Good Day,
Anyone have information on what travel is like in Sri Lanka right now?
It seems pretty horrific. Would appreciate any information.
Safety is a concern, but curious if tourism is still a practical means of supporting those struggling right now.
Thank you!

I’ve been following this as well. Ironically or not so much so, the roots of the current instability are in part linked to the dearth of tourism due to the Covid crisis in recent years. Here’s a quick read but in short for me, theee are more attractive travel options.

Thanks Geezer! Sadly agree and seems we'll have to wait for some stability before we can return and help in what small way we can toward a recovery.
