Local Cultural and Community Stories
Personal and community-focused stories about local life, including agriculture, peace initiatives, and cultural experiences in Sri Lanka.
Only in Sri Lanka could a dog become a peace ambassador and chickens be the ultimate flex of rural hipster living. Monks walking for peace, roosters living their best life - meanwhile, the rest of us are just trying to survive our daily commute without losing our minds.
Aloka, known as the Peace Dog, is currently in Sri Lanka as part of the Walk for Peace initiative. 🐾🇱🇰 He has been travelling with a group of monks led by Ven. Pannakkara Thera, taking part in a peace walk promoting compassion, non-violence, and coexistence. A quiet companion https://t.co/POfA7fkzfr

Organic 🐔 ගම් කුකුලෝ, my cousin gifted me a rooster & 2 hens I never caged 'em. Our 🏡😇 with a medium side 🥭 tree, they get there before sunset. Bred rapidly, and I always lost count around 110 to 120. I love spaghetti with olive oil, they do too. #Colombo 🇱🇰 #SriLanka https://t.co/BYnfqq6bEQ
