Inclusive Tourism & The Pekoe Trail

Sri Lanka is a paradise for travellers, offering something for everyone. From luxury experiences to authentic journeys through our villages, mountains and tea country.

The 300 km Pekoe Trail is a great example of inclusive tourism. While large tourism companies cater to high-end travellers, the benefits of tourism should also flow down to the grassroots. Such as local guides, drivers, homestay owners, farmers, small businesses and communities along the trail.

Tourism is like a cake. It should not belong to a few; it should be shared with everyone.

The essence of inclusive and responsible tourism is creating same opportunities for the public too.

Yesterday was Sri Lanka Leopard Day. 🐆🇱🇰

The Sri Lankan leopard has sharper eyesight than us, a far better sense of smell, finer senses, and one of the most beautiful coats in the animal kingdom.

But we have something they don’t…

A voice.

And with that voice comes the responsibility to speak for those who cannot. It is our duty to create awareness and protect one of Sri Lanka’s greatest natural treasures.

This photo is from one of my recent lectures on the Leopards of Sri Lanka. Whenever I get the opportunity, I take time to share the importance of conserving our unique biodiversity.

If we don’t speak for them today, who will? 🇱🇰

Knowledge is one of the few investments that always pays dividends.

Despite being in a busy professional schedule, I’ve successfully completed the IUCN Academy course, “Biodiversity Offsetting in a Nature Positive World.”

As a National Tourist Guide Lecturer, I believe our responsibility goes beyond showcasing destinations. We must also understand and protect them. I’m committed to continuous learning so I can better serve my clients, inspire my students and contribute to more responsible and sustainable tourism.

Always learning. Always improving. Always guiding with purpose.

26 years yesterday . ( +10) 😉

Every smile in this photo is a reminder of why I started this journey.

Years of learning.
Countless miles travelled.
Thousands of stories shared.
Hundreds of incredible people I’ve had the privilege to guide.

Life has taught me that not everyone will celebrate your success. That’s okay.

I wasn’t born to compete with anyone.
I was born to become better than the person I was yesterday.

Thank you to everyone who has been part of this journey.

Still standing.
Still smiling.
Still moving forward.

Here’s to the next chapter.

Today is the international museum day!!!
A few days ago in Anuradhapura, during a visit to the Archaeological Museum with one of my students, I came across this beautiful ancient clay incense burner discovered from Kuruwita area.

Centuries ago fragrant smoke from vessels like this may have filled temples, palaces and homes with the scent of sandalwood, flowers, cinnamon and incense brought from distant lands.

But beyond its history this little clay vessel felt strangely human to me.
Burning quietly while spreading fragrance around it.

Perhaps life is like that too.
We carry our own fire silently just to bring warmth, comfort and happiness to the people we love.

One day like this artifact, we too become memories…
Fragments of a life once lived, remembered by someone with affection.

Museums are not only about old objects.
They are also about human lives, emotions and stories preserved through time.

𝐏𝐮𝐧𝐧𝐚’𝐬 𝐒𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲

This morning at Horton Plains, I met a stranded traveler.

Her story is a reminder for every traveler.

While taking my guests for the hike to World’s End, I noticed a young woman standing near the ticket counter looking very worried. Her name was Punna.

She had hired a tuk-tuk from her hostel because it was the cheapest option she could find.

Unfortunately, the driver overcharged her and left her stranded near the entrance.

Alone.
Confused.
In a foreign country.

After many years of guiding travelers around Sri Lanka, I’ve learned something simple.

Cheap doesn’t always mean good.

As one of my Australian mentors always says:

“If you pay peanuts, you get monkeys.”

So I arranged for her to join one of our shuttle vans and made sure she safely reached the entrance so she could continue her journey.

Just a small act of help.

But sometimes, when you’re far from home, a little help can mean everything.

A small reminder to all travelers:

When you travel in a foreign country, try to use licensed guides, authorized services, and trusted transport.

It might cost a little more.
But it saves a lot of trouble.

Because travel should be about places like Horton Plains.
not stories about being stranded.

Remember Punna’s story the next time you travel.

Sometimes the cheapest option becomes the most expensive lesson.

The Teardrop of the Indian Ocean has heard both the sound of waves… and the sound of war.

We are still facing challenges. Healing is still happening.

But this is not a story of hatred,
it is a story of resilience.

Of rising after the fall.
Of choosing peace when anger is easier.

Because even the longest night must give way to dawn.

May the drums of war fall silent.
May peace lead the way.

Proud of this island. 🤍

Happy International Tourist Guide Day!

At the summit of Sigiriya, the icon of Sri Lanka 🇱🇰
Where history meets the horizon and stories rise with the sun.

Grateful to be living my passion, guiding an incredible team from National Geographic Expeditions.

This isn’t just my job, this is my office, my classroom, and my pride.
Here’s to the storytellers, the bridgebuilders, and the guardians of heritage.

Sri Lanka isn’t an alternative.
Sri Lanka is a choice.
Standing with the next generation of Sri Lankan tourist guides. Sharing knowledge, responsibility and pride in what we represent to the world.
What they want is confidence and compassion!!!
After recent challenges and natural disasters, Sri Lanka is steadily getting back on its feet. Our heritage remains alive, our wildlife remains free and our warm culture continues to be lived every single day.
Most importantly, our people are ready to welcome travelers again. With warmth, honesty, and smile.

Sri Lanka is safe.
Sri Lanka is ready.

If you believe in responsible and authentic travel, I kindly invite you to share this message with your network of friends.

From muddy roots to pure bloom, Today’s lotus lesson became a reminder of how we rise.
Guiding my friends through the quiet grace of a Buddhist temple, I love showing how the lotus is more than a flower… it’s a story of letting go, growing through the ‘mud,’ and carrying home a souvenir that stays in the mind, not the suitcase.
These are the moments that make a journey meaningful.
