It’s nearly upon us!
This year, we’ve visited Slovakia, Austria and Italy – as well as trips to Edinburgh and Wales here in the UK. And on top of that, we’ve been out and about in our new home territory – the beautiful Cotswolds.
But the big trip for 2017 is to Sri Lanka.
Back in the spring we investigated a few places that were outside Europe and high on our wishlist for our big trip of the autumn. A strong contender was an Argentina/Brazil combo. Neither of us has been to South America and it has a strong appeal. But in the end, we opted for Sri Lanka. The main reason was the diversity of experience there – all contained in a relatively small country.
Just look what we have planned:
- Colonial Colombo and Galle
- Train rides through the mountains
- Visiting the tea plantations
- Beach living on the Indian Ocean
- A safari
- Ancient Buddhist temples
- Mountain treks
Not bad in 15 days!
With the house move we’ve had this summer, time has flown by. We’re now only three weeks away from starting this amazing adventure.
