Galle:
Galle Dutch Fort
@tamaraknell
Imagine an old Dutch military fort converted into a trendy brunch mecca. Galle feels like stepping into the winding alleys of a quaint European town. There is no place in Sri Lanka like it!

Beautiful pagoda right on the water. You can walk all around and enjoy the grounds.

Weligama:
Surf'n Lanka
@tamaraknell
This is the best beach to learn to surf. Tons of surf schools line the beach or you can just rent a board and get out there yourself.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Tamara Knell
Available for hire
Originally from LA, I've solo traveled to 58 countries at 27 years old.
Most of my travels have revolved around South East Asia, Central America, Europe, Australia, and South America.
I specialize in budget backpacking and slow travel. I focus my recommendations on adventure activities, nature, cultural experiences, local food, and nightlife.
I've had tons of crazy experiences along my journey that has shaped me into the confident backpacker I am today. I want every person (but women especially!) to feel the joy and freedom that comes from solo traveling.
I'll tell you the good, the bad, and the ugly. I've made tons of mistakes traveling; I've lost my debit card, had medical emergencies, stolen iPhones, and the occasional mental breakdown...or two. Traveling is not always picture perfect so I want to show you all the nitty gritty details to make sure you are THE most prepared for your backpacking adventure.
