Colombo - Post Report Question and Answers
What do you wish you had known about this particular city/country before moving there?
Sri Lanka is a very comfortable country to live in. I wish the hills (and the cooler weather) were easier to reach from Colombo-- it was just far enough away that it was hard to reach in a weekend, so we ended up staying in hot and humid Colombo more than I thought we would. - Jul 2025
I wish I had known how little there is to do here, and how difficult it is to socialize. - Mar 2021
Everything is just a little bit harder in Sri Lanka. Everything takes a little bit longer, and everything is a little bit dirtier... - Sep 2017
We did a lot of research and knew some Sri Lankans who we questioned endlessly! And once we got to Colombo we never said no to any invitations and took park in any and everything we say - this positioned us to love the people and country quickly. - Mar 2017
