I then remembered I had a lady called Andrea’s phone number who was a member of the FB group and who was currently living in Sri Lanka. I called her and she said “come to Unawatuna and you will find what you need”, so I jumped in a tuk tuk and headed out.
Unawatuna turned out to be paradise and just outside of Galle. Hippies, tourists, bars, cafes, restaurants, live music and parties. I checked into the RockHouse guesthouse, which is fantastic, a huge room right in the centre of the action; I finally felt happy in Sri Lanka, and relaxed.
