Arrived in Iran and been here for a week now. Its been very hectic and I don't know where the days go! I am staying in Pardis just outside Tehran. This is a new town in the mountain area and its very quiet and peacful. Its very relaxing to  return there after a busy day in Tehran town.

Bought some fresh henna, lotus (sedr) and ordered my cassia (senna). I now need to do a trip to  the main bazaar to find other new thing to add to the shop.

This place is terrific for all those lovely organic hair treatments and natural products and great for organic  and health giving teas and medicines. I just get so excited when I am in the bazaars I want to buy it all!

If anyone has anything they would like me to stock please  send me an email and I will do my best to source.

I bought myself some Lotus shampoo and some nettle shampoo today and can't wait to try it. I tried out Lotus shampoo years ago and loved  it so am keen to see if it still works for me.

watch out  for my next post, the internet is somewhat irratic here so who knows when I can post again.

Going for Chai (tea) and dates now
