We need more fun!

Hi there, fellow runner and/or designer! Here is another travel post, you might have noticed already that our blog came out to be true travel blog recently. Never mention that recently can not be applied to this composition of words for sure, due to me being lazy, absent and stupid ) Let's fix this crap for now and on.

So, let's talk about Sri Lanka and find out our common level of knowledge in this area of geography. All you might know already is that Sri Lanka is an island. You also may be educated enough to find it on the map -- it's somewhere in the south. You might be confident enough to consider that Sri Lanka is situated in one of southern seas or oceans and you'll be correct -- it's in the Indian ocean. Why, if it’s located in the Indian Ocean, shouldn’t it be close to India? For sure it is, brilliant!

What is Sri Lanka famous for, not speaking about it’s geography? Of course it is well known all over the world for it's marvelous tea industry. And they dig gems, they are great miners be sure. When we are not talking of bitcoins ) In Sri Lanka they produce natural rubber, kauchuck. And they have interesting situation with religion, Sri Lanka is real cradle of multiculturalism. They have plenty of cultures living in peace now. Muslim, Buddhists and Christians with Hinduists.

So. Let’s talk about disadvantages of Sri Lanka for typical stupid tourist. First of all is weather in summer. Due to it’s geographical position, lankians have their rainy winter when we, hardcore northern men have our summer. So the weather is floating around 29 Celsius and heavy showers with lightning bolts from time to time. Without further delays I should say: I am going to visit this island soon. Wish me luck and you’ll get lots of pics in a couple of weeks.
