Well I have always been curious about these treatments.

In the afternoon, sometimes when I get bored I just go and stand in the shallow stream where hundreds of fish feast on the dead skin of my feet. \u00a0Let me say it again, free of cost.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"margin: 1px; border: 1px solid black; float: right;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-india-stateless\/2018\/05\/54134_102040.jpg\" alt=\"Countdown Brikesh's tree house\" width=\"384\" height=\"283\"><\/p>\n<p>Day 11 at the tree house and its been a rather quiet day. Started my day with a bucket bath in the river and I needed it badly. For the last 2 days the river water has been very muddy thanks to the constant drizzling. So I could neither shower in the rain nor use the river water but fortunately I woke up to a clear shallow river and had a refreshing bucket bath.<\/p>\n<p>The highlight for the day has been the bamboo shoots subzi.  Nine year old Swapnil, who lives in the village nearby, brought it for me.<\/p>\n<p>A week ago I had mentioned in my update that I saw these kids carrying some bamboo shoots home and I asked them if they could get me some of the local bamboo preparation.<\/p>\n<p>The kids kept their promise. Swapnil says he cooked it and I have no option but to believe him.<\/p>\n<h5><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"vertical-align: text-top; margin: 1px; border: 1px solid black;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-india-stateless\/2018\/05\/54133_102042.jpg\" alt=\"Swapnil with the bamboo shoot\">Rohit (in-front holding the bamboo shoot) and his brother Swapnil (behind).<\/h5>\n<p>Join the movement to protect our forests in Central India from coal mining.
