My Sri Lanka Travel Journal

A travel journal made for a trip around Sri Lanka, for visitors from abroad and for Sri Lankans exploring their own island. Before you go: your dream trip, a packing list made for the tropics (yes, clothes that cover shoulders and knees for temples), and a list of places to tick off, from Sigiriya and Kandy to the Ella train, Galle Fort and Jaffna. Then thirty days, two pages each: the date and the place, the weather, what you saw, your best meal, the people you met, one word for the day, how you felt, and a box for a sketch, a ticket or a pressed leaf. Also inside: - Say it in Sinhala and Tamil: eleven useful phrases with a simple guide to the sound - Food I tasted: hoppers, kottu, curd and treacle and more, with stars to rate them - People I met, places I loved, hidden corners, my best moments, next time, and what I spent - Notes and dotted sketch pages - Eight pencil drawings of Sri Lanka: the stilt fisherman, a tuk-tuk, the Nine Arch Bridge, tea, hoppers, Galle lighthouse, a mask and the coast train A5, 120 pages, light grey lines that let your handwriting stand out. A lovely gift for anyone about to visit Sri Lanka. Printed in Sri Lanka on demand when you order.
