South of Sri Lanka is a paradise place for digital nomads and remote freelancers. I love this place. For now it’s over for uncertain time. Tomorrow is my flight back to Vietnam. Hope to come back one day.

Just got the reply from the Russian Embassy. Looks like they totally don’t care about my transfer safety from my accommodation to the airport. They just copy-pasted the standard reply about the in-airport safety ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

This is similar to the IT security. The encrypted data transfer is not the same as the encrypted data storage!

Not only Facebook, WhatsApp, YouTube and Instagram, but also the railway traffic in Sri Lanka stopped due to the curfew until 6a.m.

This is Colombo / Sri Lanka 🇱🇰

Facebook is blocked in Sri Lanka, but almost everyone in Colombo airport is scrolling Facebook pages. I ask random Sri Lankan guys how do they get their Facebook working and the answer was simple: — I use VPN, it’s a common knowledge today ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
