My name is Christina Marie, I’m a 21 year old student double majoring in Economics and Art History. I don’t do voodoo but I DO think being a vegan is quite a magical and transforming lifestyle!
The Name
The Voodoo Veggie Woman was a nickname that came about a few years ago from a friend who was amused by my enchanting outlook and my unwavering desire to be a vegetarian.
The History
I have been a vegetarian off and on for about ten years. I never really liked the taste of meat… land animals specifically and gave up eating cows, pigs and the sort for that reason and I despised milk. Throughout the first few years of college I was a Pesce-Vegetarian which meant I kept sea-food in my diet. I was worried that I wouldn’t be able to do veganism right. After a lot of research and reading a lot of disturbing and crazy things about fish-farming (check out Fishing Hurts if you don’t know what I’m talking about) I have decided let go of eating sea-food and animal products all together.
Why Blog?
Today, I start this blog because I have decided to go to the next step and live a complete Vegan lifestyle. This is my journal and I hope you all enjoy it and participate by leaving comments.
Muchos Besitos,
Christina
