Travelling! I love it, and while I've been living abroad since August, I'm starting to crave travelling somewhere. Good thing I plan to be on the road for not less than 3 months this summer! I will travel with Martin, and we will go to Washington state and Portland in May/June! I'm really looking forward to it! Then we will go home to Sweden for a short time and reload, before going to Great Britain and
WWOOF! Volunteering for food and housing for about 6 weeks will be so much fun too! Until then, I wanted to share some food photos from some of my previous travels.

A portabello burger with onion rings and barbecue sauce at the Ultimate Burger in London 2006. |

Amaranth pudding with vegan whipped cream on top in Split, Croatia 2009. This was the first and only time I ate amaranth, and it was lovely! |
|
A typical meal on the train. Couscous prepared with cold water and |

One of the best things with traveling south - vegetable markets with loads of fresh and local produce. |

I've learnt that you will always be able to find vegan junk food in Germany. Pictured are some hot dogs and taco cheese. |
|
Berlin I love you! How could you not love a city that brings you vegan döner kebab and burgers at Yellow Sunshine? |
|
Turkey 2010. Fresh bread and sun warm strawberries eaten in a park. |

Falafel in Sofia, Bulgaria. We asked our couchsurfing hosts to write us a note that said "no yoghurt sauce" in Bulgarian, and when we showed it to the man at the falafel place he laughed a lot and gave us some extra falafel in a little box because he thought it was so funny. |

Halva! I love love love this treat. We ate it all the time in Turkey. It's great to bring along to hikes in the sun, since it wont melt in the heat. |
|
One of the great thing about staying with couchsurfers during your trip is that they might serve you fresh baked home made sour dough bread for breakfast. |
The amaranth pudding looks delicious and I love your story about the falafel. Now I want a little box of falafel :)
ReplyDeleteWow! I had to laugh about your food pictures from Germany. Of curse there had to be sausage ;)
ReplyDeleteCouscous with nuts and raisins sounds like a really wonderful travel snack. I'll keep that in mind.
Fun! You'll have to let me know when you'll be in Portland and if you're in need of a place to stay, I'm a CSer too!
ReplyDeleteTiffany: Yes I have! Although, most of the time I only eat bread and tomato sauce (cold and on the road) due to very limited budget!
ReplyDeleteTahinitoo: Yes it was awesome, everyone should get to have a little box of falafel.
Mihl: I ate that couscous on the train between Bologna and Venice, and it was surprisingly good. Remember to bring some salt though, I didn't. The nuts helped with that, but salt would have been a pleasant addition either way.
Andy Dufense: I will!
Sigh, I definitely have wanderlust right about now, as we've been snowed in for weeks on end it seems. All of your travel eats look incredible, I wish I was always so lucky!
ReplyDeletewhat an awesome summer you have planned! it looks like you have a knack for finding delicious food wherever you go!
