This New Travel Series Makes the Case for Taking a Whole Lot of Vegan Vacations

The new social media travel series, Wish You Were Here, produced by VegNews and hosted by Meg and Komie Vora alongside Harley Quinn Smith, showcases the best vegan hotspots and eco-friendly experiences across Northern California. The trio aims to provide a new, authentic perspective that goes deeper than traditional travel content, showcasing hidden gems and uplifting businesses that offer vegan options. The series highlights the importance of ethical and sustainable travel, emphasizing the need to support local communities, reduce waste, and choose environmentally-friendly transportation options.

Despite the misconceptions surrounding vegan and sustainable travel, the trio believes that anyone can explore plant-based options and reduce their environmental impact, regardless of their typical diet. They advocate for making sustainable choices both during transportation and once at the destination, such as supporting small businesses and cultural preservation efforts. As the series continues to expand, the hosts dream of taking Wish You Were Here to Japan and other parts of the world, highlighting the intersection of veganism with different cultures and cuisines.
