Hello from Brighton!

Hi everyone,
Just thought i should delurk and say hi...

I'm a visiting student from the US at the University of Sussex. Currently I'm a Biochemistry major, but that's probably going to change. I decided to go vegan a few months ago after being a vegetarian for several years, without really considering that I should take it any further. I read a few books and realized it was ridiculous not to be a vegan, so I made the change and i've been happy with it ever since.

Brighton so far has been an awesome city to be vegan in, (especially considering I spent the summer in Las Vegas without access to a kitchen...very vegan unfriendly) ...anyone want to recommend cool places to see in Brighton or good restaurants?

Anyway, nice to meet you all.

Hi, welcome to the forum. Have a look at this (http://veganforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=5040) thread for info on Brighton. The first few pages might be out of date by now though.

hi there - interesting username!

- what does it mean ?

[HerbarianBand]

It's from a Syd Barrett song called "Octopus" which I had stuck in my head when I was registering. It's kind of random...I just liked the way it sounded.
