My journey started ten years ago after watching Earthlings with my two little dogs at the time. I moved into being vegan slowly at first as I didn’t know too much about it back then.

 

I started doing the Cube late last year because being around like-minded people is helpful for your health and I like educating people whenever I can. I also do marches regularly and have an Instagram page that I do vegan activism through.

 

It makes you feel good that you are doing something to help the animals. I remember watching a young woman watch the Cube of Truth screens for about 20 minutes with tears running down her face. Most people who stop to watch are very supportive and not too many people give you any problems.

 

Veganism in the Illawarra is definitely spreading. You can tell by how many restaurants are including vegan options.

 

Being vegan has opened my eyes to pretty much everything we get lied to about. I think veganism definitely makes you more aware of everything. I believe I’m a better person than I used to be.
