CARNIVORE TO VEGAN


Funny enough i was carnivore, grew up without VEGGIES or almost never eat any Vegetables. I only knew Corn and Spinach and for 25 years the ONLY FRUIT i ever ate WAS APPLE. 



4 years ago, i start to notice about world problem, starting with Palm Oil trouble that happen in my country. Destroying RAIN FOREST, and KILL ORANGUTAN! I got angry! And i got greedy of knowledge of what can i do to help the earth! 

STARTED by make all my presentation in University about world problem, - the blood diamonds- the PALM OIL (Say NO to palm oil by anthonsya sounti, you can still find in in Pretzy i think), and what we can do to stop the FUR in FASHION industry #FASHIONFORGOOD 😊🙏🏻, how I disagree with HERMES that skin the CROCODILE ALIVE to make handbags! And so on. 

A LOTS of my friends find my presentation to “GRAPHIC”, or Disgusting to show.
But if i dont take action to show them, WHO WILL? 

My love of Animals getting stronger when i lost my dog. And its breaking my heart and every of my bones.

Two years ago i started to eat many kind of veggies and try new fruits like strawberries and banana, oranges and other fruits, but still not stop eating meat yet. 

8 months ago, end of Fall, i found two baby kitten abandoned in the garden of my apartment building, cold, and freezing from rain and windy weather. They practically died a moment in there and i SAVED them. Me. This CLUMSY GIRL that think she’s destroy everything she touches, save kittens life.
I took them home. 

I watched a Video from my Favorite BEAUTY GURU, She turned Vegan years ago, and the video is about “LOVE ONE LOVES ALL” and i know i love animal (more then People I think)😅 and i gotta do something. This point i don’t complete stop eating meat, but i reduce. As person who never eat veggies before, i was kinda struggle to swallow and not get used to the taste! Hey! Don’t judge! I was really trying here. 😁

5 months ago i watched “Before the Flood” and its open my eyes and i started to watch a lot of Documentaries. 
I completely reduce my meat intake at this point. But i was with a guy who love Burger and cooking Chicken. So i ate meat only if he was around. I don’t declare my self as Vegetarian or so and I dont tell anyone i reduce my meat consumption or so. I wasn’t that committed at this point. I just tried my best.

Some in times ago He decided he doesn’t want to be around anymore. So in order to forget my misery, i need to got busy with my free time, so, i volunteer in farm and dogs shelter, and it’s completely changing my life... 

I meet a wonderful person, my FIRST (GIRL) FRIEND in amsterdam, her name is ALPHA and she have wonderful dogs called Magnus! I love them both! She’s vegan and she take me to wonderful vegan restaurant, and showed me that VEGAN can be YUMMY too. No more struggle of eating veggies. Even RAW FOOD TASTE AMAZING!  To be fair, last weekend is the first time i ate Grapes. And it was good :).

sometimes things that makes me struggle is people. i am still struggles, and really can’t stand my friends start to judge me for being a “followers”. But then.... This is my choices. And i am happy with it.
