Hi everyone.

My name is Tamara and I am from Brooklyn, NY. Though I am not a vegan (I still eat chicken and fish), I have been taking the steps to live a more healthy and organic lifestyle. Why did I join this tribe you may be asking? Well, I am a big fan of the vegetarian lifestyle as true vegetarians have a focus on clean and healthy living. I am always looking for people with that mindset (unfortunately not many of my friends think that way). I've adopted some of the aspects of vegetarianism that I read in books but a lot of things can not be picked up by books but rather by talking to others and learning from others experiences. I hope you don't mind the intrusion.
