Catching up as September is a busy travel month.
It started off with a trip to Sri Lanka’s Hill Country driving through gorgeous tea estates. Before I came to Sri Lanka I had a feeling this might be my favorite part of the country and I can now confirm it is. The area is beautiful. Mountains full of tea or vegetables, fog rolling in during the evening, crisp cool air with the sun shining down on you, random waterfalls along the road. It is awesome.
You can see why this region is called “Little England,” especially when you visit the town of Nuwara Eliya. Some hotels look like British estates and there is a golf course smack in the middle of the city. But Nuwara Eliya is not all that impressive as a city. It’s better just as a place to stay on your journeys through the gorgeous tea country.
