The Sri Lankan Way! Great people. Always something to learn here. Notice even the elderly have excellent rhythm when preparing meals. Real Sri Lankan style. God Bless Sri Lanka
Nice
Nicola ,haines
God bells you. Thank you.
Just imagine how strong a Sri Lankan house wife would be after doing all those work at their home. They literally make everything they need at their own house.
@Rushan Silva yhaa totally agree
Srilankan people heart is amazing .i live in tokyo wish they had same kind of hospitality
Thanx bro
@@loveradio4086 dhont thanks me , im a srilankan too , srilanka is best country to live ,trust me .
srilankans are very hospitable! i’m learning this from watching johnny’s vlogs.
@@user-sl3bx6gj3 even here they dnt sit near a forigners. Sad but truth .
Yes people is very nice but china take over our country . Sad
Great experience for sure you got to get "your hands dirty" cooking and your feet dirty walking....imagine the hours they spend preparing meals for their families from scratch every day....those men and women are very strong in so many ways...hard living compared to the ease of a kitchen we have at home...viv
Its not hard to us as a srilankan peoples.because completely day working time exercise and many more results available to the body.anyway thank you for your comment.
As a sri lankan I can clarify that the part in the beginning with the milling process of flour is quite rare, even in rural villages. Things like flour is bought from the stores, pre packaged . I think this was more for an "authentic village" experience.
Aww Sri Lanka is amazing. I would love to travel again aftre this stupid Covid.❤🇱🇰🇮🇪
Make a plan! =)
This was my life when i was growing up in Sri Lanka. It's honest, humble, and people will take care of you. They dont have much to share but they will share preety much everything they have with others. What you showed is that honest experience Johnny. Glad you showed the world what authentic village life is like!
This looks so beautiful! I hope to visit Sri Lanka too and make my videos too🙏❤️
Love Sri Lanka and it's culture from India.
Thanks brother.

