Two adults, luggage, two small children, and a tuk-tuk due to an Asian country to travel in. “I love adventure and off the beaten roads, steps,” says Tribe.

The family had been to Singapore, Thailand, Laos, and Vietnam, have already been visited during a long stay in Asia. The tuk-tuk was on her way over with a friend who made a similar trip is made at the time.

“I haven’t really looked into it to transport to the island of Sri Lanka. When I saw that several people in this tuk-tuk did it, I knew that this was a good thing to do. And it is not completely unreasonable.”

Time for the departure < / p> when it comes to Sri Lanka, were given to Tribe, and it was a half-afternoon of training. “Personally, that kind of thing to control, it is so much more fun than in the back to sit. Everyone else, drive it around, and you’re a part of it, which is a nice feeling.”

Due to the presence of two of the children were to stay all pre-planned. “We had a couple of booked nights, and usually in hotels or in a safari tent. Next, we assessed where we were supposed to.” They went out to the nature and visited the towns and cities, and all that is in the property.

The exception was made in the first instance, for the two weeks of progress, but it was after that period of time, with two weeks extended. The journey was quite smooth, and takes Root. “We were going on a run out of fuel and didn’t know what we needed to fill.”

elephant road

The family learned during their journey, and an elephant charges, and when they are with a group of jeeps drive by with a reserve for some reason. “The elephant that came to us in search of food. He ran around us as we slowly drove away. It was a little stressful.”

Sometimes, they came up with their trunks up close, so the Tribe was afraid that the children will be a blow to our people. “It was not a pleasant experience.”

“the Elephants will only be on the side if you eat.”

At any other time, there was an elephant in the middle of the road, in search of food. “They are going to only be on the side if you give them something.” In advance of this was explained, but the family had no food with them.

“do you have your property up for such a big beast. It was a very exciting moment. Certainly, after that earlier experience. Eventually, there will be a car with a car that banana in them.

Turtle watching, and snorkeling , walking,

On the trip were the sea turtles were spotted, it was along the coast, snorkel, and were walking through the highlands and made were the tea estates were visited. “We were all over the place in the property. It made our holiday a very rich and varied.”

Wood’s ass through the bumps in the road < / p> you can, of Course, the kids were sometimes annoying when there are long distances, driven by the nature of the property, it emphasizes the Tribe. “It’s you, it’s still sitting there, and you’ve got a wooden butt of all the bumps. You need to have a more luxurious car. But that, too, and touch your dreams.”

the Advantage of the tuk-tuk was the fact that they have a lot of stuff in the back had to lie down. “In other countries, we will always have a backpack with you. There were all the stuff is in the back of the tuk-tuk, and we took them to wherever you want to go. This made it easier to travel.”

The thing is all the way open, so the sun, the wind and the rain are coming in from all sides. “You’re making it all up close. It was also quite nice, with the four of us are in this thing.”
