Hello all, I am starting an online food website for Sri Lanka and I'm looking for some advice. I want to make certain foreign foods available to buy online, which will be delivered to your door. I want to find out; a) how likely you are to buy foreign food online? b) what types of food you would like to see on this website? Your input would be very helpful. Thanks.

Hi, yes I am interested and would certainly buy online, looking for good cheeses, pates, cold cooked meats such as quality ham, parma ham, salami, chorizo and also good raw meat such as steaks, lamb, duck etc.

Amber1976 initially posted:

Sorry if this is a duplicate but I think I messed up my first post. Anyway, my husband and I are looking to expat from the US while I finish my schooling. We have a family friend from Sri Lanka and they suggested we look to go there. We have 3 kids age 14 (girl), 6 (boy), and 3 (girl). So, I have a few questions if you can help. 1. Can we live decently on our budget of $3000 US/month? 2. Is the area safe for our children? 3. Do we need to worry about how we dress/kids dress? 4. We know we would need to leave at least every 6 months...any other visa worries? 5. Can we drink the water? Anything else we didn't think of? Thanks for your help. Amber
