TIGERS FOR SALE - THE HORRIBLE LIFE OF TIGERS IN ASIA
Tigers for sale in Asia? Yes, it's possible. My name is Anna Wasilewska and I created the Orientana brand. My brand is based on Asian ingredients. Maybe you've heard of it? These are natural cosmetics. The idea for the brand and the ingredients come from Asia. I spent a lot of time there. Since the beginning of my travels around Asia, I have most enjoyed going to places where I could peacefully admire Asian nature and see Asian animals in the wild. I have seen orangutans, elephants, tapirs, various birds and insects, but I have never managed to see a tiger, although the tiger is a typical inhabitant of Asia - Asia is its homeland. The largest wild population lives in India, and in some states of India tigers are considered sacred animals. Just 150 years ago, there were quite a few of them in Asia – apart from India, the tiger lived in Bangladesh, Indonesia, Malaysia and Thailand. Unfortunately, today there are fewer than 4,000 tigers in the wild. That's 3% of the population that once inhabited these areas. Of the 9 subspecies of tiger, only 5 survived until 2020. Read that again – fewer than 4,000 tigers survived until the 21st century! And according to experts, we only have 10 years to save this species from complete extinction. TIGERS FOR SALE - HUNTING Before we realized that the tiger population was decreasing, it was an animal that was killed for sport. Trips to Asia to take part in hunting were popular. Today, it is illegal to hunt tigers, but this ban was introduced too late, in 1971, and there are still no effective ways to limit poaching. And it was not until 1986 that the tiger was recognized as an endangered species. The sad truth is that we all contribute to the drastic reduction of the tiger population to some extent. The main reason for this is the predatory economy of large producers - cutting down forests and converting them into agricultural fields or factories, which causes its extinction. For example, in Sumatra, where the jungle is cut down to grow palm trees for the production of palm oil (check if you have products with this ingredient at home!) the tiger population has fallen drastically and is no longer reproducible. Poaching is still a significant threat. Did you know that there are still people in the world who want a tiger skin on their living room floor or a tiger fang on their desk? The skin of a Bengal tiger, the most beautiful one, reaches a dizzying price of 60 thousand euros on the black market and there are still people interested. Horrible, right? TIGERS FOR SALE - NATURAL MEDICINE The use of powdered tiger bones in natural medicine is still a significant threat. Although the World Federation of Chinese Medicine Associations has widely reported that there is no evidence of the effectiveness of tiger preparations, the belief in its power is still great. And despite the fact that in 1993 the Chinese government banned the use of tiger preparations, it recently overturned this decision. The Chinese authorities decided that tiger bones can be used as long as they come from a farmed tiger. However, it is difficult to monitor the origin of a tiger, and we know that there are organized gangs that kill animals in the wild and smuggle tiger body parts to drug manufacturers. Do you remember the story about the tigers saved by the Poznań Zoo? Today we know that these tigers were riding to certain death. They were farmed tigers, and the recipient was waiting for their bones. TIGERS FOR SALE - SANCTUARIES FOR TOURISTS You can read about the dark side of Asian tourism, which treats wild animals, including tigers, as objects in my previous post. Tigers are kept in so-called "shelters" where tourists can take pictures with them. They live as slaves of the tourism industry - previously taken from their mothers, kept in scandalous conditions, stuffed with sedatives and released to tourists, who smile and take selfies with them and then post them on social media. So many people do not know that they contribute to the extinction of tigers with a single photo. That's why I really liked Instagram's campaign. Instagram announced that it is adding content warnings to selfies that include wild animals, such as tigers. The English hashtag "tiger selfie" is monitored by Instagram, and when you search for it, an educational message appears about what such a selfie really means. Usually, a warning appears that says: "You are looking for a hashtag that may be associated with posts that encourage harmful behavior towards animals or the natural environment." Tinder is also carrying out a similar campaign because it turns out that selfies with wild animals are quite fashionable on Tinder. Tinder and Instagram are not currently removing selfies, but Instagram has begun removing images that depict animal abuse or the sale of endangered animals and is working with organizations including the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) and TRAFFIC on enforcement. It is sad how we humans do not respect nature, how we exploit it and how we have taken over the lives of animals. Not only in Asia.

