I’ve made no secret of the fact that I really loved Gdansk, and something that certainly played a part in that was the food. One of the more difficult aspects of going vegan has been travelling; finding suitable places to satiate my everlasting hunger and stop the inevitable moodiness that results from having to eat… Continue reading Vegan eats in Gdansk
My idea of nightmare attire is probably a stiff, close fitting, traditional grey work dress.
