It was raining in Hikkaduwa, the waves were non-excistent and I just had a bad day. Petter decided we should go on an adventure to cheer things up. We jumped on a bus and 40 minutes later we were in Thalpe. Now also know as paradise..
Our friends tipped us about Wijaya Beach Restaurant & Hotel. And oh boy, what a little dream! They even had Savanna Dry, the south african cider we drank all the time in Jbay but haven’t seen since..
If you’re around the island the 19 January you should come check out Thalpe and enjoy our friends at the Old Railway’s Fashion show! There’s gonna be a pop up store to, so worthy clothes! I love my dresses and everything is hand made with Sri Lankan fabrics!
Cristal clear.. There’s a big reef outside, protecting from waves coming in and making a natural pool.
Mhm.. Ginger & lemon cheesecake vs. chocolate brownie was a though choice. 1-1 I think, maybe need to try them both again to decide..
From rain to sun, from grumpy to happy in 40 minutes..
Looks gorgeous! You two have a knack for finding beautiful places and fun waves.
Hey Mat! Thanks, haha, that’s what we love to do!
