Eco Lodge A number of episodes ago I chatted with Kyle Taylor from Eco Lifestyle and Lodge [http://lifeinbarbados.podknows.libsynpro.com/barbados-sustainability-responsible-travel-to-the-paradise-island-and-how-eco-tourism-is-transforming-the-caribbean] about their boutique hotel with a focus on sustainability.

Yummy Mummies Do you remember back in a previous episode, I talked about a food delivery that I got from Yummy Mummies? Well, I decided to catch up with Ann Marie Leach [https://www.egiwomen.com/ann-marie-leech] for this episode and we get into a chat about options for high quality plant based food, whether you're on a self-catering holiday or living on the island. I also run down a number of other options for vegan friendly dishes! On insta?
