Art and Beauty in Coastal Sri Lanka
Its always a pleasure when dear friends travel and bring their memories live and share with you, isnt it?How happy are you to see the images and enjoy them.This was the perfect time for my dear friend Ambika to travel to SriLanka coz i am head over heels in love with Srilanka :)- with Geoffrey Bawa :)- An amazing tour she did with whatever little time she got and has captured the essence of SriLanka in her gorgeous images..
Ambika creates art wonderfully,she is a blogger and blogs at
"My Sunny yellow Window".She also shares DIY'S,Decor ideas and travel stories..
Shall let
Ambika speak now...
“Travelling – it leaves you speechless, then turns you into a storyteller” and I couldn’t agree more with Ibn Batuta.
While noting the striking resemblance of Sri Lanka to India, there were some stark differences too - the cleanliness and aesthetics of the general public in Sri Lanka are many notches above.
Four days in the island nation whizzed past and I have just photographs as memoirs. A few among them are special to me, and I wish to share them with the readers of Celebrations Decor. Without further ado, I will let my pictures do justice..
