"I booked the Yala safari through The Pearl Edition and it was the best decision of the trip. Three leopards in two hours."
"The tea estate tour was something I will never forget. The family who hosted us have grown tea for four generations."
"A blue whale surfaced ten metres from the boat off Mirissa. The whole deck went silent. I still get chills."
"Filmed the train curving over the Nine Arch Bridge in Ella and it blew up overnight. Sri Lanka does that to your camera roll."
"I did a cooking class in a Galle home kitchen and came back making proper dhal. Best souvenir I brought home."
"Filmed sunrise from the top of Sigiriya. The drone footage alone was worth the entire trip."
"Spent a week just wandering Galle Fort at golden hour. The light there does something to you."
