With my morning drink in my left hand, which is most of the time / always coffee, I peeked through the thick palm tree forest that's almost annoyingly blocking what I want to be looking at. It's 6 am and I see a rastaman smiling while maneuvering his 9'4" longboard over little waves. Not complaining, just smiling and just loving it all, and why not? There is so much beauty out here in Sri Lanka, pelicans, warm water and waves and even palm trees decorated with bright colored male peacocks. After my coffee, I decided to swim out with my camera to meet the rastaman.
