Misty Trails, Unexpected Rain, Unforgettable Views

Hiked 10-12 km with friends on a sunny morning, but it suddenly started raining 14°C felt freezing! No rain gear, so take an umbrella. Despite that, the misty trails and World's End made it unforgettable

It’s sheer delight riding in Aashik’s car—superb driving skills. He is also conversational and informative while driving, willing to share his insights into Sri Lankan society and culture.
