Oh man, we’re the same. Also vegan here and anti consumerist. I’m somehow lucky that my partner accepted to not exchange gifts for Christmas, and my family has adapted to include vegan dishes for Christmas. But coming from a meat eating culture, I’ve let go a lot of traditions behind. On top of that, I’m atheist from a religious country, and queer. Sometimes it can feel very alienating, but luckily I’ve found my own chosen family.
