When youre ready to escape the tropical climate of the coast and lowlands, head for the hills, which are verdant, virescent and virally infectious with allure. Impossibly green tea plantations and rainforested peaks beckon walkers, trekkers or just those who want to see it on a spectacular train ride. And then there are the beaches. The beaches! Dazzlingly white and all so often untrod, they ring the island so that no matter where you go, youll be near a sandy gem. Should you beat the inevitable languor, you can surf and dive world-class sites without world-class crowds.

The time we (me and seven other leos of Nepal) entered into Sri Lanka till we departed, I remember each and every moment and I must say thank you for everything. Your warm hospitality and friendly behaviour made us to feel like at home. Overall the experience of the Leo International Youth Camp of Leo District A2 was outstanding. I think the ideas and concept of work and the team building effort which I learn from there will help me in my daily life. I still give example of you all over here and everywhere, Not only in the camp but we also got chance to learn about your culture, tradition, food and language. Finally at the time of depart from your country our eyes were moist with a hope that this friendship will last for ever .

Leo Youth Camp is one of major annual events of Leo District 306 A2. I dont have enough words to express the experience and fun of Leo Youth Camps because its that much enjoyable. Its a place where we find our new leaders. Most of the leaders in district 306 A2 showed their talents in youth camps and came up. Specialties of our camps are that we practice all the qualities which real leaders should have through discussions, activities, outbound trainings, adventurous hikes and games. As I believe those three days changed our lives with an unlimited fun. We are talking about camp fire and mada session for years after the camp. I think every Leo should participate in a youth camp which will be an unforgettable experience in their lives. Leo Charith Siriwardhana| Regional Co-ordinator | Leo District 306 A2 | Sri Lanka
