About Me

Hello! My name is Amanda, but my friends call me Ducky.

I am a passionate vegan food blogger & YouTuber living in the Northern Rivers, Australia.

I love the way that food can bring people together & connect us to each other, and enjoy sharing delicious recipes on my YouTube and Instagram for you to try!

In my ‘offline’ life, I love playing netball, watching Survivor, being in nature, learning more about sustainability and spending quality time with my loved ones.

Thank you for being here!

With love,
Ducky x

My Vegan Story

My journey to veganism began as a young child when I asked my parents if I could go vegetarian. After a bit of back and forth, I was vegetarian from about the age of 8 until I turned 22 in 2015. It was then that I discovered the vegan community on YouTube, started visiting animal sanctuaries and watched the documentary Cowspiracy.

I gradually transitioned to being fully vegan over a handful of months and have not looked back! Whilst my reason for being vegan is wholeheartedly the animals and the environment, I am grateful for the benefit this diet has had on my health & relationship with food as well.
