"Travel isn't about ticking places off a list, it's about being fully present in each one"

I am a lifetime traveller who has spent decades exploring, connecting with people, discovering and falling in love with places all over the world. Having spent more than twenty of those years in Sri Lanka, somewhere along the way I became the person friends and associates turned to when planning a visit and wanting to know what was genuinely worth discovering.

I’ve uncovered beautiful old hotels and secluded villas, hidden corners of the island and its extraordinary history, as well as enjoying everyday culinary feasts with some of the very special people who bring Sri Lanka to life.

I found myself increasingly immersed in creating memorable experiences for others and I love doing it. And so, Lanka Destinations was born and these journeys are designed to reveal ‘Life On This Island’.

I have come to know and trust a network of distinguished hoteliers, private residence owners, artists, culinary masters and local experts across Sri Lanka, supported by my affiliate ground team. Together, we bring knowledge, connections and impeccable attention to detail to every journey.

My philosophy is simple: to deliver an experience that stimulates curiosity and satisfies with discovery.

My hope is that you return: not only for 'Life On This Island', but for how it made you feel.
