Pope Francis on Monday said he is considering to visit Sri Lanka as part of an Asian trip. “I think a trip to Asia can be done, especially because it’s a continent Benedict XVI did not get to, though he wanted to…maybe Sri Lanka, maybe the Philippines, I’m not sure,” Francis said, as quoted by Vatican watcher John Allen on the National Catholic Reporter.

Francis said this aboard Papal Air Craft on his way back to Vatican City, coming from World Youth Day (WYD) celebrations in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
