Thanks for sharing this. It's wonderful people like Mr Kuttan that make travel so special.

I've just finished a short book by Alan Bennett, 'The Uncommon Reader', about another notable personage whose job it is to make everyone feel comfortable and welcome in their presence. Seeing Mr. Kuttan's serene face, it makes me wonder what his private thoughts might have been all those years. And if he'd written them down and had them tucked away somewhere, to be revealed at a later date. I suspect not, under the circumstances, but wouldn't it be interesting?

There are a few people you meet who have natural "Charisma" They stay in your mind and have a effect on you and the way you see the world. You were lucky to have met this man.

'Kuttan' was the doorman and official greeter of the Galle Face Hotel in Colombo. He'd be the one who'd come to your car as it rolled into the driveway to open the car door for you.
