Driving in Galle, Sri Lanka (2022) - Part 1 | Rathgama → Galle Fort (4K)
มุมมอง 5392 ปีที่แล้ว
This is a drive from Rathgama to Galle Fort at the sunset. Rathgama is the neighbouring town of the much popular Hikkaduwa area. This road is the so-called "Galle road" that connects Colombo and Galle. I quite liked the climate in Galle (humid, yet quite windy), and the setting sun has accentuated the stereotypical expectation about the I had about driving through a coastal city. Some Timestamp...
Sunset Walk in Galle Fort, Sri Lanka
มุมมอง 2152 ปีที่แล้ว
This is a quick evening walk in the Galle Fort, Sri Lanka, which is located about 100 km south from the capital of Colombo. I didn't plan to record a video at this time, but saw the sky being on fire and quickly decided to record one. I couldn't use proper wind protection and therefore, some wind noise is present. Even though the audio is binaural, I don't really recommend listening with headph...
Gloomy Evening Drive - Southern Expressway, Sri Lanka (4K, 3D Audio)
มุมมอง 4002 ปีที่แล้ว
We now have just enough fuel to travel a bit so I’ve headed to Galle this weekend. This is a drive at around the sunset time, from Welipenna service area to the Pinnaduwa exit. There was quite a gloomy vibe throughout the drive due to the shades of the dark clouds. Galle is situated about 100km south from the capital of Colombo, and it’s known for beaches and tourism in general (there’s more th...

Sri Lanka is undergoing its worst economic crisis in the recent history. Fuel distribution to the general public is halted until further notice, which forced many businesses and services to temporarily shut down.

This is the Kalpitiya beach, which is located about 200 km North from the capital city of Colombo, Sri Lanka. The area gets quite windy during the mid of the year and it's known for activities like kite surfing. I went this morning to capture the ambience on the beach expecting a sun rise with wind turbines in the frame, but it was a gloomy day full of clouds. The video contains sounds of the o...
Sunset Drive through the Mountains and Tea Plantations - Sri Lanka (4K)
มุมมอง 1.4K2 ปีที่แล้ว
I'm driving from Nuwara Eliya towards Kandy. For a significant part, the road goes through tea plantations. In my opinion, this is a lesser known road in Sri Lanka for its scenic views during the drive. Unfortunately, my camera kept freezing towards the end and it does not have the best low light performance. Hoping to do a better video in future. This video is available in 4K. Some other drive...

      That’s $4 billion at least. It’s an economic corridor that would be most beneficial when the conditions are ready for it. Right now is not the time. There also a lot of social issues that would occur because of it, Lankans aren’t particularly fond of Indians due to a variety of issues, and the influx of Indians coming in from a corridor would create problems. Also nice username. According to an old Rockwell International Corporation business map, 2036 or so is when the US will send a space probe there.
