About

Bonjour, and welcome to Une Vie Saine!


My name is Gabriela and I’m recent college graduate with a huge passion for healthy eats and exercise. Though I was born and raised near Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, I currently reside in New York City, and try to take advantage of all that the city has to offer! This blog documents my best attempts to lead une vie saine- a healthy life.

To me, good food is one of life's biggest pleasures! I currently stick to a mostly vegan diet, with the occasional seafood or dairy. I'm not one for labels, so my tastes, morals and health all come into play when making mealtime choices. My favorite foods include nut butters, cereal, fresh fruit and vegetables, and of course, dark chocolate!


As a self-proclaimed cardio queen, running is my favorite form of exercise, and I've completed two half marathons. However, an old knee injury prevents me from running as much as I'd like to anymore, so I keep active with strength training, spinning, cross-training and plenty of fun classes!

My other interests include baking, reading, French and the Titanic (I’m a nerd!). And just like any other college student, I love hanging out with my friends and family. They mean the world to me!
