Choc thermique
7. marts, Sri Lanka ⋅ ☁️ 28 °C
Un pied sorti de l'avion et c'est déjà le choc thermique ! Il fait une chaleur qui nous rappelle quand on a fait la Colombie. Il doit faire environ 35 degrés.

On sent une grande différence avec le Népal. Ils veulent tous notre argent 😂 (ils augmentent les prix de tous les transports).
On espère que ce ne sera pas la même mentalité quand on aura quitté Colombo.

Bien arrivés à notre hébergement après 1h30 de bus 🥵
On mange et au lit sous le ventilo 😘

Et vous ? Racontez nous l'Ariège ... 🤍
Gros bisousLæs mere

Sri Kailasanathar Swamy Devas Tempel
13. februar 2022, Sri Lanka ⋅ 🌧 27 °C
Über 200 Jahrhundert ist dieser Tempel entstanden auf Initiative indischer Händler, die sich in Sri Lanka niedergelassen hatten und es als Unrecht empfanden Ihren Gottheiten nicht huldigen zu können. Daher ließen sie die besten indischen Baumeister und Bildhauer nach Sri Lanka kommen und bauten einen im Aussehen und Aufbau typischen Hindu Tempel, der Ganesha und Shiva gewidmet ist. Der Tempel ist außen wie innen reich verziert mit Malereien in leuchtenden kräftigen Farben. Seine Holzschnitzereien, Skulpturen und Steinmetzarbeiten sind fein und detailreich ausgeführt. Die Deckengemälde sind märchenhaft und verzaubern uns. Er wird nicht nur durch Touristen auch durch In Colombo lebende Hindus stark frequentiert.

Der Tempel wird derzeit restauriert, denn er ist durch den Tsunami am Weihnachtstag 2004, der 35.000 Todesopfer in Sri Lanka forderte, stark zerstört worden. Mehr als 17 Jahre später sind die Bauarbeiten noch nicht zum Abschluss gekommen, auch wenn Vieles wieder in alter Pracht erstrahlt.Læs mere

To round off our travels with my parents in Sri Lanka, we spent a few days in the capital city Colombo. Our major activity here was buying Sri Lanka inspired/themed Christmas presents. We enjoyed a nice farewell meal with my parents at a pizza joint. Whit and I loved our time with my parents in Sri Lanka and we were sad to go our separate ways. While they head back to New Zealand for a summer Christmas, we fly to Switzerland to spend the holidays with our friends and family living abroad.Læs mere

First solo trip to Sri Lanka
30. november 2019, Sri Lanka ⋅ 🌧 27 °C
First solo trip. Exciting. Scary. I packed all my courage and my excitement to go surfing and I left Turkey behind to discover this tropical island: Sri Lanka.

Colombo was my first stop. I spent my days roaming around the city and the nights at Rasika's place, one friend from Jona from 3 years ago when he visited the country. We went out for dinner with a good friend from him, Dhanangeva, we had such a special connection. I could even call him "spiritual friend".

The first insights of travelling alone didn't happen as expected. I felt observed all the time while walking down the street as a young white woman. Men would approach me and ask me too many personal questions that started blocking my friendliness to turn it into mistrust. Some people followed me, others wanted to pay things for me and that felt very uncomfortable.

I continued my trip to Weligama to surf, main purpose of this trip. I spent a bit more than two weeks surrounded by very good people surfing, sharing wonderful evenings and delicious roti. The atmosphere with local people was amazing and I mostly spent my free time with Yehoram and Lior, two Israelis and with the Sarahs from Australia, that made my stay unforgettable ♡

After laying at the beach like a lizard and surfing at the Sri Lankan coast for a while, it was time to discover the wilderness of the hilly part. Haputale, Ella and Mihintale followed with Leana, an Argentinian girl with whom I spent the last days in the country. It felt good to speak some Spanish and to share my adventures with a woman.

Travelling on my own has been indeed an adventure but foremost a trip of self discovery. It's been a journey where I did things that scared me but I am glad I did them anyway. I had moments when I felt vulnerable and angry, and other moments left my heart full and I felt very grateful for being able to feel, to live, to be free. To be able to separate ways from my partner for a while and meet again with plenty of stories to tell each other.

I wonder if travelling alone will feel the same next time. Maybe I just have to give it another try... :)Læs mere

28C at 9am and due to rise to 34C. As we left the ship, a group of musicians and dancers were performing for us. They looked very colourful in their costumes. We started with a tour of parts of the city which was run down but very lively. Most of the shops were closed as it was a Sunday but all the local markets were open. We stopped for photographs at some of the more important buildings and then stopped for a tour of the city museum, which contained ancient statues of Buddha, discovered in various parts of the country and items belonging to the last King of Ceylon. We then drove to Independence Square for more photographs and then to a Buddha temple. We stopped for refreshments before continuing along the seafront and promenade, passing some very modern and old hotels and some interesting colonial buildings.Læs mere

Once more off to watch the elephants but this time in a more civilized way. We took the express train to Pinnawala to an elephant rescue park that takes elephants that have been orphaned or acclimatized to human contact and can't take care of themselves in the wild. There are now about 60 elephants in the area. A few still need to be chained at times but most roam pretty freely around the area as you can see from the herd coming down the street by the restaurant we were eating at to use the river for their daily bath.
We watched the entire herd romp around the river and get their daily socializing done. Some played, some rested and others just would drape their trunk around each other and get close like they were old buddies telling secrets in each others ear.
We, of course, did the same in a restaurant just above the water with about 100 of the folks on the world cruise that we have gotten to know pretty well after being on the boat with some of them for almost 3 months.
The train was built in 1980 but recreated one of the old ones used during the WWII when the Commander of the Asian Command was headquartered just north of where we were. Much nicer then traveling by bus. Sri Lanka has come a long way from the days of the Civil War and terrorist bombings every week or so. It was good to see a country come out of something as bad as they went through with the spirit these people have. We wish them well. It is definitely worth a visit again in a few years to see what has happened.Læs mere

Nachdem wir leider nicht von unserem Hotel am Flughafen abgeholt wurden, sind wir um 5h morgens die Stadt nach einem Hostel abgelaufen - irgendwann gegen 7h morgens hatten wir etwas Glück 😉
Colombo hat man in einem Tag abgelaufen, in den Straßen wird alles mögliche verkauft, was wir als Schrott bezeichnen würden haha.
Nachts waren wir auf der Suche nach einer Bar - angeblich nur eine halbe Stunde von unserem Hostel entfernt... Bilanz nach 2 Stunden Fussmarsch: Kein Bier, keine Bar, keine Frauen auf der Straße, aber Party bei Pizza Hut 😂Læs mere

Ponnampalavaneswarar hindu temple, grandmother of shiva.
A cerimónia começa o ambiente se torna ainda mais místico e de certa forma assustadora, tive uma sensação de desconforto como se tivesse recuado quase 4mil anos atrás e estava numa cerimónia da civilização Maya.Læs mere
