40th International Vegetarian Congress San Francisco 2012

[Superflor]

Anyone thinking of going?

It's Friday 5th-Friday 12th October in San Francisco.

Then there is a Healthy Lifestyle Expo in Los Angeles from Friday 12th October to Sunday 14th and then a couple of days of international speakers and tours.

Thanks for posting this!

I am definitely interested and there is a good chance that I will be able to make it though I am not sure yet... Do you plan
on going?

[Superflor]

Yeah, thinking of going the first bit at least.

I would like to go and was thinking of making a trip to that part of America this autumn, anyway. However, it is a big step for me, as I've never travelled anything like that far.

Go for it Hiking Fox. Think they're gonna be putting some more travel on via Green Travel or something or other soon.

Interested (surprise surprise )! Still not sure if it's possible, but we'll see!

I hope you all can make it! If we were planning some sort of VF meet-up along with this then I'd definitely plan to go - and of course, I can help with planning such a thing.

Ps. I've been chatting online with an awesome veg*n Finn (whose living in Sweden) & my desire to visit over there just keeps growing!

I'm actually thinking of going to the 13th San Francisco World Veg Festival hosting the 40th IVU International Vegetarian Congress. The IVU, on that site, states they are putting together a package to tour San Francisco before and after the Veg Festival. That is really cool as I hate traveling for a presentation and seeing nothing of a new city other than the same hotel conference room . If money and time work, I will go. It would be a bonus to meet some of my brother and sister Euro & UK veg*ns, please come! . You can even make some money by bringing me over some good British tea .

Looks like it would be too expensive trip for our family. So, maybe some other year.
