Here are some tips to eat a vegan diet and eat healthy while on vacation without much hassle

  • Bring Food Along: It is always smart to pack snacks. bring along some vegan cheese, pine nuts or hemp seeds to sprinkle on a salad, or make some raw fruit treats for the road
  • Research before Travel: It gets more difficult the further you travel outside the cities and tourist towns. You should do some researches before you go. Keep some vegetarian restaurants address in hand and ask your hotel to double confirm the address. Show it to taxi driver and then go.
  • Learn the Language: it is helpful to learn a few phrases in the native language. Assemble a list of basic vocabulary words that relate to foods vegans typically eat.
  • Offer Ideas at Restaurants: Restaurants try to accommodate patrons, but many wait staff are not always familiar with the needs of a vegan diet. It may fall to the guest to ask questions and make suggestions to help inform the staff.
