Carrie's reaction to the puppy was pretty much mine too! So cute!

[@brinaf2857]

Same! He's precious! 😍

[@6709LeftzBehind]

Thank goodness you guys asked around about the puppy before taking it. Too many people would see an "abandoned" street puppy and end up removing it from its' mother before it should be. The mom ends up suffering and still out there to produce more puppies, but asking the property owner really was the best you could do since he's likely aware of the mother dog if she's around. Also, enjoyed the info about ayurveda!

Felt like i have taken a tour of Lanka with you people in this Lockdown .. well done buddies

[@elisabethm.lafontaine4835]

I really enjoyed this series vagabrothers. You guys really amazing. Love you guys, I'm from SriLanka❤️

[@irenefrancis]

Just a few suggestions, if you have not already returned to Sri Lanka, for surfing, you may want to try ' Arugam Bay '- along the South East Coast, Polunnaruwa, Heritance Kandalama, and Ugabay Passikudah ( East coast), and Peradeniya Gardens ( Kandy) as well, Willpatu National park. You will most definitely love the beaches on the East Coast of Sri Lanka which was also hit badly in the Boxing day Tsunami 2004. I should know, as I was there when it happened. East coast is known as the land of milk and honey. Bon Voyage.
