My name is Rachel and I am an America-holic. I’m on a mission to visit every state — this summer I said hello to Florida, Alabama, Georgia and South Carolina, making my total 27.
My trip started in Destin, Florida, where I met my American ‘family’ from Kentucky. By family I mean the family of my friend Stephanie, who I met in North Carolina eight years ago. This summer they invited me to join them on their annual vacation to the beach resort of Destin. The beaches, the weather and the company were fantastic. My vegan highlights in their favourite places included a superfood salad at LuLu’s (Legendary Marina Drive, Destin, FL) where they went out of their way to accommodate me. Plus, I had a lovely tofu curry at Thai Tanic (Harbor Blvd, Destin, FL).
