My experience with Numesh's family was absolutely wonderful. I had the privilege of tasting tradizional Sri Lankan food, lovingly and skillfully preparate, and to sharing deep and inspiring conversations on topic close to my heart. Such a Buddism and Sri Lankan customs. The warmth, kindness and genuine connection I felt were truly exceptional it was as if I had always been part of their home. It was a real, living, and deeply humanistic experience, far beyond ordinare hospitality. I wholehertedly recommend it to anyone wishing to live this authentic and immersione experience. Enjoy it 🥰
