    Gray Hair Care – My Trusted Routine

    Today, I’m sharing my daily routine for caring for gray hair. Maybe you’ll find some inspiration here!   I’ve always chosen gentle shampoos and conditioners (or masks) with good ingredients. I avoid “bad ingredients” like SLS (Sodium Lauryl Sulfate), SLES (Sodium Laureth Sulfate), alcohol, and unnecessary dyes. For me, simplicity and effectiveness are key – and my hair appreciates it! My Golden Rule: Why? Because no shampoo can make your hair shine if you neglect your scalp and hair follicles. Healthy hair starts at the roots! And conditioner? For my wavy (sometimes even slightly curly) hair, it has to hydrate, add bounce, and help it look beautifully styled. How Do I…

    Happy Birthday to me :)

    Aging... What a perfect moment to write a few words about it. Is it really aging, or is it more about gaining life experience? Every life journey begins at birth and ends in the same place for everyone. It’s up to us whether we flow with it or resist it. Accepting time and the cycle of life is that conscious moment when you go with the flow instead of wasting time dwelling on the past and longing for what’s been lost. I haven’t lost anything- everything has its time: youth, foolishness, and growing up. Now it’s a different time and a different appearance – everything just as nature intended. When…

    Rysy has finally been conquered!

    Last year, we failed to reach Poland’s highest peak—Rysy at 2,499 meters above sea level—as warnings about dangerous lingering snow on the Tatra National Park’s website dissuaded us (me and my Son) from taking the risk. However, this year, I cleverly planned our trip to ensure no snow would impede our path. The route was spectacular, taking just 11 hours and 13 minutes from entering to exiting the Tatra National Park at Łysa Polana. The weather was tailor-made; calm and sunny in the morning and cooler clouds arrived later in the day to temper our excitement and save us from getting sunburned. Seriously though, the weather was perfect—cool in the…

    You Are Priceless!Your Worth Does Not Depend on Anything External

    How much are you worth? This question has been echoing in my mind for a long time, so I might write more than usual because this is truly important. Let’s think about your inner value. What is your sense of self-worth? What is it built upon, and have you always had it? The answer is always the same – you were priceless, you are priceless, and you will be priceless! Any scratch on this opinion comes only from the beliefs you acquired during your life, from others’ opinions and judgments. Your worth does not depend on your hair color, brand-name clothes, possessions, education, or the number of likes you get.…

    Bergen Marathons: Why I Haven’t Been Here for a While ;)

    Chasing after training sessions, good food, relaxation, and work didn’t leave me much time for writing. But I do have some personal successes to share! At the end of April 2024, I participated in the fantastic Bergen City Half Marathon, and at the beginning of June, I completed the Bergen Mountain Half Marathon. Just a year ago, I ran my first 5 km, and I never would have thought that I’d be able to complete the Bergen half marathon – known to be quite challenging due to its mountainous terrain. The most important thing I want to highlight is that anything is possible if it’s well planned. Preparing for a…

    My Journey to Healthier Hair #2 Diet

    Diet. Doesn’t this word sound like something we’d want to avoid at all costs? It brings to mind restrictions, sacrifices, and an unpleasant feeling that we have to give something up. But don’t be misled – it’s actually about something much more positive and constructive. Instead of talking about dieting, I prefer to focus on “rational eating.” Sounds better, doesn’t it? Our nutritional needs change with every stage of life. Proper nutrition isn’t about mindlessly stuffing ourselves but about consciously choosing what lands on our plates. Different periods in life require different nutrients. And what happens inside us directly affects how we look outside. That’s why it’s important to focus…

    My Journey to Healthier Hair #1 cosmetics

    The beginning of my journey with a thorough analysis of the cosmetics I use coincided with the period when I started struggling with hair loss. I quickly discovered that not only does dyeing have a negative impact on my hair, drying it out and contributing to hair loss, but daily products such as shampoos also have an adverse effect. I was surprised when I realized that most care products contain strong detergents, far from being neutral to our health. I’m talking not only about shampoos but also about body wash gels, and even those intended for intimate hygiene! Hidden Enemies in the Composition: SLS, SLES, and Others Especially SLS (Sodium…

    My Daily Morning Routine – The Tale of My Two Glasses :)

    Morning, as we all know, is a crucial part of the day, and to ensure the day is joyful, happy, and full of energy, it’s essential to start it off right 🙂 Every day, right after waking up, I drink two magical glasses: What does the glass with bee pollen give me? Primarily, it provides vitamins and minerals (vitamins from the B group, namely B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B9, vitamin C, vitamin A -beta-carotene , vitamin E, vitamin D, and vitamin K, potassium, magnesium, calcium, phosphorus, iron, copper, zinc, selenium, silica, and manganes), as well as energy. It stimulates the body to get moving and refreshes the mind. With…

    Why do I avoid eating bread nowadays?

    It’s a question I often hear, and sometimes it’s not easy to answer. I’ll be honest, I used to love bread 🙂 But not the bread you find on the commercial market today. I want to share my thoughts on this. Bread, as I remember it from over 40 years ago, was something special. It was the taste of real baking tradition, handmade, with a beautiful golden crust, full of aroma and a delicate crunch. Unfortunately, today’s bread is quite different from those days. So why don’t I eat modern bread? There are several reasons. Firstly, the bread produced today is the result of processes that make it less and…

    Safari in Tanzania – practical information

    We didn’t organize the safari ourselves; we purchased a package tour from a local agency that has been organizing safaris for years. The package included pick-up from our hotel in Zanzibar, a flight to Arusha, a driver with a jeep, 2 nights in a lodge (including breakfast and dinner), lunch during the safari, a visit to Tarangire National Park (approximately 6 hours), a visit to Ngorongoro Crater (approximately 7 hours), and a visit to a Maasai village located near our accommodation – the lodge. The organization of the entire safari was very efficient. Directly from the airport, we headed to Tarangire National Park, and by late afternoon, we were checked…