ASIAN ANIMALS AND THE DARK SIDE OF TOURISM
Asian animals - we all love them. My post is inspired by photos on Facebook. I have to speak up. When visiting the colorful and natural rich Asia, we often have the opportunity to "be close to nature" in a way that harms it. In most cases, we are not aware of this, which I know from conversations with friends. Your intentions are pure, but you do not know that getting close to an Asian animal harms it. If you take a selfie with an animal, pet it or ride it – be careful, because the life of this animal is not at all pleasant, and is often cruel. We often deal with the so-called "animal exploitation", i.e. the use of animals by humans mainly for the purpose of profit. Often "animal sanctuary" – sounds nice, but is not true. According to the data I had access to, around 550,000 wild animals worldwide suffer from exploitation in the tourism industry. This number terrifies me. Education is needed – I hope you will help me and share this post widely. BELOW ARE SOME EXAMPLES RIDING AN ELEPHANT A very popular attraction in Thailand and I see from Facebook posts that tourists brag about it. Don't believe that the elephants you meet in seemingly open spaces in so-called refuges or parks have been saved or that people are helping them in some way. Usually these are elephants kidnapped into captivity, beaten to the point of bleeding with sharp-tipped stakes, trained until they become obedient. After an elephant carrying visitors around Angkor Wat died of a heart attack and the case was publicized in the media - elephant rides were stopped there, but you can ride them elsewhere. Let's not do this. Would you also like to live in captivity and carry burdens on your back? STARFISH AND OTHER SEA ANIMALS Never take them out of the water for photos. Starfish die when they are out of the water even for a few seconds. The skin of a starfish is thick, but it has a stomach on top. When taken out of the water, the water from the stomach will flow out and only if you skillfully put it back the other way will the air escape from the stomach. Otherwise, the air will remain inside causing severe pain. In Asia, we have the opportunity to dive and watch beautiful water landscapes. We can see colorful, wonderful creatures up close. What we admire was often created by nature for a very long time, and it is so easy to destroy it. A colorful reef is created for decades and is a shelter for thousands of creatures. And it can be destroyed in a second. Let's not touch and take nothing with us except the water. SELFIE WITH A TIGER It's wonderful to see tigers in the wild, but it's difficult and complicated. That's why attractions like tiger "shelters" have been created, which pretend to help animals, but in reality it's a typical tourist business. They are popular in Thailand, where even franchises of such centers have been created. Their goal is to make a profit, not to benefit the tigers. The fee of a dozen or so dollars to get close to a tiger is not high, and you can also choose a tiger - from a young one to an adult. Has anyone ever wondered how it is that tigers are so gentle and willing to sit quietly, and people are taking pictures with them? Firstly, the young ones are taken from their mothers, often very early, and raised by people. This means that they are doomed to complete dependence on humans for food and will not be independent in the wild. Tigers are kept in cages all day long, except when they are taken for photos. In most cases, they are also stuffed with medicines and drugs that make them calm and as if asleep. Is a selfie with a tiger worth its captivity? SWIMMING WITH DOLPHINS I don't mean something as obvious as dolphinariums or water amusement parks where animals are trained, but swimming in a seemingly open space, which may seem harmless. Dolphins are freedom-loving animals that are constantly moving in water. Wild ones will not swim to shore. In facilities offering dolphin swimming, very often dolphins are kept in small pools, surrounded by ragged, rusty fences or near sewage canals or in a shallow lagoon so that they cannot swim away. They may be fed with rotten fish and suffer from disease and starvation. Most foreign facilities capture their dolphins directly from open water. Capture is very traumatic for wild dolphins and can cause an often fatal disease called stress capture. COFFEE PLANTATIONS - LUWAK COFFEE This is the most expensive coffee in the world, and a lot of it comes from Bali. It is literally coffee made from the poop of an animal called luwak. Coffee used to be made from the poop that occurs in nature, but due to the increase in demand, the "production" has been industrialized. The animals are kept in small cages like caged chickens, they are sad and unhappy. They never go outside to the grass and are forced to eat an unnatural amount of food so that they produce a lot of poop. All so that people can drink this expensive coffee! I hope that this post has opened your eyes a little. When I created the Orientana brand, I assumed from the very beginning that I would produce cosmetics that were not tested on animals (even before the European Union ordered it) and that were created without any harm to animals. Keep in mind that similar "attractions" with animals appear on every continent. So share this post because I would like this information to reach as wide an audience as possible.

