Housing in Sri Lanka

Hello All,

After one visit to Sri Lanka, I was struck by what a beautiful, tragic, inspriring country it is and I would like to live there. 

I am interested in living somewhere that is cooler than near the beaches or Colombo.

I liked Kandy, and the lovely Nurwaya Eliya area. 

I am a single woman of a certain age.  I would just need modest accommodations, but with modern plumbing, electricity, and quiet.  Internet access is a necessity, but it could be via local public facilities, although, of course, I would prefer home internet. 

Thank you to those who provided detailed costs in response to another forum question. Can one of you help me out with detailed costs for housing, utilities, food, household help et cetera.

Thank you very much!

Hi OneSojourner and welcome to Expat.com!

Why don't you start a new thread in Sri Lanka forum with all your questions? It may help.

I also invite you to post an advert in the section Housing in Sri Lanka.

All the best,
Harmonie.

I can offer you a nice room only with common kitchen , with atatched bath near the sea, just about 100 meters away, for $ 300 a month in the western coast of Sri Lanka- There are very many star class hotels near by.
