Hi everyone!  I am American who is dating a Sri Lanka.  My boyfriend is planning on moving back home in a few years.  I am wondering what it is like to live and work in Sri Lanka.  What job opportunities are there?  I want to know because my boyfriend is concerned about bringing me over there to live.  He thinks that I will be miserable, but I don't agree.  I think I will be fine and I want to calm his worries.  Any info would be great.  Would love to connect with some Americans currently living in Sri Lanka.
