A Vegan Taste of Steamboat Springs Posted by:Lindsay S. Nixon Category: Travel

I’m hoping to put together a little veg guide for all the cities I live in. First up my last home: Steamboat Springs, Colorado.

Backpack Across Europe on $1,000 Posted by:Lindsay S. Nixon Category: Travel

On Monday, I blogged about living intentionally and how I'm living freely and traveling constantly because that is what I want more than anything.

A couple of times when I mentioned I spent a month (twice) traveling through Europe I've been met with responses like "must be nice to have that kind of expendable income" but I don't have expendable income. And I'm not rich.

Backpacking is actually very cheap.It cost me less to backpack for a month …
