Description
🌿 Camp in Untouched Nature & Explore the Hidden Beauty of Sri Lanka 🌿
Hi! I'm a nature-loving local based in Sri Lanka, and I love connecting with travelers who are open-minded, curious, and passionate about the outdoors. I invite you to join me in discovering raw, wild, and peaceful parts of Sri Lanka—far from busy tourist areas.
We’ll spend time in nature, help each other with simple tasks like setting up camp, cooking, or sharing stories around the fire. Together, we’ll explore incredible places that are not easy to reach without local connection—misty mountains, hidden waterfalls, natural pools, and untouched forests.
This is a slow, simple lifestyle close to the earth. You’ll get to:
Sleep under the stars in remote campsites
Hike through forests and ancient paths
Visit stunning secret spots known only to locals
Share food, culture, and laughter around a fire
Help with content creation if you’re creative
A safe, immersive experience with locals
Real Sri Lankan hospitality
Quiet time to disconnect and reset in nature
Come to a unforgettable adventure in the wild soul of Sri Lanka 🌄

UN sustainability goals this host is trying to achieve
Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
In their free time, guests can immerse themselves in nature, enjoy activities like hiking, swimming in natural surroundings, embark on jungle treks, visit Sinharaja Forest with its waterfalls, and partake in local experiences. Situated off the main road along a gravel path, the estate is accessible by Tuktuk or a scenic walk, with luggage transport provided. The accommodations are simple and reflective of the local lifestyle, offering private spaces while sharing sanitary facilities with the family. The goal is to convert a vacant house into a space dedicated to ecotourism.

Help
Tourists can contribute significantly by assisting in various aspects of daily plantation life. Tasks may include participating in tea, pepper, and cinnamon harvesting, helping with planting activities, and engaging in sustainable agricultural practices. Additionally, volunteers can collaborate with the local community, fostering cultural exchange and gaining insights into traditional farming methods. Your involvement not only supports the elderly owners and their young son but also promotes eco-friendly initiatives. Embrace this opportunity to be hands-on in a picturesque setting, making a positive impact on both the plantation and the local community.

Accommodation
You'll be staying in a simple room within a local tea-picker's family home, sharing bathroom facilities with them. The house is situated atop a hill at an altitude of 1200 meters, surrounded by picturesque tea plantations. It stands in isolation, accessible via a gravel road. The serene environment allows for privacy when needed. There are no neighboring houses, shops, or eateries, with the nearest town approximately 8 km away. The owners are willing to assist with transportation for shopping or sightseeing, and their son Pivi serves as a knowledgeable guide.
We provide daily breakfast, lunch, and dinner on the farm. We serve healthy, fresh meals with minimal meat or fish. Sri Lankan breakfast typically includes hoppers or bread with coconut, an egg, fresh fruit, and tea. For lunch, there’s a salad with fresh vegetables, and dinner consists of an extensive rice and curry spread with around five individually served dishes, including dessert. Tea and water are available at all times.
What else ...
"Embark on a transformative journey in the heart of Sri Lanka's lush mountains, where ecotourism meets cultural immersion. Join us in the sustainable beauty of tea, pepper, and cinnamon plantations, surrounded by nature's wonders, and contribute to a legacy of responsible travel."
