To all my Indian friends: Thank You for teaching me so much about India. Namaste!
The name of the blog reflects to a Polish word „delikatesy” – a self-service shop, with various range of products. Delhi - the capital of India, where we currently live, is exactly like delikatesy - everyone can pick something for himself!

It has been over 2 months since I am back to Poland, and I am
still puzzled... I miss India although I faced many problems there. For sure it was the greatest adventure of my life!
Currently in Polish media there is a loud media hype about recent rapes and public movements in Delhi. There is a general opinion that it is a very dangerous
country and it is better not to go there alone, especially when you are a young
blond girl.
I have read somewhere that "Polish people know India from touristic brochures and bollywood
movies”. I would also add that nowadays facebook has also a crucial impact on us and how we see the world. Many people publish overwhelming pictures
of poverty, crowd, cows on the street and other typical Indian images. This is
why we perceive Delhi as „Paradise of Waste and Dust". The most irrelevant advice I got before my
flight to India was to make supplies of tampoons for the duration of my work. I was very surprised when, at the first day in Gurgaon I bought a some cosmetics of ZIAJA.
From my personal point
of view - a young world conscious person - India
is much more than only dust, diseases, rapes, crowd, bollywood, beautiful monuments, and exotic spicy cuisine. It is more about people,
great parties, advanced technologies, modern architecture and emerging market.
I have promised to my Indian colleagues to take a trial to
fill the gaps about India in Poland.
It will be a great challenge for me, but I will try my best to to focus on advantages and strengths that Indians are proud of!
This country has an enormous potential. It is one of the fastest growing economics in the world, and this is what I would like to prove
here.
