We’ve been together six years. I could write about how the time fly-ing, and how it don’t feel like a long time. But when I think back about the years and all the things we’ve done it feels more like a lifetime, in only six years… We graduated from high school, we travelled and conquered

Misty morning

This morning was so foggy you couldn’t even see the waves in the ocean. So we decided to just take a walk along the railroad and take a glimpse of the simple and beautiful life people live in this village. The railroad works more as a road for walking than a road for trains. There’s only

Luxe lunch at Era Beach is a good way to kill an afternoon. We first saw this place on the internet last year when we googled around on colonial villas in Sri Lanka. And what a beauty. The details of everything is super nice, floors and doors are of untreated wood, the pool is in

Unfortunately the ocean didn’t provide this surf but you can’t really complain as it was pretty damn good any way. Surfed a perfect a-frame break called Kabalana or “The Rock” with

We get so many emails about where to stay from people that are coming to Sri Lanka, it’s hard to answer them all. I’m sorry for that! Here’s a good tip though: If you fancy a place that’s laid-back luxe infront of the surf at Ram’s Right, walking distance to Plantations and Lazy Left then

And so did my brother come to the lank. We surprised him by picking him up on the airport as we were already in Colombo that day. He got super stoked! Here’s a bunch of photos from the first week we spent here together surfing, going on jeep ventures, shooting monkeys, doing arm balances and

Sorry for the draught of blog posts. We’ve been busy in paradise, as usual. We’ve had lots of friends come visiting and staying with us, we’ve been studying and also trying to buy a new jeep.

Yala Safari


No Comments

One morning Cailin packed the whole yoga retreat in a van headed towards the wild east! Just below the Arugam Bay area is Yala national park so it’s really similar nature wise to Arugam bay, only protected completely from development.  Yala nationalpark is huuuge. We saw everything from elephants, to GREEN BIRDS to believe it
