women with a platform to share their stories, achievements, and aspirations, we can create a community of change-makers, influencers, and innovators. Join our online community and add your voice to the conversation. After all, there is no limit to what we, as women, can accomplish. #vegansisters #vegancommunity #femalecommunity #genderequality #metoo #ustoo #fem2 #wecandoit #neverthelessshepersisted #yesallwomen #girlpower #femaleentrepreneur #michelleobama #femaleempowerment #feminist #feminism #femalebusiness #businesswomen #womanowned

Who loves ramen as much as we do? 🙋🙋‍♀️ Did you know there were several different types of ramen? Here are some of the most common styles that can be made suitable for vegans: 🌱 Shoyu (soy sauce base)
🌱 Miso (fermented soy base)
🌱 Shio (salt base)
🌱 Tantan (a Chinese fusion with sesame) Lucy and I have had the pleasure of eating at plenty of incredible ramen restaurants whilst travelling in Japan. We both visited Tokyo separately but we both agreed that our favourite vegan ramen had to be the Golden Sesame Ramen from @ts_tantan_jp . Check out Lucy's full review and her guide to the best vegan ramens in Tokyo by visiting our website: https://www.vegansisters.org/travel/best-vegan-ramen-tokyo/ If you can't make it to Tokyo, that's ok! We're lucky enough to have a few authentic ramen places right here in the UK. The Vegan Sisters seriously recommend @shoryu_ramen 🤤 they do so many delicious vegan options. #veganramen #vegansisters #vegantravel #veganfood #goldensesameramen #veganjapan #vegantokyo #tstantan #plantbasedramen #shoryu #shoryuramen #whatgreedyveganseat #noodles #tokyo #tokyotravel #vegannomad #japanese #japanesefood #ramenlover

Why do you write? Similar to Claudia Hampton (the prickly protagonist of Penelope Lively’s book ‘Moon Tiger’), we believe that once thoughts have been applied to paper (or posted online) they take on a form of permanence and help us to leave our mark upon the world. Writing allows us to communicate, identify ourselves, tell stories, inspire others, earn a living, share opinions, express feelings, record history, conduct business, make people laugh (or cry), and cement our memories. It can also be a powerful method of activism and advocacy. At Vegan Sisters, we provide you with a platform to contribute your voice. Whether that’s about the incredible plant-based takeaway you had for dinner last night, your top tips on how to travel around Japan as a vegan coeliac, the best black-owned ethical businesses in your city, or the latest sustainable fashion trends that have caught your eye, we would love to hear about it! You can submit work or pitch us with an idea by visiting our website (link in the bio). #vegansisters #vegancommunity #veganwriter #freelancewriter #writersofinsta #author #pentopaper #plantbased #vegansofinsta #writing #professionalwriter #amateurwriter #penelopelively #moontiger #communicate #storyteller #lovequotes #writerslife #inspiration #writingquotes #language

🙌 if you like cashew cheese! We ❤️ eating @kashewcheese in a bánh mì! These guys use fresh Vietnamese cashew nuts to make their cheesy creations. The flavours are inspired by local ingredients, such as chilli and black pepper. If you're ever in Saigon, we seriously recommend stopping by their vegan cheese deli in Thao Dien.

VEGAN SISTERS: ALICE + LUCY Since going plant-bas

VEGAN SISTERS:
ALICE + LUCY Since going plant-based in 2015, we’ve made it our mission to discover the best food, travel destinations, sustainable fashion, and experiences available for vegans. Living nomadically has been incredible but it’s certainly presented some challenges (e.g. surviving off a diet of rum and rice for 2 weeks in Cuba with no WiFi access for work). Nevertheless, we made these…er sacrifices(?) so that we could make it easier for future vegan explorers. We hope our journeys motivate and inspire you to embark on your own adventures! Happy wandering 🙂 Alice and Lucy x #vegansisters #vegantravellers #vegannomads #digitalnomads #happywandering #wanderlust #sisters #vegantravel #plantbased #journey #inspirational #veganeditorial #veganeducation
