Goji berries are proven to have a lot of health benefits like reducing blood sugar, cholesterol, improving memory and brain functions. Most of Vegan food have many health benefits as well because plants are the real food with lots of nutrients in them.
                             
You can find Goji berries in some stores or you can order them online. They go with anything, you can add them in your smoothies or just eat them as dried fruits. If you want to have improved memory and brain in short time. Try Goji berries. Eat a handful everyday, you won't need too much to get the nutrients from them.

Spiders Approach You When You Go Vegan !!

Many of these little cool looking creatures approached me after I became Vegan recently. I realized spiders might love Vegans for some reasons. Perhaps Vegans are more in tune with nature and animals around them. These creatures seem very sensitive to energy and what's going on around them. They have several eyes and legs that they move around easily. I felt like this creature was watching me for a while like trying to understand me or feeling me. Spiders are very smart and extraordinary creatures for sure. I've never been this close to them before. Am I becoming the Spider Man. =)  I don't think so. Going Vegan is awesome. Humans meant to be Vegans in reality. All animals are our friends. This little guy jumped on me like dogs jump on people to hug them. It was weird ! I never felt bad about this spider being near me. I don't know what kind of spider this is but this type of spider is pretty cool looking and friendly. I don't like spiders like that. They are scary, creepy looking and some are poisonous so gotta be careful about them. I just want to make a point about how Vegans become closer to all creatures and animals after some time.

How To Make A Simple Vegan Sandwich =)

I love making Vegan sandwiches all the time. I make this sandwich because it's very easy to make and very delicious =)  This Vegan sausage is so tasty combined with the tomatoes or vegan cheeses and sauces. Check what kind of bread you get before you buy. Some bread contain milk or eggs. I read the ingredients of all the groceries I buy before I purchase them. So many things that look Vegan may contain milk, eggs etc. Best way is to read all the ingredients of all the items all the time. Most of the vegan sausages are great. I don't really like Vegan veggies dogs or veggie chickens. They remind me of real meat with their taste and look. I can only eat the vegan sausages in this moment. Vegan must prepare most of their food unless it's raw fruits and veggies. It's like only very few items are Vegan at grocery stores but luckily the vegan products are growing in grocery stores. So many people are going vegan. I'm glad it's so popular now. A lot of people becoming aware of what's going. We're what we eat and no animals are meant to be food for people. There are so many delicious fruits, veggies, nuts of all kinds for us to eat and consume instead of animals, meat and dairy products.

Why You Must GO VEGAN To Save The World !!

Top Reasons To Go Vegan In 2018


Baby Tomato Plants Sprouted

This was my first try to grow my own plants in a pot. They sprout so fast from seeds that I put inside the soil. I love watching them grow everyday. I finally transplanted them to my backyard for them to receive sunlight and grow bigger. Growing plants and your own food is one of the best things you can do in your life. There are so many plants like tomatoes to grow easily. Tomatoes love sunlight so always plant them in places that receive tons of sunlight throughout the day. They'll never say 'Oh no. this is too much sunlight for me' It will help them grow bigger in short time also produce tasty tomatoes in warm months of the year. I believe tomatoes are one of the best kind of plants to grow. They sprout fast, do photosynthesis easily with the sunlight they absorb and they'll give you one of the tastiest vegetables like red tomatoes. People eat tomatoes all the time without knowing. Most of the soups, sandwiches, burgers, salads always have tomatoes in them. Vegans love them even more. I can't live without tomatoes. I add them into everything. I make pizzas, sandwiches, salads even smoothies with them. Tomatoes are awesome =)

What Is Money?

Maybe you don't need too much money like everyone wants. Watch the video above and think. Money may not be the answer to everything. It just gives you more stuff that you probably won't need. Living a minimalist life might be the answer to happiness and fulfillment. Go Vegan, grow your own plants and garden, eat less, be minimalist. You'll see that you're lighter, happier and more fulfilled with a sense of purpose. Don't let survival instincts win you over for the hunger of money and stuff =)

What Happens When You Go Vegan?

Going Vegan is definitely one of the best things you can do in your life. I found a draw and talk app in AppStore. I started writing and talking about what happens after going Vegan. You absolutely find a sense of purpose in yourself when you go Vegan. You save so many animals just by not eating them. Think about that for a minute. People kill millions even billions of animals just to eat them. Animals in reality are never meant to be food for people. Plants, fruits, veggies, nuts of all kinds are the real food. Not animals. Please. How can people not understand this? You start a new stage in your life by going Vegan. You get a lot healthier in short time since most of the health problems are actually food related. A lot of people got rid of so many health problems like diabetes, hypertension, hearth disease, obesity and so many more diseases after they went Vegan. Going Vegan is amazing !!

