Fairway Hotel - Colombo

June 06, 2018/ Global Hotel Guys

The Fairway Hotel in Colombo was, by far, our favorite of the two hotels in which we stayed in Sri Lanka's modern, bustling capital -- and the lesser expensive night's stay!

Lanka Beach Bungalows - Tangalle

June 06, 2018/ Global Hotel Guys

We stayed four nights at an oceanfront property on the southern coast of Sri Lanka in Spring 2018. It was a superb value and the perfect place to rest after several busy weeks touring around this wonderful island country.

We watched the *entire* Balinese community of Sibang Kaja, Bali INDONESIA perform a sunrise ceremony, honoring ancestors and much more we didn't fully understand. 💥 The setting was the stunning volcanic lakeside temple of Ulun Danu. This special two-hour event was last performed collectively twenty years ago. We were told this ritual "recharges everyone's spiritual batteries." Now that's community! 💖 #travelblogger #travelphotography #instagood #podcast #traveltips #love #travelmemories #lgbttravel #blogger #balitemple #sunrise #instagram#indonesia #ceremony #hotelguys1 #recharge #20years 👨🏻‍🤝‍👨🏼 Hotelguys.com 🇮🇩 Global Hotel Guys on Facebook 🌏 Global Hotel Guys on YouTube 💥New Podcast!