IS IT WORTH VISITING ECOCUDA?
On November 16 and 17, my Orientana brand took part in the Ekocuda natural cosmetics fair in Warsaw for the umpteenth time. We have been associated with this concept from the very beginning – for seven years! I remember that the idea worked right away and there were crowds of visitors and buyers at the Jabłkowski Brothers House from the first edition. A few years ago, the natural cosmetics market was already on the rise and it was obvious that there was a great interest in cosmetics as well as a growing number of producers and importers. Today, there are even more of them! And this time, for two days, there were crowds of enthusiasts of natural cosmetics at the Centrum Praskie Koneser. This year's autumn edition was attended by about 200 companies and was visited by about 27,000 people. Most of the exhibitors are still small brands, for which it is a great place to present themselves. For customers, it is a great opportunity to test different natural cosmetics in one place. NATURAL SOAPS. BODY SCRUBS AND BODY BUTTERS The largest number of exhibiting companies offer natural bar soaps. Soap is the easiest cosmetic to make, although it is laborious. The offer of exhibiting companies was dominated by various types of soaps, with different scents and colors. There were also many body scrubs and balms. These types of cosmetics are relatively easy to make without major investments in production. They have simple recipes and practically anyone who has time and buys the right ingredients can make these natural cosmetics at home. Larger brands presented their new products. Orientana showed the latest natural Glow masks . MEETING WITH AN EXPERT For many customers, Ekocuda is a way to get to know the cosmetic brand but also to get professional cosmetic advice. Not to be unfounded - the best experts have been working at the Orientana stand for years. These are not random people but those who know everything about our cosmetics, have a cosmetic education and can find a solution to the most difficult problem. They will help you set up natural face, hair and body care. Did you know that all of our girls who are not blondes dye their hair with henna? From them you will learn how to use henna, what to pay attention to and how to choose colors. After all, practice makes perfect! We have had a permanent team for years and I can vouch for their knowledge with my hand on my heart. ECOLOGICAL ZERO WASTE SOLUTIONS Ekocuda is not only a fair of natural cosmetics but also a fair of ecological solutions and a natural lifestyle. For some time now, the Stojo company has been exhibiting at the fair, offering cups. This is a product that will allow us to be zero-waste. You will no longer need a plastic or paper cup, for example, for coffee. I have had my Stojo cup for about a year, I carry it in my purse because it folds to a height of about 2 cm. If I need it, I simply take it out, stretch it, put it under the coffee machine and close it. It is airtight and has allowed me to free myself from disposable cups. I recommend it! My attention at Ekocuda was caught by the Plantale brand, which makes pillows stuffed with plant ingredients. In the offer you will find pillows with buckwheat husk, spelt husk, emmer husk, and even cherry pits! These plant fillers come from certified crops and have health properties. First of all, they perfectly adapt to the shape of the body, fill the space under the neck and thanks to this, keep the spine in a straight position, relax tense muscles, help get rid of migraines and give better sleep. Sounds naturally ideal! In addition to typical pillows, they also have hot water bottles with cherry pits, which you heat up in the oven and put on (they are long) like a scarf around your neck. I tried such a pillow - it relaxes the muscles incredibly. It is a must-have for people suffering from back pain! I also recommend buying beeswax wraps on Ekocuda – they are a great alternative to aluminum foil and disposable bags. Easy to use, reusable and natural. I have been using mine for years. Ekocuda is a natural cosmetics fair that also takes place in other cities. You can also participate in them in Poznań and Gdańsk.

