About Us

Our names are Benjamin Hagerty and Brianne Nemiroff. We’re a married couple originally from California. Since we became a couple in 2009, we have always been passionate about travel, both locally and abroad. We were inspired to take a long-term trip in 2017 to explore more of Canada and the U.S. and we soon realized that this wasn’t just a lengthy trip, but a new lifestyle choice, and that we were destined to explore.

An #ethicaltravel couple helping you explore the world without sacrificing your #vegan lifestyle.

We finished our quarantine and we are now allowed

We finished our quarantine and we are now allowed to join the Vancouver community! But, there’s still COVID-19 so we’ll still be sticking to nature walks, errands, and take-out only.
Today, we braved Whole Foods. It was BUSY as it was 2 days before Christmas. We also picked up juices, smoothies, and wraps from @heirloomjuiceco. This is the Vegan Tempeh Caesar Wrap. It was clean, filling, not overly saturated with dressing, and had a lovely smoky tempeh.
Do you have recommendations for places to visit and restaurants to try? Let us know in the comments!

2020 was a very important year to show support for

2020 was a very important year to show support for our favorite small businesses. During the holiday season, it's even more important as we all love to gift something special to our loved ones. If you're near the #KansasCity area, or are passing through it, we HIGHLY recommend stopping by @mudpiebakerykc and picking up as many baked goods as possible. They are all #vegan and many of them are #glutenfree.
We had the joy of interviewing one of the owners, Ashley Valverde. We asked about how they develop their menu, what it's like having a vegan business in a not so vegan-friendly city, and how they've managed to stay safe and in business during the pandemic.

Photo is from 2018 when we enjoyed their delicious muffins and scones while on a break during a long day of exploring.

NEW BLOG POST: Are you currently dreaming about #N

NEW BLOG POST: Are you currently dreaming about #NewEngland but don't want to visit a big city like Boston this time of year? We may have a better option for you!

If you're in the area or are planning on visiting after the fall foliage is over to avoid the crowds, we highly suggest visiting @goprovidence. It's a small city, easy to navigate, and they have PLENTY of vegan options that are available for take-out as well as many beautiful outdoor opportunities.

We know we all have different opinions about traveling right now. Since the US is not handling COVID properly, we are still abstaining from traveling. However, if you have the means and the empathy to do it safely and kindly, by all means enjoy and support small businesses!

Are you a long-time vegan? Vegetarian or flexitari

Are you a long-time vegan? Vegetarian or flexitarian? Maybe just vegan-curious as you see the health benefits or because vegan food is SO much better than it used to be as it’s hit the mainstream.
Just a decade ago, many people (even us!) had never heard of veganism but by 2015, we were sold. Over the years, millions of other people have become vegan and the plant-based meat market has exploded! One of the most recent brands to join the party is @PureFarmland and we’re so excited to have received some of their newest additions to their line.
We plan to use these bad boys to make a hearty pasta dish with roasted tomatoes and peppers, and gorgeous #vegancheese.
How would you use these meatballs? Let us know in the comments!
Watch our stories to take a look at their breakfast patties, too!

We just published a new guide to vegan restaurants

We just published a new guide to vegan restaurants in @goprovidence! 🥗🍜🥨🥟🍩☕️🥡
Providence has the world’s first vegan food mall (by @matthewkenneycuisine of course), @eatbychloe, an incredible organic vegan ice cream shop @likenoudder, stellar donuts @pvdonuts, coffee milk at @davescoffee, and lots of international cuisine!
The photo here is from 2017 when we were at Veggie Fun, a Pan-Asian Vegan Kosher restaurant in #downtownprovidence.
Save this post for later and swoon over these goodies by clicking on the link in our bio now. 🤘❤️🌿💚

Our latest blog post in our Kind Conversations col

Our latest blog post in our Kind Conversations column: an interview with Michael Moyer, the co-owner of @citizeneatery in #austintexas.

Citizen Eatery is run by a husband and wife team, Mike and Aimee. Mike talks to us about their biggest wins as business owners, what they bring to Austin’s vegan restaurant scene, and how the pandemic almost made them close their doors for good.

With every interview we do, we hope we can draw attention to many of our favorite small businesses and restaurants while travel is still not encouraged.

Today is a VERY special day. You might have already seen the hashtag floating around Instagram. Yes, it's #NationalCoffeeDay!

All jokes aside, it's also Ben's birthday! Since he's a big coffee lover, it's a no-brainer to write a post about our favorite vegan-friendly coffee shops in the U.S. and Canada in honor of our favorite redhead.

Whether you're looking for recommendations for a road trip or want to support more vegan-friendly businesses in your area, here's a list that mentions cafes from Portland, Oregon all the way to Halifax, Nova Scotia.

🍔NEW BLOG POST🍔 Kind Conversations with Jaso

🍔NEW BLOG POST🍔
Kind Conversations with Jason Antony of MeeT Restaurants.

MeeT currently has three locations in Vancouver ⁠— @meetonmain, @meetgastown, and @meetinyaletown. Even though Vancouver has plenty of vegan competition in the city, MeeT’s comfort food is surely unmatched to others in the area and is a favorite among travelers and locals alike.

We talked to one of the three owners, Jason Antony, about how the owners came together to launch a vegan restaurant group with influence, their hopes to expand, and why their menu has managed to attract crowds while other restaurants have come and gone.
