Sarah & Stu’s Arugam adventures prt3

We went shopping for a motorbike today.A? $1000 will get us a brand new 100cc Honda. Now that sounds like a darn good deal to me.A? Ia??m pretty sure the equivalent in England would cost around double that.A? Theory is we buy a bike and save money on the taxi rides wea??re going to use over the next 11 months.A? Sarah has other ideas.A? She has her mind set on a tuk-tuk.A? A red one.A? Wea??d be able to move around the island with it, carrying all our junk, strap the boards on the roof and go on surfaris, pick up friends etc.A? It would definitely add a different dimension to the trip and it all makes perfect sense, but ita??s quite a lot more cash to stump up.A? Watch this space for who gets their way.

Ita??s been a pretty eventful last few days.A? Since last we wrote wea??ve surfed every day but one, when it was Continue reading ‘Surf duds and tuk-tuks’

Producer Marijke van der Meer was holidaying in Sri Lanka when disaster struck in December 2004. Her personal report from one of the country’s devastated towns told of the harrowing situation there and the desperate need for aid.

Award winning (Re-) Broadcast on 1st March, 2010 How to order allopurinol online
In the southeastern Sri Lankan coastal town of Pottovil – a town with an ethnic mix of Singhalese and Tamils, Muslims and Buddhists – a golden statue of Buddha stares serenely over Arugam Bay. The bay was a Mecca for surfers, who stayed in guesthouses with names such as Chill Space Surf, Hideaway, Aloha and even the Tsunami Beach Hotel. The statue of Buddha is one of the few fully intact constructions in this demolished town where a thick layer of muddy dirt covers the ground.

Soldiers look on as bulldozers shove aside trees and bricks from destroyed dwellings. The bodies of some 1,000 people – killed within a few seconds of the tsunami – have been recovered. But there are many others missing and many families who have no roofs over their heads and are in so-called ‘collection centres’.

The medical situation is critical in this isolated district, where several people are saying that they feel neglected by the authorities because Continue reading ‘Classic Dox – Adrift in Sri Lanka On air: 5 February 2010 13:20 – 1 March 2010 13:20’

FINALLY went to arugam bay. i don’t find the beach as spectacular as the beaches in trinco but i can definitely see why the surfers love it. the waves are high, rough and mean business. will i make a nine hour journey to a’ bay again? perhaps. but only for the laid back culture that is unique to this place (it has the hippyness of hikka without its commercialness i think), Galaxy Lounge-the chilled out little place we staid for dirt cheap rates, the pizza at Saman’s Surf and Sun, the crab dish at Ranga’s Beach Hut, and the home made dark chocolate ice cream at Ghecko’s.
