Become a vegetarian
Trying it out 1 month ago

I’ve been thinking of becoming a vegetarian mainly because of the benefits for the environment… seems like the right thing to do. Not sure how long it will last, if it will be a week, a month, a year or even a lifetime. We’ll see.



Reduce my ecological footprint (read all 4 entries…)
Step Three: Become a vegetarian 1 month ago

I’m not sure how long I will last, but it feels like the right thing to do for now. Aside from being the healthierst option, it’s also the best for the environment.

Starting off as a vegan, eating no animal bi-products, but just for now. Later i’ll start eating dairy again, and gradually maybe seafood. Who knows how long i’ll last.



minimize my material possessions
Old clothes 1 month ago

Tragically in Japan there’s no Salvo’s or Vinnies bins where I can give my old clothes to charity, so I had to make do my giving away a lot of my old clothes and things to friends.

...and oddly enough, the stuff that they sell in Vinnies you can sell for a tidy profit here in Japan.
