TANGERINE TREES AND MARMALADE SKIES? TECHNICOLOUR SRI LANKA CHARMS IN A ROMANTIC IRISH SCRIBE It was enough to bring out the poet in Irish travel writer John Masterson when he arrived in Sri Lanka, “a technicolour country that brings into sharp focus the pluses and minuses of progress”. In “a land that is still different in a world becoming more uniform”, he found what he was looking for, where love and laughter abound and “a week doesn’t even scratch the surface”. Waxing lyrical in the Irish Independent, he writes that “in 1805, the British Governor, nicknamed King Tom, fell in love with Lavinia, a local dancer whom he could not marry. He built a tunnel from his house, now the Mount Lavinia Hotel, where they met in secret”. More below. #SriLanka #IrishIndependent
