Titi Bag – My favorite bag

I have been thinking for two years about how to decrease most of the women’s bags in my wardrobe.

Like all women, of course, I also had a good few bags. Because one is good for larger papers, and the other is more comfortable or pretty.

So over the years, I got some bags.
I bought them all in the hope that it would be more comfortable or more thing fit in or fit me better.

Then I found a little bag that was super cool. Comfortable, hand-held, fit with everything I wore, but I always wished it was a little bigger.

I wore it until it was torn and worn.

Then came the idea. What if it was bigger? What if I ask somebody to make one. I looked around on the internet.

I decided to reuse the old bags and sew something else.
I will donate the bags in good condition.

I was sure of one thing. It has to made from leather. Because it can serve me until the rest of my life. And honestly, I dislike the many fashion bags. Two-three years and these torn and worn.

I know I know. Cruelty-free, vegan, etc.
Still, I felt it best not to buy another bag and just to put the burden on the environment.

I searched for a lot.

? And I came across the Titi Leather Crafting website. ?

Bartyik Kata made my bag.
A very kind and immensely patient woman.?

She helped me with how to make my favorite bag bigger and “Sophie-proof”.❤
All of the breaks in my old little bag have been well researched to make it last.

I’ve been using it for a year now. It’s good and beautiful still.
I love it very much!

Very useful, and I never want to change it.


The perpetual female problem has disappeared.?
I no longer have an infinite universe inside my bag that I have no idea what’s in it.??

ECOSIA – Environment friendly search engine

Plant real trees with just a few clicks!

Not long ago I found Ecosia, which is a search engine.
They have an incredibly valuable mission.
That is, at least 80 percent of the profit is spent on planting trees, where the biggest problem is: in Africa, in Burkina Faso.

We can’t go every day to pick up garbage or volunteer or live without Zero waste.
We can try, but honestly  it is not easy if the workplace or other reasons make it difficult.
But it is great to have tools in everyday life, and
I can help a little to the Earth on my average days.

That’s why ECOSIA has been created.

We can do something for the greener future of the Earth with using internet.
We help them with every search to make our planet greener.
What I am really happy about is that they have more than 7 million users and more and they planted 57 million trees. (Based on 2019 data)

Ecosia is easy to use, just like Google.
Using it in office work, I can also contribute a little to the brighter future.
Those who sit in front of their machines (for work or anything)
it is an opportunity to take part in environmental protection without changing their usual habits.

How does it work?
Just like Google, or other search engines, is generating revenue from edits and advertisements.
Our search on the internet, through advertisements and ranking of search results, is definitely making money for the search engine.
Then I looked closely, and with Ecosia we can be sure that 80 percent of the money earned from searches will turn out to be good.
As “Earth Warriors”, we take a little money from Microsoft and Google to give back to Earth through Ecosia, who now needs our support immensely.
Ecosia has full financial publicity, and tree planting donations can be downloaded for anyone from Ecosia Dropbox account.
Ecosia can be added quickly and easily to the search engine right from the start page.
I’ve already done this with a few clicks.
Since its launch in 2009, a total of 57,764,698 (May 15, 2019) trees were planted from the donations of Ecosia, which warmed my heart.
Until I think again, Earth’s trees are rapidly disappearing as a result of human intervention.
48 large soccer-field-sizes forest are cut per every minute,
this means more than 150,000 square kilometers per year
and I can’t tell you how many trees.
This means a little smaller area each year than Hungary (my home country).

I can only encourage you!
Use Ecosia!
Do it for the environment, try to be sustainable, even if you never reach the full Zero waste.
Try Recycling Everyday, so that we don’t have to lie to our grandchildren, “We tried everything.”

Menstrual cup – What is this …..?

A couple of years ago I met the menstrual cup.
Then I thought, “What? They’re crazy! What’s that stupid things?”
Then as I met the “Zero Waste” more and more, I also met the Reusable pads and others.
I was wondering what it was, if it was something of an epoch-making solution? ?
As I began to pay more attention to myself and my health and the environment, I found a YouTube channel.

This is not advertising, it’s just a recommendation!
This is Hormonmentes (hormone-free) from Janka.

This is a Hungarian YouTube channel, but if you know English channel in the same topic, please let me know in the comment section.❤
Janka Talking about “taboos” that shouldn’t be taboo, so I just loved it!

Update!!!???
You send me an English YouTube channel about this topic, so the video is here:

I don’t want to describe the way it works, nor to say that it’s good and everyone needs it.
Watch the video if you are interested.
I would just like to tell you what experiences I have about this.
So after a lot of thinking and watching, I decided to try it out.

I counted one: In a month with a package insert.
Approximately: One month = a pack of menstrual pads.
One pack is about 2-3 EUR
This is 24-36 EUR in a year (or more)
So one menstrual cup = 1 year menstrual pads
But you can use it for years.
I counted, thought and bought it…

I’ve been looking at it for a while, because It was still a little bizarre for me.
Now I would like to tell you about the first two days of experience.
I’m a little shy, but I think that women have to talk about it (with other women).?

The disinfection step went easily.
Because disinfection is most important.
Before every use!

The first day was very skeptical and cautious
so I used a menstrual pad too.
But the surprising experience was that it worked perfectly for 12 hours.
The placement was not easy at first.
First I was thinking, How this thing works? What and how should I?
But then I managed to do it.

Ladies who regularly use tampons: this is a big advantage!

The second day has gone easier insertion,
better to say, less …. uncomfortable.

And the “take-off” was surprisingly easy.
I’m not going to explain why, but first try to take off in the shower!
I’m over the second day.
No leaks, airtight, not uncomfortable.?

I finished the day off with a great feeling.
No taboo from today!
No longer have to miss the wellness, no missed swimming pool!
I can go on any tour on the “period” days too!?

But the most important thing!
All women have experienced in their life (or will be),
that it is not a matter the routine.
The rush of life, the “just one more question” on the way to the WC, or for whatever reason, the blood was everywhere…
(And if you have no luck, of course in a white dress, etc.)
I think this is a familiar problem that I don’t have to explain.

Not only am I happy, but I also feel an uplifting plus freedom!
Funny, but after this two days I just don’t understand why I haven’t found it so far, or why I haven’t used it before.
