Paradise Lost & Found 🗺️ A not-so-Serene Experience of Sigiriya, Sri Lanka
Sigiriya, for those unfamiliar, is a destination in central Sri Lanka where history allegedly seamlessly blends with nature and culture. It sounds utterly idyllic.

We traveled to this remote Indonesian speck fully expecting a touch of the rough-and-tumble.

Our modus operandi, when confronted with a stretch of sand in Asia, has long been the beach hop. A lightweight rucksack, a sensible hat, enough water to rehydrate a small camel, and the eternal, optimistic question: what lies beyond that distant, rocky outcrop? We’ve flogged ourselves up and down coastlines in Panama, Sri Lanka and
