Smena station — co-working, co-living, community.
Our Station
The very first Smena station was launched in Sri Lanka in 2017. Since then we have changed a few houses and settled in a beautiful villa with amazing garden in Weligama.
Smena station contains: — 6 simple and comfortable rooms; — large kitchen with all necessary stuff; — toilets and showers; — spacious working areas; — garden with bananas, coconuts and lovely monkeys.
There are two people of the same gender in the room. As for couples we allocate a separate room.
Why did we choose Sri Lanka?
Friendly people, safety and clean streets (in comparison with many other asian countries), allow you to relax completely.
A rich culture absorbed Buddhism, Hinduism, Christianity, Islam and local customs. So you do not have minute to get bored.
Fresh fruits and vegetables, coconuts and unique local cuisine (similar to Indian), fresh fish and the availability of any products.
A small (but constantly increasing) flow of tourists allows you to find a secret corner, and start up your own business or get a job as a volunteer in a local nonprofit organisation.
We are in love with sunsets over the sea, waves and surf. Sri Lanka is one of the best spots in the world both for the beginners and advanced surfers. Sunken ships and reefs are available even for the beginner divers.
The nature of Sri Lanka is gorgeous. Elephants, sea turtles (you can swim with them in the ocean), lizards in the garden, exotic birds singing in the morning, coral reefs.
