Behind the scene;🎬 


The TV series Friends is very helpful for improving the language skills, especially those who are learning English as a second language. The conversations in the series are natural and based on everyday situations such as friendships, work, relationships, and family. This helps me to learn daily-use vocabulary, common phrases, and idiomatic expressions in a meaningful context. I design the wallpaper through “canva” either. It helps me to nail the article.

Exploring Ancient Anuradhapura

Last November, I visited ancient Anuradhapura twice, which carries the rich Sri Lankan heritage created by our ancestors. Anuradhapura is the first kingdom in Sri Lanka and was ruled by some of the greatest kings, such as King Pandukabhaya, King Devanampiya Tissa, and King Dutugemunu. Arahant Mihindu brought Buddhism to this island during this era. This visit became a truly memorable experience for me. Anuradhapura is one of the most iconic cities in Sri Lanka because it is famous for its ancient ruins, giant lakes, and warm hospitality. The surroundings were calm and respectful. When I went to the Ruwanwelisaya in the evening, I felt as if it was everything I had wanted throughout my life. It was extremely peaceful and gave a great sense of calm and relaxation to the mind. No matter your country or religion, I suggest visiting at least once—you will definitely become enchanted by the city of calm. When I looked outside from the vehicle’s window, everywhere, I saw green paddy field...