COMMERCIAL BREAK
At the end of last year we took part in a fantastic photoshoot – of course with Orientana cosmetics in the lead role! Friendly and professional models Mayu and Magda, under the watchful eye of an experienced director, gave it their all! The session took place in a nice atmosphere and the models, who had previously had the opportunity to test our cosmetics, did not have to try too hard to evoke positive emotions on their faces, because they loved Orientana from the first use? It was also very interesting for us to observe the stylist at work, who perfectly selected the outfits for the girls, as well as the hairdresser and make-up artist. As you know, Orientana is natural cosmetics , but the camera and the camera have their own requirements and sometimes it is necessary to gently even out the skin tone or properly style the hair so that it looks perfect in the photos and film. The inventive scenography, great music and inspiring atmosphere made the session a real adventure for us. In addition to unique and original photos, advertising films were also created! You can judge for yourself the results of the work of the entire team involved in this amazing project. We invite you!

OUR ECO EDUCATIONAL CAMPAIGN AMONG STUDENTS
In March, at the Edward Żółtowski Public Junior High School in Mochów and at the January Insurgents' Primary School in Ligów, an educational campaign took place under the slogan: "Cosmetics from Nature", in which we had our share! The middle school students carried out a project under the same title as part of the campaign. The task of the task teams was to develop answers to the following questions: What features should an ideal facial cosmetic have? What ingredients do conventional cosmetics contain and what do natural cosmetics contain? What do we pay attention to when buying body care cosmetics? The history of the development of cosmetology Chemical compounds used in the production of cosmetics and their effects Cosmetics from a natural pharmacy, or plants in modern cosmetology The students developed the answers in graphic, artistic and multimedia forms. ACTION GOAL The aim of the campaign was to familiarize students with the composition of conventional cosmetics and natural cosmetics for body, hair and face care. The presence of parabens, silicones, foaming agents: SLS, SLES, petroleum derivatives and their effect on the skin condition was indicated in drugstore cosmetics. It was noted that scientists are divided on the issue of their safety. Natural cosmetics are produced using plant-based ingredients obtained from controlled organic farming! ORIENTANA BRAND SHARE Orientana provided the school with materials that were helpful in conducting the campaign, such as catalogues, leaflets and testers. We are glad that we could play our part in this eco-education of these young people. It is great that we teach ecological awareness from the youngest age and explain the differences between natural products and those commonly available – chemical ones. We should explain to our children the negative impact of chemical and artificial ingredients and help them make choices in harmony with nature. Let them become ecologically aware consumers! Bravo to Ms. Ewelina for her great commitment to eco-education and great ideas!

WHAT IS INDIAN CUISINE
Indian cuisine? It seems like we know it. But do we? I spent many hours with my Indian friends talking about the dishes typical of their region. I spent a lot of time in India exploring and learning about Indian cuisine. India is a diverse country - each region has its own language, culture and cuisine! Different culinary regions combine plants used in the kitchen such as chili pepper, mustard, cumin, turmeric, fenugreek, ginger, garlic, cardamom, cloves, coriander, cinnamon, nutmeg, saffron, rose petals, curry powder and asafoetida (a strong-smelling spice). These ingredients are used in different combinations in different regions. Most of them are also ingredients of Orientana cosmetics Indian cuisine is divided into 4 regions North Indian cuisine is probably the most widespread culinary style outside India. It reflects a strong Mughal influence and is characterised by the significant use of dairy products: milk, paneer (an Indian mild cheese), ghee (clarified butter) and yoghurt are all used regularly in the