Ella

Dawn23rd May 201924th May 2019

The touristy town of Ella sits in the rolling green tea-plantation hills of central Sri Lanka, south of Kandy and was our home for a few days in mid-April. Our accommodation was up a very steep road (much of the…

Pasikuda

Nick20th May 201920th May 2019

Northwest of Batticaloa, on the eastern side of Sri Lanka, lies the small coastal town of Pasikuda. We had selected this as a destination rather than either Trincomalee, further to the north, or Batticaloa itself, as we fancied a quiet…

Bangkok

Dawn4th May 20199th June 2019

Habarana

Dawn1st May 201910th May 2019

A short tuk tuk ride from Sigiriya, our stay in Habarana was a short stop to access Minneriya National Park, home to herds of wild elephants (though we could have done this from Sigiriya). We did an afternoon jeep safari…

Sigiriya

Nick1st May 20198th May 2019

Our homestay in Sigiriya, Binara Villa, was in a lovely quiet rural location a few hundred metres away from the main road. Quiet apart from the Geckos, Cicadas and dogs – the night-time barking of the latter causing some sleep…
