Julia & Shane – Think Plant-Based!

Julia

Hi!  My Name is Julia and I have been an active vegan since 2000.
I moved to Vancouver, Canada in 2008 from Berlin, Germany to pursue acting and art.
Along the way, I met my wonderful husband, Shane, and with him help create what you know as
Think Plant-Based.

Similarly, I have been helping to spread a plant-based vision in the community
through hosting many local Meetups with the group, Meatless Meetup.
I have always had a passion for cooking and helping people become a better version of themselves
so I decided to create this blog site to help spread new plant-based ideas!

Shane

Hi!  My name is Shane and I have only been vegan for a short time now.
I moved to Vancouver, Canada in 2012 from a small town in the interior of British Columbia.
From learning from my beautiful wife, Julia,  we have created what you know as
Think Plant-Based.

Growing up, I had horrible eating habits, no exercise routine and I was 50 lbs overweight.
Eventually, I started getting into fitness through DVD’s and running. Fast-forward to now,
I have better plant-based eating habits and a solid fitness routine that I have learned
over the many years of trial and error.

We believe a plant-based diet and nutrition, wellness, and fitness are a great synergy to a thriving healthy lifestyle.
