What the creator captured
Vagabrothers found the train journey through the highlands and the immersive tea culture in Nuwara Eliya to be the definitive highlights of their Sri Lanka trip. They were particularly moved by the manual labor required for tea production after attempting to pluck leaves themselves alongside local Tamil women. The duo concluded that the combination of the cool mountain climate and the educational experience at the tea estate made this an unforgettable adventure.
