Meeting for (aspiring) Vegans and Raw Foodists - Munich

Hello!!

I am living and studying in Munich at the moment and am trying to use diet to aid in healing a health condition which manifested a few years ago and has been difficult to resolve.
Following a vegan or vegan/raw diet can be tough for anyone .... especially where there is little support.

I would love to meet up with others who are aspiring to improve their lives through this kind of diet.
We could share information, personal experiences - difficulties and successes.

If you are interested in the idea of meeting for a Monthly Sharing Circle in a warm, quiet cafe this winter please PM me.

There are a couple meetups like that going already.

Probably easiest to just post to those.

Thanks for your reply.

Unfortunately both those threads seem to stop around mid-Sept with no ongoing meetings.

So if anyone is interesting in meeting up for a discussion, to share information, etc, please contact me via PM.

Thanks

What health issues are you trying to resolve by going vegan?

Hello,

I just wanted to let everyone know that I have received several PMs from people interested in a meet up which is wonderful.

I feel that with a couple more people we could have a great meeting very soon - perhaps before the end of this month.

So, if anyone (!!) is interested in learning and sharing about this way of eating/living, please do PM me.

Thanks

Hey!

I´ll be very happy to join the group of raw foodists :-)

I'm interested in joining this group. Let me know when you're meeting! And good luck

Hi there! This sounds good, been toying with the idea for a while to eat more raw/vegetarian food!This could be the inspiration I need! Would like to join in..

Hi all!

I just wanted to let you know we definitely have enough people interested now to have a great group gathering.

I have a few ideas for places to meet and will follow that up this week.

I am thinking an evening during the week (not Friday) might be the best time to meet to allow people who work to attend.
Alternatively, on a Sunday afternoon. (Remember, it's only once a month.)

I am open to any suggestions or advice, so don't hesitate.

Thanks so much to everyone who responded - and have a great week.

I'd be interested as well.

I had no luck finding a raw food place this past summer so ... maybe someone could host a potluck if nothing else pans out?

Hey what do you think about Thurdsday 26 November at about 19:30?

I´ve heard about a place in Schwabing, but I´ve never been there, anyway you can see the menu on the website (also in english!).

Have a look and let me know

Hello everyone,

Thanks for your suggestions. I looked at a few places and this is what I have come up with for our Monthly Meet Up ...

When: 6.30pm, Wednesday, 2nd December (and perhaps we can continue meeting up every first Wednesday of the month).

Place: Basic Restaurant/Cafe, located at the corner of Scheissheimer and Herzogstr (actual address is 129 Herzogstr) in Schwabing.

How to get there: you can walk quite easily from Hohenzollernplatz (U2) or take Tram 27 (from Karlsplatz) to Herzogstrasse.

This place is always really calm and relaxed, and the owner is happy to host us for a meeting.

I am hoping that we can begin this group with a kind of Sharing Circle where we can share personal experiences with eating vegan/living foods, and creating health in all aspects of life. I think it would be a good idea to have a focus for each meet up - something we can discuss on the 2nd.

I am also happy to bring some information about this kind of diet - please feel free to contribute in any way!!

By the way, the restaurant/cafe is not exclusively vegetarian or vegan, but there are vegan options (and a very limited selection of raw salad items). And it is organic.

It would be great to eventually host some potlucks (rawlucks!) between these monthly meetups.

I am really looking forward to meeting everyone!! Thank you so much
