My visit here in Brisbane, Australia is coming to an end and I’ve been pleasantly surprised by the amount of vegan groceries available in the larger supermarkets.
Following on from my post about vegan finds in the shops a few days ago, here is another bunch of plant-based supermarket items I’ve seen during these past few days.
If you find yourself needing to shop for that special vegan in your life but are struggling to come up with exciting ideas, I’ve pulled a few festive ideas together to help you out.
I’ve been hosting and helping to run events in London for about 15 years.
A huge focus of my activism is to create social spaces that help people feel celebrated within their choice to explore veganism, while also garnering support for independent businesses.
As 2025 comes to an end and we start looking toward the new year, I wanted to remind you of some of the events I am involved with in the hope I’ll see you there.
I’m not afraid to make bold statemnts on this blog. I have strong opinions and I rarely hold my tongue, instead I’m happy to blurt out what comes to mind.
And today I want to continue this tradition of speaking freely and tell you about my favourite vegan restaurant on the planet. Yes, my number one restaurant.
Have you been watching season 5 of Stranger Things?
Josh and I have and we share our thoughts on the hit Netflix show in the latest episode of Tell Me Where I’m Going (Wrong). We chat about our feelings for the story develpments, actor aging, and how we think the sci-fi show will end.
We also discuss how the Lily Allen album West End Girl means we can never look at David Harbour the same way again.
You can watch/listen to the full episode on YouTube:

Returning to Brisbane after so many years away is something I have always approached with a mix of curiosity and caution.
This is the city that shaped me, confused me, challenged me and, at times, hurt me. It is also the city I left in order to make sense of the world on my own terms. Coming back has never felt simple, but this time something felt different, and a big part of that difference has been seeing Brisbane through a vegan lens.
I am in Brisbane, Australia visiting friends and family so of course I’ve allowed a lot of time to explore the vegan groceries available in supermarkets.
Take a look below at some of the plant-based things that have caught my eye this week.
The blog post today is a bit of a strange one and even though it originates from an experience in Brisbane, it definitely raises a topic people everywhere can chime in on.
