Jo Brown Lovely to read about your adventures and reunions and winding down to the end... We think you are in your last few days? Are you guys still up for us coming to Heathrow to see you all and hug briefly before you go on to Scotland? No pressure... but if it might work, we'd love it! Love Alan and Jo
Thinking Of Taking Gap Year Jess Hi, I overcame your great blog as I too am considering doing my Project Trust year in Sri Lanka so I apologise if I come up with many questions as you can probably understand it is a big step from what I have previously experienced! I am just wondering how you find the project you are currently on? Also, is there internet usage available so that I can contact home? I hope you have a great time! Thanks,
Jasmine Bennett You have an amazing blog! I have been selected to go to South Africa next year. I've just read your entire blog, you write about things so well! Sounds like you have had an amazing year, off to see your pictures now! :)

Janaka Hi Emma! My name is Janaka and I am all the way from Australia! I'm representing the Sri Lankan Youth Unite and Lead initiative and we are currently sponsoring/raising money for supplies for the orphanage you visited in Badulla for the year of 2013. I saw that you visited an orphanage in Badulla on your journey. I would love to hear from you and your experience their in order to raise awareness about the orphanage in the Australian community. Feel free to contact me via email. Cheers from down under! :)

Vihanga Accidentally came across this while searching on education in southern SL. Extremely glad to read of your well invested time here. The education sector in SL has many issues --- at pedagogic, administrative, resource and distributional levels (just to cite the bare minimum) --- and we can do with whatever we can invest on. Wish your future enterprises all the best! Cheers!

re: June
Dad I'm sure I was a little more manly in the well wash........... but apart from that I thought your summary of our visit was very good, it reminded me of what we did, and the heat, which we have had precious little of since we returned! Looking forward to seeing you again soon!
