    Deniyaya

    March 24, 2017 in Sri Lanka ⋅ ⛅ 31 °C

    I couldn't be happier that I had the chance to meet these amazing girls: Sirin and Jana from Germany. ☺️ This time we went to the Sinharaja rainforest together, and we stayed one night in the nearest town called Deniyaya.

    While we were exploring Deniyaya, 2 children suddenly appeared, grabbed Jana's and Sirin's hands and took us to their house to show us a cow. 🐮It was so funny as they put 3 chairs in front of the cow so that we could watch it, like in a cinema. 😄It was getting a bit embarrassing when the whole family arrived and we were just sitting there as strangers.. Fortunately, everybody was surprisingly welcoming and kind. They showed us their house, their toys and a speaking parrot. 🐦We even got some local vegetables and some coconut. 🍈

    Sinharaja Rainforest

    March 25, 2017 in Sri Lanka ⋅ ⛅ 11 °C

    Starting the day with a super delicious breakfast gave us the energy to go to a 5-hour-long tour to the Sinharaja Rainforest. 💪🏻

    Luckily, we had a very enthusiastic and expert guide called Pali, who told us loads of interesting facts about the forest, animals and plants. 🕷🐒🍃

    The best part was when we stopped and swam in a beautiful waterfall! It was so refreshing and amazing, as we were listening to the sounds of nature and felt so free. I'm sure that I will be thinking of that moment, when I have to go back to work. ☺️

    That weird thing on the last picture was simply called sandwich by Pali. I was kinda relieved when we found out that we didn't have to eat the leaves, only the stuff between them. 😁 There were some coconut with some honey inside, that we really enjoyed.
