 I'm now into week two of a five week Sri Lankan adventure. I've completed a six day silent meditation retreat in the hills of Kandy in the middle of the country. Chilly, wet, wet, wet and constantly damp and dark. Up at 4.30am and in bed at 9pm. Sitting in lotus/half lotus for 7-8hrs a day and fighting off leeches day and night. No electricity, no hot water (solar, no sun though) and very basic accommodation. Living like a monk and with the monks. It’s been a wonderful experience! I wanted to stay longer, but needed to wash (and more importantly DRY) clothes and take a shower and truth be known - talk!

 I arrived in Colombo at 11pm and was collected from the airport by my hotel's driver. No fuss, no hassles. He was a kind and helpful man who patiently waited for me to get a SIM card and change money. 25 minutes later and I was in my little room at the beachside town of Negombo. |
