I’m escaping the approaching winter by visiting a friend in Bermuda. No matter where you go, there are options to get great foods for your healthy eating plan while traveling.
We wanted to give you a tour of some of the good spots here in Bermuda, to show that even on a tiny island you can find good stuff.
Most of the places we visited I looked up on Happy Cow before I left, although my friend Laura knew exactly where to take me.
We went to the ABC Natural Foods Store, where I found all kinds of vegan goodies and a big aisle of bulk grains, beans, nuts, seeds and seasonings..
Then we went to Down To Earth, another natural grocery store that also has a great selection of medicinal herbs (like burdock root), supplements and probiotics. They also have a fresh juice bar.
Next up was Juice ‘n Beans, a smoothie bar that also makes vegan and vegetarian burritos, samosas and soups.
We finished up our afternoon having lunch in a park listening to a local jazz band, as part of the city’s jazz festival.
So although traveling can sometimes seem daunting when you’re trying to eat healthy meals, it definitely isn’t!

There’s even an organic farm stand just up the road from me, where I stocked up on kale, collards, cucumber, peppers, sweet potatoes and other fresh veggies.
I also heard from the Vegetarian Society of Bermuda, unfortunately too late for us to get together, but if anyone’s heading down they have a fantastic resource for travelers and you can contact them at vsbda1@Yahoo.com or connect with them on facebook.
Another awesome place that I didn’t have time to get to is It’s Only Natural, which is an organic and natural food store, and they have a vegan eatery open on Fridays.
Do you use Happy Cow when you travel?
Let me know in the comments 🙂
