Sri-Lanka 2...

It’s not easy to find net access in Sri-Lanka… some days its hard to find computers, some days its hard to find power and other days finding a toilet is a struggle...
I have discovered a little more about this country now, there is more to it than the seemingly endless humidity, stray dogs and guns…
There is also good food, amazing forests, friendly people and fireworks!!!

Spending time in a developing country were it’s security, economy and ways of life have been decimated by natural disaster and were much of the country is declared a war zone – has helped stir many thoughts and inner wrestling. Obviously it has helped me realise how much I take for granted pack in little safe and secure Perth, how much I waste and how much time is often wrapped up in things that are perhaps not as important as I make them seem…or rather what important things do I neglect.
The best response? – totally unsure, it seems many who live here also are, but it’s something to wrestle with, something to change from and find better direction.
