Hi I'm Raw Gypsy!

I am a raw foodie, meaning that I eat mostly foods that have not been heated about 45 degrees celcius. I believe that what I put into my body has a huge direct effect on how I feel, and eating clean, fresh, raw foods makes me feel great! Therefore I also eat as much organic and local as possible. While these are my general guidelines, I also feel that being flexible is important, enjoying food is really important, and not stressing too much about food is really really important!

I call myself a raw foodie and not foodist, as many others do, because I find that personally the "foodie" part is just as important to me as the "raw" part. I adore food, and I get a lot of pleasure from it. It's certainly true that food is medicine, but food is also sensuality, comfort, sociability, conviviality, flavor, culture....

I live in Brunswick, Victoria. I'm pretty new to Melbourne. I like going to the CERES farmers market, and am eager to explore other great markets and ethical restaurants/cafes in the area.

I'm eager to share my ideas and learn from all of you lovely people who care so much about ethical food!

hey there!!

We got us a NZ raw foodie here, hope you guys can exchange ideas.

welcome to the site, dearie!!
