oh such a beauty.
you know i never much liked those carte postale pictures but yours make me feel present in them, a part of the image. as if i were there.
again this sky, was it like this for real, Zosia?

thank you so much

I remember the air in Sri Lanka being a very warm shade of yellow when it was sunny - this photo I guess is a mixture of what it was like, of cheap poorly stored film, and my memories of the Bay of Bengal
(isn't that a great geographical name!)

Β it's always a mixture isn't it. never an expected one, there is always a mystery factor, one we can't control.
when did you do go to this trip?

(when i hear Bengal, i can't help thinking of the tiger)

we went there after Naples almost 2 years ago (2 years in November), after our meeting in Florence.
we lived and worked in our friend's hostel all summer and managed to save enough money.
[ it wasn't very expensive, but we were very broke afterwards anyway ]

we spent a month travelling around and it felt like a short month - I'd really like to go back.

yes, I think that's what makes the name so cool. it sounds triumphant!

yes yes, i remember now and i remember Dafydd wanting to do a photo reportage about the Sri Lankian community in Naples after that.
broke is not enough reason for not traveling anyway

well, I find it hard to remember what happened to us and when!
I'm gonna have to start writing it down
and that's right, travelling makes being broke worth it
