This kid is not even old enough to drink a beer or drive a car. Who does he think he is behaving like this towards adults and other professional sportsmen?
I was in Sri Lanka for 5 days, and I’m absolutely mind-blown 🤯 at:
👩🏻 How safe it feels.
MUCH safer than my own country and big European cities. You can wear anything and nobody stares.
🏨 The hospitality.
I thought Thailand and India have warmest hospitality and then I came here.
Anyone from your cab driver to hotel staff to restaurant servers - people are genuinely warm.
It’s like they *want* you here. They want you to experience the best in their country.
🍤 Food.
Food is affordable, but also the ingredients are so fresh!
Cafes try to locally source as many ingredients as possible. I didn’t come accorss unnecessary fried or unhealthy dishes.
They take pride in their tropical yield and use them all. Like I had prawn in passionfruit gravy last night!

I hope to come again later this year because 5 days don’t feel like enough :)
