It's been almost three months since I arrived in India. I haven't written a blog this time sofar, because it doesn't feel like a holiday being here - it's more like actually living here. I know, I'm not working here, but the practice ìs hard work and I have been studying Sanskrit, the yoga sutra's and I even did an aryuvedic massage course, so I am growing and I'm developping myself.

Sunday we went to town to check the bus we'd take to Tissimaharama. On Monday morning we really wanted to surf, but there was no way that was going to happen - the season was over - the waves were not good at all... Sadly we said goodbye to our amazing surfspot....

We found out later that Kandy is not amazing, except for the lake (you can walk around the lake), so for now...

Sri Lanka blog 1 The flight to Sri Lanka was fine: only 1 ½ hours. As I passed the pasport controll, Lilian was waiting for me and it was great to see her again. First I took some money out of the ATM and then we checked for a taxi. Lilian had already made friends with the men behind the counter and luckily there was another man that just arrived and needed a ride towards the south. So we shared a taxi (he 6000 rupees and we 7000 rupees :) ) and arrived at ...
