My Blog, started to record my adventures as I headed off to live and work in Sri Lanka for a couple of years in March 2006. The blog is now a general record of what I am doing, I have also added the VSO process detail from April 2005 for new Volunteers reading it. Please note: the views expressed in this blog are the author's own and do not necessarily reflect those of VSO.

Thirkovil Kovil Opening Ceremony
The organisation I am working for is the only one restoring religious buildings. the funding comes from the Norwegian Foreign Office. This oppening ceremony is in Thurkovil towards the south of Ampara district. I was treated as an important guest and as usual was asked to make a speech! Good day out though.