Redwood Forest Is Magical

I'm amazed by these beautiful trees that exist in California forests. They create magical forests by standing so tall with so much beauty. Redwood trees are the tallest trees in the world. That makes Redwood forests one of the most beautiful forests in the world as well. Unfortunately these trees are dying and diminishing in short time. People cut so many of them in the past. These beautiful trees must survive. Only way to make them survive and grow in count is to plant them. So many forests even rainforests are dying. We must stop this. Once you the beauty of these amazing trees, you realize that we must also protect them.

Travel Like A Monk

I saw 3 monks in Florida that were traveling. Even monks travel a lot. I'm not sure where they get their money from. You cannot be working with all those orange clothes. I saw few monks at the mall in Florida before. They were shopping with bags and shoe boxes in their hands =D  I didn't know monks wear colorful running shoes under their traditional clothing. I made a video about it. These monks love traveling. They don't just pray in the mountain. I guess they were tired of it. Everyone needs adventure in their lives. I've been to many places in U.S and I filmed the nice places with my camera to make videos. I'm sure monks go to these nice places as well. They're probably from Nepal or close. Of course traveling in U.S is easier with a car. Just fill up and drive to go anywhere you like. Highways are convenient to drive on. They take you to most states by just driving straight. Of course my favorite state is Florida but I love New Orleans, LA, the state of Georgia too. There are nice places and things to do in those states and they aren't too expensive. Nice weather is another reason to be in South.

Last Day of Mardi Gras In New Orleans Full HD

This is the last day of Mardi Gras 2018. It was probably the biggest fun in New Orleans. The parades were bigger, parties were more fun that day. New Orleans offers great nightlife, things to do, Jazz music. One of the best times to go to New Orleans is during Mardi Gras. They throw beads, gifts and coins from colorful cars and from the balconies on Bourbon, Royal streets. So many tourists came to New Orleans for the Mardi Gras. Last day was crowded and fun. It was hard to walk on Bourbon street cause of the crowds. I didn't know New Orleans had one of the best nightlife scenes in U.S. Bourbon street, Frenchmen street, Royal and other streets offer great nightlife and club scenes. I filmed most of the things I've seen during Mardi Gras and made a video. You can click above to watch it.

  • Vegan Tzatziki
US Customary - Metric
Instructions
The day before or early that day:
  1. Cut the block of tempeh in half width wise so it makes two shorter blocks. 
  2. Boil in a pot of water for about 20 minutes. This cuts the bitterness from the tempeh.
  3. Meanwhile, make marinade by combining everything in a large container.
  4. Once the tempeh is done, allow to cool. Then cut into thin slices, about 1/8 inch thick. Using a very sharp knife will make this easier.
  5. Add thinly sliced tempeh into the marinade and allow it to soak for at least 4-6 hours, overnight is best.
Next day or later that day:
  1. Preheat oven to 350 F (175 C). 
  2. Take tempeh slices out of the marinade (save it!) and spread them out in a thin layer in a 9 x 13 baking dish. 
  3. Gently pour about 1/4 cup of the marinade over the tempeh slices. 
  4. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the edges are brown. 
  5. Meanwhile, slice the potatoes into thick french fry sized slices. I keep the skins on but you can peel them if you prefer.
  6. Place them in a bowl and cover with water to help remove some of the starch. Allow to soak for 5-10 minutes.
  7. Prep the tomatoes, red onion, lettuce and make tzatziki if you haven't yet. 
  8. Drain the potatoes and pat dry. Put them back in the bowl.
  9. Add broth, aquafaba or oil (whatever liquid you prefer) and salt. Mix well.
  10. Once tempeh gyro slices are done, remove from oven and cover with foil to keep warm. Set aside. 
  11. Turn the oven up to 450 F (230 C). 
  12. Spread the potatoes over a cookie sheet and bake for 30 minutes.
  13. When the potatoes are done, warm the pita bread in a damp towel for 2-3 minutes to soften. 
  14. Build your gyros with the tempeh gyro slices, potatoes, tomatoes, red onion and lettuce if preferred. 
  15. Drizzle tzatziki over the top and devour

Tour of Permaculture Community in Costa Rica

This place in Costa Rica is amazing. I'm so happy to see so many people are building Permaculture gardens all over the world, not only in U.S. Permaculture farming is a great way to grow your own food that will grow by itself for a while without much work. You only need to find the right seeds and start building your garden and farm. After some time, it will keep growing naturally. You can always find organic fertilizers that will feed your plants and trees. This place really looks amazing. Costa Rica has a tropical climate so they grow the right plants that thrive in tropical environment. It probably rains a lot there so you don't even need to water your farm.
