New York’s not alone in the vegan scene. I’d also heard a lot about Berlin, Los Angeles, London, and Amsterdam. What I hadn’t heard about was … Continue reading A Prague Vegan’s Bible
By: Chloe Hum If you ever want to visit the heart of New York, don’t go to Times Square, go visit a local coffee shop. Baristas are juggling 10 things at once, students argue over the latest gossip, and caffeine-addicted individuals rush in-and-out of the shop, desperately seeking their next fix.
