Day22
Hikkaduwa puis Negombo
September 18, 2019 in Sri Lanka ⋅ ⛅ 29 °C
Après Misirissa, direction Hikkaduwa où nous pensions surfer : c'était sans compter la météo ! Quelques accalmies nous permettent des ballades en bord de mer mais les averses ne sont jamais bien loin.
Nous décidons donc de rejoindre Negombo et avançons notre vol à ce soir (au lieu du 23).
Eh oui, notre périple au Sri Lanka touche à sa fin.
Dès demain, une nouvelle aventure commence dans un autre pays...!Read more

Day9
Geile Bahnfahrt in den Süden
January 24, 2017 in Sri Lanka ⋅ 🌙 11 °C
Heute ging es von Colombo südwärts Richtung Beachlife! Die Bahnfahrt war der Hammer, wie im Film... Man fährt direkt an der Küste entlang, bekommt den Dampf der Lok ab, weil man halb aus der offenen Tür hängt, abgefahren!! Über 100 km für knapp 1€... begleitet wurde ich von einem Einheimischen, der über 7 Jahre in Deutschland gewohnt hat:)

Angekommen bin ich sofort zum Strand, schnorcheln an Hausriff:) blaue, leuchtende Fische runden den traumhaften Strand mit Kokosnusspalmen ab🏝

Jetzt regnet es und ich sitze mit wahnsinnig interessanten Leuten von überall auf der Welt und warte auf das Dinner der Hostelmama!

Edit: der Hammer, die einheimische Mama hat lokale Köstlichkeiten aufgetischt!!!

Morgen geht's zum Hauptstopp: Weligama! Looking forward smiling!!Read more

I have been here before... But today it's special. I am on the road with Sasha and Konner. Yesterday I decided to travel with them instead of going to midigama with Rosi. The last days rosi was a bit in personal so the plan was easy. We booked in chamis guesthouse a place, Brandon recommended, the guy from Australia I met here last time. Chamis is a beautiful place. I booked a double room for myself and got an upgrade to the tree house... Three beds for me. AWESOME!

We had some food, went to the beach and went to bed early. Next morning during the breakfast we met two Germans from Düsseldorf and Dortmund. After a nice day at the beach, where we met up with Jacob and max, we went out for an expensive but delicious rice and curry, and some tasty fish...
Back in the hostel we decided to celebrate: whatever! Ourself, life, amazing company...

Almost half past two and many boozes later it was bedtime...
For some of us a tough next day...

It's raining man, hallelujah! Maybe the best soundtrack for the day. Half of the day I played the guitar and talked to the guys. In the late afternoon we grabbed a tuktuk and drove to the sea turtle hatchery, an orphanage for turtles. They rescue them, raise them up and release them back to deep sea. A really good project that's worth to support.
Next stop is the tsunami museum in hikkaduwa. After the visit of the museum the mood was depressed. I saw the pictures of the tsunami in 2004 on the screen but all of the were filtered. Here on sri lanka we saw pictures of wasted lands, hundreds of dead, crying children and the houses and streets we walked on were vanished. Its very intense. There were trains, pushed hundreds of meter away from the railway by the waves. What a power of mother nature.

This reminds me on our small, really safe bubble in Germany. There are no tsunami, no earthquakes, no hurricanes, no wars we have to live with. Just our own stupidity to complain about less income, Refugees and life in general.

Still a few days left, so what shall I do? Stay in hikkaduwa till Friday or leave with the rest Thursday morning?Read more

Hikkaduwa
October 1, 2017 in Sri Lanka ⋅ ⛅ 28 °C
My last visit of the beach for a couple of months... So just enjoyed good food and some lonely days at the beach. Just the sun and me and some coconuts...

Random, I met Brandon an Australien, whom I met first time in Arugam Bay. The world is small and tracks will cross again and again...
Both looked for a good massage place, so we tried to find one together. Most massages are way expensive in sri lanka and usually let space for negotiations but with two massages, it's different. Let's do some math: one massage costs 4000 Rupees for 60min.
Two massages 8000 Rupees. Eventually we paid 5000 Rupees for two massages for each 90 minutes. That's a deal.
Soooo, tomorrow I'll head towards Colombo for my China visaRead more

Das erste Wochenende verbringe ich in Hikkaduwa, doch der Strand ist in einem so schlechten Zustand und das Wasser total verschmutzt das man hier nicht Baden kann.
also dieses Wochenende nur am Pool entspannen.
Abends ins Chaaja Hotel zum Abendessen, da dort das Büffet nur 3€ teurer aber dafür um einiges besser ist.

Sri Lanka Reisetipp #1 -> Essen im 5* Hotel, billiger wie wenn man in ein Restaurant geht und deutlich besser und mehr Auswahl + Vor und NachspeiseRead more
