On My Way to Sri Lanka

I sit here, wide awake, earphones in, Daft Punk blaring, as the boys twist and turn in their economy plus seats beside me struggling to find a comfortable position to rest their heads. Only their dreams can be highlighted as a pleasure on this 10 hour flight through the night. Alice in Wonderland was a calming introduction to the wonderland of imagination at dinner and was complimented nicely by the alcoholic consumption in hopes of steading the heart rate. It is their dreams of what will make this long travel well worth induce them into a comatose state. Dreams similar to the footage of the WQS Sri Lankan Airlines Pro which was held the previous week. Dreams of what or who we have left behind.


Alike the countries I have been fortunate to dip my toes into in the past 2 months I will be confronted with a whole different way of life and I await our arrival with true anticipation. Not looking forward to our next obstacle though, the 10 hour bus ride to the eastern side of Sri Lanka, Arugam Bay . Hopefully I too will be lured into the dreaming state.
