Kandy, Colombo, Galle, Trincomalee, Jaffna, Sigirya, Anuradhapura, Polonnaruwa… So many mythical cities and sites conjure up splendour and exoticism that filters down the ages.
Sri Lanka is stuffed full of wonders fo the visitor: remarkable biodiversity, a range of architectural styles, exceptional archaeological sites, ecological farms, and very beautiful beaches. You can hike its mountains, surf its waves, enjoy its spicy food and finally contemplate its natural wonders.

Everyone can find their own way in Sri Lanka, whether it be spiritual or pedestrian, and can stay in a boutique hotel, a farm, a tent in the forest, a tea estate or an eco-lodge.
In this presentation we will tell you about our experience in this country and the many possibilities of discovering it.