region's dishes. Samosas, fried dumplings stuffed with potatoes, are a characteristic northern snack. Also popular here are dishes from the clay oven, tandori, roasted meat or naan bread, which have a characteristic charcoal aroma. The cuisine of the West Indies is made up of three main regions: Maharashtra, Gujarat and Goa. Due to its location, fish and coconut milk dominate the cuisine of Maharashtra, while Gujarat cuisine is mainly vegetarian, and many dishes have a sweet flavor due to the influence of Chinese dishes. The region is well known for a dish called chutney. These are slightly spicy preserves made from fresh or pickled vegetables and fruits. They have a sweet, sour or quite hot flavor. Goa was once a Portuguese colony, but today it has a unique blend of Indian and Portuguese culinary elements. Due to its coastal location, fish is popular here. East Indian cuisine is the realm of desserts. Desserts from this region are often found in Indian restaurants outside India because of their wonderful taste. Rasgulla is very popular - a sweet delicacy made of porridge and cheese (chenna), cooked in a light sugar syrup. Mustard seeds, poppy seeds and mustard oil dominate in Eastern cuisine, giving dishes a slight spiciness. Rice and fish also play an important role here. South Indian cuisine is not usually found on Indian restaurant menus and is very different from other regions. Here, curry sauce has a different consistency – more solid than liquid. Sambar, rasam and kootus are three popular stew-like dishes, differing in their basic ingredients and degrees of liquidity. Sambar is a stew of peas and vegetables with a tamarind flavour. Rasam is more like a soup and consists mainly of tomatoes, tamarind and lots of spices. South Indian cuisine is famous for its delicious fried or steamed snacks. This is where Dosa comes from, which I love and which I have already written about on the blog. Utthapams are also popular here – similar to pancakes, but thicker and filled or topped with vegetables. In this region, we can eat very healthy idlis – steamed, as well as vadas, similar to doughnuts with a hole. I hope you are hungry now

EKOTYKI - NATURAL COSMETICS FAIR
Last Saturday, September 30, we had the opportunity to visit the autumn edition of Ekotyki - Natural Cosmetics Fair. The event took place in a well-known place in Krakow - Forum Przestrzenie. Such events show how strongly and dynamically the natural cosmetics market is developing. On the Western market, the trend of natural cosmetics is no longer a niche, their sales and popularity are increasing twice every year. It is slowly becoming a mainstream trend in Poland, which we can see from the popularity of such fairs, among others. This trend is also starting to be clearly visible on drugstore shelves, where separate shelves are already being allocated for natural care. We are very happy that buyers are starting to attach such great importance not only to healthy food, but also to what they feed their skin. It is impossible not to notice how much awareness and knowledge of customers about the composition of cosmetics is growing, we no longer want to lubricate our skin with unnecessary chemicals, parabens, silicones, wash our hair with harmful surfactants. Each of us wants to know not only what we eat, but also what we use to care for our skin. That is why we read the ingredients with great care, attention and curiosity. Due to the great interest in the first edition of the Ekotyki Fair, which took place in March, it was decided to organize an autumn edition as well. A lot of you showed up in March, but this year the turnout was definitely even bigger. Our stand - the Orientana stand was very popular with you, there were a lot of questions, and we tried to tell each of you as much about our products and brand as possible. You came with your families, friends, neighbors, your significant others. It's wonderful to see that what we do makes sense! We create cosmetics addressed specifically to your needs, we want to help you take care of the beautiful, healthy appearance of your skin, we take great care of the quality of our products and we are extremely pleased with your positive reception! Thank you for such a large attendance and shopping at our oriental stand. And we hope to see you at the next edition of the Ekotyka Fair!

