My names Martin, I live in Orlando,FL. I'm a vegetarian but almost vegan. So far the only thing keeping me from being vegan is the cheese on the pizza I order :P. I've been vegetarian for a long time…Continue

Einstein Quote (One Of my Favorites)

Posted on June 16, 2011 at 4:42pm 2 Comments

"A human being is a part of a whole, called by us _universe_, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest... a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the… Continue

The following is an article I wrote for a local science centers newsletter:







Crocodilia, originating more than 200 million years ago in the late Triassic Period natives to the super continent Pangea. Fossils of these early crocodilians were among the first vertebrates to be scientifically studied by pioneers of paleontology in the early 19th century. Unlike present crocodilians, their predecessor's had longer limbs and shorter snouts, making them more equipped for a… Continue

This planet faces a host of problems. Everything from famine, disease, war, poverty, air and, water pollution and, global warming. And in the distant future problems on an astronomical scale. Our sun will die out, our Milky Way will collide with thee Andromeda galaxy and, our moon will reach past the boundaries of our orbit. Currently the citizens of this planet are divided. Divided by race, nationality, religion, social standing, any difference that another group does not agree with. These… Continue

Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.

When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.

All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor. Those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we… Continue

No I dont think it`s a virus but yes it will work out, needs to be fixed...

I also want to celebrate vacation, with them, but for them it`s different because they live there and I´m ´a tourist.´ Maybe next time I just need to plan my vacation differently also. But it´s just inevitable that when you live close to each other and visit each other daily that there´s a bit of control.

Seitan is good, and Falafel also, I have them occasionally. Seitan tastes and looks rediculously a lot like meat :s. I was kind of shocked the first time I tried it but there`s nothing wrong with it, no violence and suffering involved. Knowing that it`s absolutely cruelty - free makes it taste even better also, it`s just amazingly tasty.. but it did felt kinda strange in the beginning.

I actually don`t feel the need to use meat replacers so much because I don´t feel the need to ´replace´ something. And there are so many different and tasty dishes you can make without the use of meat replacers. How about you?

I used to make my wrap with Vegan Mozarella cheese or Vegan Cheddar cheese from Tofutti, they are good but last time they didn´t had it at the store so I thought I can also only use yeast instead and it was good! So now I only use yeast and don`t really use the vegan cheeses, or just more occasionally. Yeast is also often used as a `cheese replacer` so...

And sauce? Chili sauce tastes so good with it!

Wow, that is fascinating, amazing! I want to see that tree! PICTURES PLEASE!!!!!

The longest I stayed were 3 months...

I love my family and I love to be around them, the only thing I didn´t like was the control a bit.

That´s great (Y) Especially the Vegan spots and the beautiful beaches you have, I love to see nature, and of course the science center you volunteer in :) Remember to take pictures by the way!

Nice, it´s so yummy, you should definitely try it as a filling when you prepare wraps!

Do you like wraps?

Lol.. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Love_911

Aruba was awesome, just like a dream, gorgeous. I just love the weather and climate, Aruba has beautiful white beaches. and I like it´s rough nature. The people are very hospitable, What I like so much is that everything is so open and you are a lot outside in nature. And they have a Vegan restaurant: The Magic Mushroom Kitchen! (https://www.facebook.com/THEMAGICMUSHROOMKITCHENARUBA)  So next time I go to Aruba that will be the first place I´ll be going to visit lol.

What was your experience there?

Yes! I definitely want to explore Orlando one day! :)

When you make a rice dish you can also replace the rice for quinoa, I LOVE quinoa, so delicious. Whenever I make wraps (one of my favourite dishes) I almost always fill it with quinoa and lentils.Tastes good! Every time I make my wrap a little different so instead of beans and rice I tried quinoa and lentils.

I dont see me making a facebook account any day soon but I´ll keep that in mind :)

Hehe nice, last movie I have seen was ´Love 911´

No, not yet, I did went to Aruba a couple of times, where my family lives, and visited a few places in Europe but that was long time ago so I would want to see and explore more areas where I haven´t been yet.

Sounds good. I also like to eat noodles sometimes, but soupy style, it's quick, easy and yum. I always add a little bit of seaweed and shrub celery and maybe some vegetable broth, for extra taste :P

Well, I just like my privacy, there´s so much control. I just like to have a conversation with someone, that doesn´t have to be via Facebook. And I like to meet new (vegan) people as well. If I´ll ever use Facebook again it´ll be more to promote Veganism. And there is msn and skype, so for me Facebook is not necessary.

WAYN (Where Are You Now) is also a social media but just focusing on traveling: visiting new places and meeting people from all over the world and sharing tips and ideas and experiences.

Of course not, that´s sweet of you to say, thank you :)

Hmmm that one looks delicious with caramel, Is there sugar in it? Cause I try to avoid sugar. Cookies? I thought it was ice cream lol.

Sure :)

Oh, and thanks for liking my profile :)

I can´t see it cause I´m not a member of facebook but that´s okay. I was a member once before but I like Volentia and WAYN better. But I googled you. You have a long list of likes, more than 710 :O. Animals are here with us, not for us :)

Yes I watched that one too, I think that´s very special what you did for your friend, what a nice way to honor him. Very wise words indeed.

Yep, they look tasty!

At 2:39pm on May 22, 2013, Linda said…

That´s horrible :( What I meant was; it´s nice being among animals.. That must be horrible for you to see that and participate in. But you also have to feed the reptiles in the store then :s, or don´t they have reptiles? Maybe you can apply at the Artichoke Red Vegan Market instead?! If you haven´t already.. Or at a Vegan restaurant nearby?

Yes, I visited the website, pitty I can´t actually see the products though..

Lol, must be very tasty then :P

Yeah, okay, let me see! 

 

Yes! I liked what you said about being grateful, that's where it all starts.. 

ONE LOVE, including the animals!

Yeah, it has been long enough, lol..

Well that´s a nice side job.. Why do you wanna get out? Good way to roll in indeed, I hope you get that paying position one day.

I´m Pedagogical worker, I work with children (age 0-13) in a daycare center, I always worked there but with the crisis here especially in this sector they had to fire people and I was a flexworker so they always go first, you know how it goes.. So right now I´m searching for sidejobs as well, so I can at least work more hours.

Thanks for the offer that would be nice for sure, I´ll contact you then :)

That´s great!

I´d love to enter that Artichoke Red Vegan Market and nose around, amazing..

I never had a (Vegan) Twinkie in my life lol, I never heard of it until I saw the movie Beethoven when I was little, (that part where that girl fed the dog a Twinkie). It sounds funny as well. But a Twinkie is like a cake right? With creamy filling, sounds delicious..

I haven´t seen your videos yet so I´m going to right now..

At 4:01am on May 19, 2013, Linda said…

You are such a flirt lol.

I´ve been living here for so long now, I just want to live in another area.

What kind of work do you do by the way?

That sounds just like a dream where you live, definitely on my list of places Í'm going to visit one day! And you have good weather and beautiful beaches too! Maybe you can send me a few pictures of the area you live, and the vegan spots, that would be nice, you made me curious!

Thanks for the link, will check it out :)
