"The cost of living in Sri Lanka is generally considered to be quite affordable. Basic necessities such as food, transportation, and housing are relatively inexpensive compared to other countries. Eating out at restaurants is also quite affordable, with a meal for two people costing around $10 USD. Utilities such as electricity and water are also relatively inexpensive.
