Day 7 - Shopping for fabrics in Galle

Team day! Today Omani and her friend Dulsha came by. Together with them we have done many painting assignments, vases for cutlery, flower pots, walls, toilet signs. It was super fun, they also enjoyed a nice cappuccino with our homemade bananabread. Robin got to work with Sajith and Ashen, Ciao Bella's new menu is going to be super tasty. The boys are going groceries shopping and tomorrow we are going to learn all the dishes to the cook and taste with the team in order to serve the very best to the guests.

Together with Lea, the German lady who has been traveling for 24 months, we laughed a lot today. Some things we can't tell, but definitely things to remember. Tomorrow we go for breakfast together at a nice place she wants to show us.

After this we go with Edward to Galle. Now really almost for the last time hahaha, but Galle simply has the best shops! We go to the fabric store and we buy really beautiful fabric to make clothes. Tonight we take the fabric to the tailor.

On the wat back home we stop at Shack just outside Galle, this beach tent that has been there for 7 years, owner is a Dutchman! We also meet a man who has been living in Sri Lanka for 17 years, nice to hear what he has already set up here the past years. The food is super tasty, we order tuna sashimi for only €5 wow, pasta gorgonzola and of course a quatro formaggi without tomato sauce. For dessert brownie and pudding, nice and tasty!

Now we go back to Habaraduwa, visiting Vishmi, Minidu, Sanduni and their mother. They teach us some words in Singala (එෙනාප), which is a difficult but beautiful language. Mama has already finished some pillowcases from the fabric we bought, really very nice. After this we go to the tailor with the other fabric bought today. Robin has problems with her ankle so dear Minidu takes Robje on a bike, what a gentlemen. We show the fabric to the man, he is completely happy. He really likes it and we are really curious how the result will be. Hes making 15 tops and 3 dresses for us, all one size so that everyone can buy and wear them. Monday we pick up the clothes!

Now go to sleep.
