也許會有人對標題表示強烈反對，但不能吃辣的我在斯里蘭卡的確沒吃到甚麼美食，從頭幾天的失望，到後來只以填飽肚子為目標，科倫坡的這餐咖喱蟹，算是少有的美食（雖然還是辣得我噴火）。讓V找好吃的從不會錯，不過她在斯里蘭卡也是操碎了心。 .... (read more) “斯里蘭卡(5)美食沙漠”

感恩在Yala Safari超額完成，我們省下時間逃離悶熱的叢林，南下到海邊古城Galle，吹一吹印度洋的海風，尋找立釣的漁民。

Stilt Fishing是斯里蘭卡有名的海岸線風光，二戰時期糧食短缺，窮得連出海的船都沒有，只能把木竿插在近岸的海裡，像踩高蹺般站在上面垂釣，漁獲並不多，但戰時每一口食物都份外珍貴。 .... (read more) “斯里蘭卡(4)印度洋立釣”

清晨5點爬起來，摸黑到Nine Arches Bridge拍晨光，寥寥的遊客各佔一個角落拍照，流浪狗群偶爾打一架。山裡看不見日出，但晨光打在拱橋上特別漂亮，火車經過的一刻大家都屏息等待。當越來越多人到達開始爭奪拍照位置時，我們早已拍夠，滿意地離開。 .... (read more) “斯里蘭卡(3)幸運Safari”

斯里蘭卡太熱了，我和V拼命往高地走，茶園小鎮Haputale位於海拔1500米。

午後下了一場大雨，我裹著薄外套瑟瑟發抖，這也太涼了吧！

清涼的山區，睡醒就能看日出，呼吸著最純淨的空氣，看夠了躲回被窩裡取暖。睡醒的V用愉快的聲音說：「這是最適合我的温度啊！」 .... (read more) “斯里蘭卡(2)高山茶園”

一年一度和V的大trip總是令人期待，早半年就買好機票，卻只訂了頭兩晚住宿和第一程火車便出發。「科倫坡見！」V在悉尼上飛機時，我還在上班，嗯對，又是我那下班上機落機上班的一貫作風。

熟練的提款、買上網卡，用call車app找了輛tuk .... (read more) “斯里蘭卡(1)火車大全”

這是個即興到不行的旅行，只用了一個小時就夾好日子訂了機票，三天兩夜快閃檳城，連行程也懶得計劃。這次是老朋友、新旅伴，畢竟上次一起旅行以經是咸豐年的事了，那個在瑞典騙我去睡火車站，然後在波羅的海被我騙去爬窗進旅舍的M。 .... (read more) “快閃慢活在檳城”

When I was doing research about the trip, almost every page said that the Burmese trains are slow, old, and with frequent delays. Err, that makes it even more attractive to me. Let's do it!

Buying tickets from this ancient station with the time tables written on a chalkboard. Where on the contrary, there's plenty of mobile phone charging stations! .... (read more) “緬甸Day 5-8:大金石／仰光”

從台灣回來落機沒兩天又一簽證到手，七年前那對一起《悅。走越南》的女孩，因工作分隔中港兩地。然而一個倉卒的晚上，一張特價的機票，隔著冰冷的屏幕聊著熱血的行程，我們決定飛往冷門但炎熱的緬甸。

Taking the midnight flight means we could save a day of annual leave and going straight to the airport after work. Yet the draw back is, when we landed in this stranger airport, searching for our hostel in the dark road side. We almost got scared to death by a pack of stray dogs barking crazily from the middle of nowhere. Well but we did get to our hostel safely, as usual. From Yangon to Bagan we could either take the overnight bus or the plane. To save time, we took the plane. .... (read more) “緬甸Day 1-4: Bagan萬佛朝宗”
