Arrival at Homestay
When you arrive at your new home and meet your host in the afternoon, you’ll be welcomed with open arms. There’s a really relaxed atmosphere here and you’re sure to feel immediately at ease. You can spend your first evening relaxing in the garden with a good book or taking a look around the home – you’ll find plenty of interesting photos! In the afternoon you’ll head out on a city tour and see the sights. We’d recommend visiting the royal botanical garden and the temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic.
Cooking Lesson
Today you’ll start your morning by heading for a stroll through the local villages before tucking into your breakfast. After you’ve eaten, you’ll weave between the stalls of the local markets where your senses will be awoken by the colourful sights and tantalising smells. On your return, it’s time to get your taste buds going as you join the local cook who’ll teach you how to make a delicious Sri Lankan curry, revealing all her tasty secrets.
Departure from Homestay
After breakfast today, it’s time to say your goodbyes to your hosts as your Sri Lanka homestay comes to an end. You’ll head onwards towards the next destination on your trip.
