    I'm coming to Sri Lanka in February, can't wait! These tips will help me a lot, thanks! I saw on your stories that you stayed at Verse Collective at some point, how's the internet there and how long do you recommend staying in that town? Thanks Steve!

    • @SteveYalo
      @SteveYalo  5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      The internet is pretty good in Verse Collective since it's a co-working space. And the area around there is one of my favorites. Hiriketiya is an amazing beach. I'd recommend at least 3 days

    Well well u r alive, kicking& glowing too, we thought u somehow vanished into the SL twilight zone w a runaway bride somewhere along Matale mountains or Bentota back waters while Tal & Brandon Dropping 1 Vlog after another daily basis while singing away their 'santhosha' & blue songs.
    Good helpful advises, while on the subject of 'Bums' & sprayers u forgot to tell about Asia's ubiquitous acrobatic squatty toilets that Tal & Brandon regularly showcase & get a kick out of it took. Also tell people to start slowly on hot-spicy foods with milk or yogurty drinks& water in hand while getting mild dishes & skipping chilly pieces out for the 1st few days before diving in too fast. lastly not just North but Eastern SL too has majority Tamils who are Hindus, Muslims & large % of Christian(Tamils) too.

    Hey Steve, you have to mix curries and rice well together by mixing them together and squeezing lightly with fingertips. e call this 'Ananawa' in Sinhala and it is essential to take flavors out and mix each other well in order to make the ultimate heaven of all flavors.
    Food should not go beyond 2nd joint of your finger and can't touch your palm, that is the etiquette.
    And.....
    You start eating form the near-side not far-side.
    Happy eating buddy. Keep in mind to use your right hand, left one is for the other thing.
