NorCal Vegan

Hey everyone!

Really excited to be here!

My name is Lyle, I have been vegan for 7 months and am lovin’ it. I’m interested in learning as much as I can about going raw and would like to start that journey when I feel the time is right.

I own a small business by the name of Vinyl Styles. We work mainly with MINI Coopers and wrap a lot of the interior/exterior trim pieces in vinyl. We do custom decals, striping, roof wraps, and more. On my down time, I’m reading as much info as I can on being vegan.

I live in Redwood City, CA (born and raised). My fiancee has just decided to go vegan with me yesterday (veggie 5 mo.) woot woot!

Sounds weird, but we would like to find some vegan friends/couples to chill with. It’s hard to go out with the non-veg’s ya know.

Glad to be here and can’t wait to learn A TON!!!

    Hey Lyle!

    I used to live in Humboldt. Now I am in the UK. I’ll be moving to Mt Shasta in the next few years. Welcome to GoneRaw. Glad to have ya!

    Check out my Raw website for some good, free start up information. No ads for superfoods either, just good info. Write me there if you ever have a question or ya just want to connect.

    Lovebows, Chris

  • you’re in my area kinda.

    I’m in San Jose (born and raised)

    Course, I’m still transitioning from SAD to raw – its a gradual but rewarding process for me so far.

    And I’m uncoupled.

    but Welcome!

  • Thank you for the warm welcomes.

    I’ve heard of some great vegan restaurants in San Jose. Still need to check em out.

  • I haven’t yet adventured to the vegan restaurants here – my friends are all SAD.

    I lived for 6 years in Santa Cruz while going to school and that area is very vegan friendly. Wish I had made the switch while I was there.

  • I’m farther north than you are (but know where Redwood City is). That’s great that you and your fiancee are pursuing healthy eating. My husband loves Mini Coopers (although he has an old Porsche and an Audi TT that he reconstructed after it was crashed in San Francisco :)). Anyway—welcome!

    ChrisCarlton—I’m up in Humboldt county myself (have been for 15 years now). Sounds like you moved from one rainy/foggy place to another :). I’ll check out your website.

    Congrats on goin raw!

    Welcome! Good for you for being vegan. The animals thank you.

    Have you checked on meetup.org for a raw meetup in your area? If not, you can start one up. Or just put some flyers up. You always run into the chance of meeting some weirdos but you might find some interesting weirdos at least!

  • Awesome!! Thanks Bitt.

    I found some local meets in my area through that site. Uber stoked ;)
