If visiting Sri Lanka after please do some research, Specifically into the fuel, electricity & medical supplies situation of the region you wish to visit. The experience a foreign traveler is to have of Sri Lanka is vastly different from that of which the average Sri Lankan is facing in the current situation.
Our hearts go out to all the people of our beautiful island who are suffering atm.
WE WILL RISE ABOVE THIS TOO.
