About us

The world is full of stories. And so many of them can be found on a plate.

Hi, I’m Lini, the person behind The Vegan Explorer.

I’ve always loved the feeling of discovering somewhere new. Wandering through unfamiliar streets, learning about different cultures and, most of all, trying all kinds of food.

I've travelled to many countries in the last decade and decided to turn vegan 8 years ago. Since then I had to learn new cooking skills and be creative with the things I got. I tried to recreate all my favourite recipes in plant-based versions and was overwhelmed by how good and flavourful they were. 

I created The Vegan Explorer Mail Club as a way to bring that feeling into everyday life: a little journey that arrives in your mailbox once a month.

Why a letter?

Because there’s something special about receiving something made to be held.

In a world of emails, notifications and endless scrolling, I wanted to create something slower. Something you can open with curiosity, cook from, keep on your shelf and come back to later.

The Vegan Explorer Club is not about ticking countries off a list.

It’s about taking a little time to be curious.

To discover a new flavour.

To learn something you didn’t know.

And maybe, for one evening, to feel like you’ve travelled somewhere new.

A vegan journey around the world

Every destination is explored through a vegan lens, with recipes that are inspired by the country's food culture while being completely plant-based.

Some months might take you somewhere you’ve always wanted to visit. Others might introduce you to a place you’ve never thought about before.

Either way, there’s always a new country waiting in your mailbox.

Why vegan?

Because discovering the world should be delicious for everyone.

There are so many increndible dishes, ingredients and food traditions to discover around the world. I want to try them, celebrate them and share them - without animals having to suffer for it.

With a litte creativity, so many beloved recipes can be enjoyed entirely plant-based. I believe that enjoying great food and caring about animals don't have to be two different things. The Mail Club is my way of celebrating the wonderful food cultures of the world while showing just how delicious a plant-based journey can be.
