Raw greetings from Germany

Date: June 09, 2009 07:53PM Hello everyone,
I am from Germany, 27 years old, high-raw since 2005, and a reader of this site since 2006. As I thought one has to pay to register in this discussion forum, I never signed up. Now I checked it again, and realized that registration is for free. I am very glad to be able to comunicate with you now. First, some of your posts have been very helpful to me. Second, I might have some advice for people here, too. I always had a quite healthy lifestyle, but did not feel really really well. So I started to research on raw food on the web and found nice forums, advice, and a really great raw food community in the German city I lived then. Last year I moved, but I found new raw friends here in my new city, and I am really happy about that. About my diet: When I am on my own, I eat mostly raw food, and hardly ever buy other "food", but when I am on a party, potluck or with my boyfriend (we see each other only about every other weekend as he lives 500 kilometres away), I am not strong enough to stick only to raw foods yet. Usually I eat fruit and greens for breakfast, a salade in the canteen for lunch, and a homemade salade for dinner. I sometimes eat raw chocolates, crackers, cakes etc. 2 weeks ago I spend a weekend in London, Great Britain, and had the chance to visit some awesome raw food restaurants there. I also bought a jackfruit in an Asian store. Both are things I miss in Germany. There are only 1-2 raw resturants in the whole country, and the fruit selection in Asian stores is limited, and exotic fruits via internet companies that deliver to your home is expensive. I organized a raw potluck in my city for next Sunday, 14 June. We will be about 10-15 people plus their kids. I am keeping my fingers crossed that the weather will be nice and there will be no rain. So, enough about myself. I am curious to get to know you better, now. Helen Re: Raw greetings from Germany

Date: June 13, 2009 04:17PM I usually order direct, there are German mail-order companies that only sell directly to customers like
www.orkos.com www.keimling.de (Keimling's site is available in English, also) Often I order with a friend and we share the postage costs. Sometimes I also order at a wholesale company together with friends, but they only have nuts, seeds and dried fruits, no exotic fresh fruits. By the way, I am a reader of the magazine "Get Fresh!" (www.fresh-network.com). I can really recommend this magazine. Tomorrow is the potluck and I will report about it! Bye Helen Re: Raw greetings from Germany