TEN NOVELS WITH INDIA IN THE BACKGROUND WORTH READING
As it is still the holiday season, some of us have more time to read. Books have been my hobby since childhood and I got to know many countries by reading novels about them before I had the opportunity to visit them in person. As you know, I like to travel around Asia, I am fascinated by its culture and nature and I am very curious about people. I am not able to go everywhere, and books will take me to even the most undiscovered regions of the world. I come to you today with a list of books about India that I have read and that I recommend. CHITRA BANERJEE DIVAKARUNI "AT THE FEET OF THE GODDESS" An interesting family saga showing the fate of Indian women. The story of Grandma Sabitri, a baker's daughter living in an Indian village, her daughter Bela, who will leave in search of a better education and a better life in the United States, and her granddaughter, who has never seen her grandmother, but who writes her a letter from distant India when she learns that the girl wants to give up her education and quit her studies. Beautifully described fates of women. MACIEJ WESOŁOWSKI "VERTICAL SPLIT" A colourful and interesting report. The author takes us through India from Varansi where corpses are burned on gathas by the Ganges, to a visit to Rishikesh where in 1968 the Beatles sought eastern spirituality. A lot of interesting information for people who want to visit India and find interesting places there, not only those described by tourist guides. RANA DASGUPTA "DELHI. THE CAPITAL OF GOLD AND DREAM" The author, born in Great Britain, half Indian, half British, settled in Delhi to better understand the city and its people. A colourful reportage about contemporary India, explaining its culture and giving the reasons for many phenomena resulting from a difficult history, which in my opinion is very similar to the history of Poland. Did you know that Independence Day in India is celebrated on August 15? JOANNA IRZABEK "INDIA SPÓŁKA Z OL" A very compensated story that briefly touches on the most controversial topics related to India. You will find information here about how living in the slums you can start a business and become almost a millionaire but still not be accepted by society, how arranged marriages look like, how and why women are treated this way and not differently, and you will read about other most current problems of modern India. VIKAS SWARUP "SIX SUSPECTS" A very interesting crime novel by the author of the novel on which "Slumdog Millionaire" was based. A very complicated and interesting story about the six people in the title, who are suspects in the case of a murder that took place at a party. All the suspects had weapons with them. The road through India leads us to solving the mystery. GREGORY DAVID ROBERTS “SHANTARAM” A terribly thick book that you will either love or hate. This is the true story of an Australian heroin addict. His family life fell apart, he became a bank robber. Sentenced to 20 years in prison by a court, after a few years he escapes spectacularly and becomes one of the most wanted men in Australia. After reaching India, he hides in the slums, where he does a kind of penance for his previous life and tries to be a good person - he heals the poor, but in the process he gets involved with the Bombay mafia. WILLIAM DALRYMPLE "NINE LIVES. IN THE TRAIL OF SACREDNESS IN MODERN INDIA" One of the most interesting collections of reports describing the lives of nine different people through religious experiences. Here we have the opportunity to meet Jains (I really recommend it!), we learn the story of a follower of Jellamma obliged to provide sexual services, and a Buddhist monk who became a guerrilla fighting Chinese soldiers during the annexation of Tibet. WOJCIECH JAGIELSKI "EAST FROM WEST" A moving and interesting story of a Polish woman who left Warsaw taking one backpack with her. She rejected her previous life – studies, apartment, career and chose India to live in, where she seeks spiritual balance. The author also describes the story of a hippie “Saint” – who values free love, drugs and religious communes. They travel along the path of India, which fascinates many who choose it in order to find a different, better spiritual life. And what they find, you will learn from this book. ANNA JANOWSKA "MONSOOON COMES TWICE. A JOURNEY ON THE PEPPER TRAIL THROUGH KERALA, OMAN AND ZANZIBAR" Reportage not only about India, but I chose this book because the author beautifully describes Kerala - a state that I like very much and often visit because it is the capital of Ayurveda. You will read here how the cultivation of not only pepper but also other important spices and herbs has changed over the years. You will get to know the Kerala spa-sanatorium, completely different from what you can find in Thailand, for example. PIOTR KŁODKOWSKI "THE EMPIRE OF GOD HANUMAN. INDIA IN THREE VIEWS" This is a book written by a former Polish ambassador to India. We get to know India from the political perspective – we have the opportunity to meet statesmen, incredibly wealthy businessmen, influential journalists and Bollywood stars. We get to know the interesting history of India and its connection with the history of Poland – it is really interesting how much we have in common. The author also shows the fate of ordinary people: salespeople, taxi drivers, servants. Summary: My goal is not to summarize these items, but only to indicate what you can expect and encourage you to reach for these items. The order is very random, they are different and everyone will definitely find something for themselves
