About Us:
I have traveled to 25 countries (do a month of traveling at least once a year). Done more than my fair share of surfing couches. Studied/lived in the US for 5 years. Back in SL to satisfy the entrepreneurial itch in an economy that's ripe for disruption. Hosted tons of travelers trekking through the island.
Live with mom and bro. We love hosting/helping travelers as we love to give back the compassion shown by hosts to us when we were traveling.
In my experience there is a HUGE difference between having a local help you experience a locality/culture vs following a guidebook/travel-site. We are glad to help any traveler looking for a truly immersive Lankan experience.
Areas of expertise;
Mom - eateries, shopping, health food, giving everyone a lift, baking, deals, life-hacks, sage advice, line dance (and trying to line dance to any music in the house ranging from hip hop to deep house)
