I have known Jagath since he was a teenager, when he was the personal attendant to my dear friend, the late Swiss Buddhist monk, Ven. Bhikkhu Sumedha, who lived in a cave near Jagath's village. I can testify that Jagath is an upright and honest young man who has been trained well in Buddhist ethical principles. I have recommended several of my American friends and students who traveled to Sri Lanka to employ Jagath as a tour guide. They were highly pleased with his services.

Twice we have had the good fortune to visit Sri Lanka and travel with Jagath. I would unequivocally recommend his services. He is a wonderful person responsible and responsive. He is full of insights about Sri Lankan culture and Buddhist history. Jagath was recommended to me by a good friend. With great confidence I have passed his name on to my friends!

We couldn't have been luckier to find Jagath as a guide and driver for the first part of our holiday in Sri Lanka. From the start he was helpful, courteous and highly professional. As the days passed we were also able to discover what good company he was and enjoyed his sense of humor. Very well informed and always discreet, he was the perfect host in this wonderful country.
