Welcome to all British in Colombo! Are you interested in getting to know fellow British expats in Colombo? Are you looking for advice from other British, e.g. in which bars in Colombo will Esher RFC's upcoming match be broadcasted or where in town to shop for HP sauce, baked beans and Cadbury eggs?

You are cordially invited to take part in InterNations Colombo. Among the members of our international expat network, there is also a vibrant circle of British expats, coming from Cornwall, Yorkshire, the Scottish Lowlands and all parts of the UK.

These activities are a casual way to get to know expats from Sri Lanka in Colombo as well as British in Sri Lanka nationwide. Interested?
