Garbage CollectorsSri Lanka

Have you ever asked yourself where the garbage goes that we inevitably produce while spending time at beautiful beach hotels? I followed the garbage collectors in Southern Sri Lanka. What I found one can see below. The sour poisonous smell and the hazardous working conditions for 3 USD per day cannot be captured but need your imagination while watching the pictures. I am grateful to Keerthi Iresha and her team who let me experience a workday with open arms.