wow this is the rice harvesting process, we never see this just cook rice
Yaa that's the way harvesting rice in rural area's Sri Lanka
it's not your fault that you had a have harvesting process, i blame the school you attend
@Row what are u trying to say?before I give u d response u deserve
I really like the way you experience the local culture by living among the villagers. It is those memories you will carry home. Your partner is really an asset enjoying just like a local girl. Thank you to both of you.
Hey jony .. im a srilankan who lives in italy, and im sharing ur videos with our naibours here, and showing how beautifull our country, thanks to you.. keep it up good work bro.. i wish good health to u and sweet christina 😍😘💐💐
Johnny your kindness to the dog in carrying him across the gushing water is very touching. He was happy to let you carry him.
You and Kristina make the best out of any experience.
What an exciting village adventure too !
Wonderful video again.
A stack of rice in the middle of the living room floor . . . Gangsta! 💪
Sri Lankan's love their rice!
I have seen videos of many TH-cam vloggers about Sri Lanka and you jonny impressed the most. Just you are so down to earth and not hesitating to go to rural villages and experience the things even we haven’t experienced as Sri Lankans. I feel sad and ashamed sometimes because even I haven’t traveled much around my country. Some places are so astonishing even i get surprised. Thank to you and christina for doing this. Mind you chirstina is much better at catching the local words and phrases.
What I love to see is how Kristina enjoys every movement with a nice smile... She is such a nice lady....
Yes. She has good attitudes. 🤗🤗🤗
Just wish Johnny would not pester her so much.
If you travel Europe or any other country than you can't enter very easy to they house. ... srilanka totally different I impressed
Any time dude.
Yes 2017 I visit to srilanka I got my srilanka friends he's name: imran from matale. It' ways wonderful day's. Like to visit agina after corona . Thank you guy's
@@harshakumara970 my experience even don't know them. They treat like a family. I also had lunch one place. They don't me. I can't forget tht moment
@@harshakumara970 wrong,
Worlds best Hospitality.
This is the natural rural life of sri lanka. Most of villagers prepare food without the use of electrical appliance and all services in the agricultural society were done by hand. Therefore they do not need extra exercise. The food prepared in this way is high in nutritional value. Tasty and nutritious these foods are perfect for boosting our immune system .Most srilankan (except urban) do not add any excessive flavorings and chemicals to their food .They always used only natural spices and
fresh vegetables and fruits .Instead plates they often used banana leaves and lotus leaves for food. Thank you JOHNNY for showing the wonders of srilanka to the world.
It's been my pleasure! I wish more people could see, live, and experience this!
I am a sri lankan girl..♥ This video made me happy... Thank you so much Mr.Johnny for this video.. Love..😍
Definitely it wasnt an artificial village tour. Truly a great experience for you.
"Hari Hari" in Sinhalese means "OK OK", Jhony took it as "Hurry Hurry" , despite the differences of meanings, it was sufficient to get away from leeches.
Mee mal (Mee = Madhuca/Mahua , Mal = flower), Madhuca seeds were used for getting oil for cooking,lighting lamps etc in past. By that time it was a severe offense if someone cuts a Madhuca tree and it is said it was subjected to death penalty . Gradually people turned in to using coconut for getting oil and use of Madhuca is now not so common.
They were also discussing, tourists like to you should be allowed to stay here as COVID situation is severe in other countries.
Absolutely, Johnny FD and Kristina are Sri Lankan . We should all be able to adopt nationalism as we please and don't let nationalism be hijacked by narrow minded people.
Even at village level the hospitality is at its’ best in Sri Lanka!✨
Johnny and Kristina another masterpiece. Better than 10 hours of nature programs- escapism at its best. So random to see two ponies. I am sorry about the leeches. Great way you flick them off , Johnny.
So natural so beautiful environment friendly, healthy food, no artificial what else? Every thing so fantastic. Live with nature so great.
i love the way Kristina says the word “authentic!”
Appreciate your effort man. Sri Lanka life style is strongly attached with nature. All these traditional cooking methods are doing so cleanly and that are very healthy than modern day foods. Keep it up dude ✌️
Proud to be a sri lankan... Thnx
That's a amazing experience good job .. I forever love my country
I just remembered my grandma's home in Monaragala. So much love was there
Personally thanks for your guys promoting Sri Lanka tourism. Love 😍 😍 from Sri Lankan people
Just amazing account.....you are so lucky to have stranded there...you two are glowing...look amazing with that blazing sun! Kristina is just the sweetest and the most humble lady. What an experience...and just after all this, a Pizza hut ad blazed at me...Hit me even harder with home sickness!
A very authentic experience you two had, You are very brave with the leaches. The food looked delicious.
ගමේ සෑම දෙයක්ම සරලයි ලස්සන ජීවන රටාව.

Paddy husks were used to make glass for the whole of the ancient world- hence the Latin name vitro- vi- Sinhala word for paddy . Paddy husks are 95% silicon

Jonny, at 15.37 the lady said that "me gollo yawana ekath honda nane. ". did u heard that? it means dnt let them go to US back during Covid crisis. it not safe for them. see how much SL peoples loves u guys.
Hi . This is beautiful Sri Lankan village life. What an Experience. When. I go home from UK. I do spend a week in the Katupotha village. Away from the busy Colombo. The capital..
What you guys are doing, is amazing. We should be greatful as a country.
Cheers!
Hi tiron
As an African srilanka will be my second home I like their way of life and hospitality 🙏🙏
You are taking good experience in ideas and behaviour and habits of our country village life ..and the natural environment and also about normal vilage Foods and villagers of our country 🏡
I think.
God bless you.
👍From Sri Lanka🌍
You two are becoming the favourite vloggers after Harald Bldar
The hospitality of the people of my country🙏🙏🙏💐💐💐💐
The taste of the paradise. Good luck Jonny, keep it up.
You could see the Portuguese origins mixed with the bengali roots so many generations on. Pretty amazing! When you compare that with the darker skinned natives of the island in Jaffna.
The buffet looks yummy! ❤️
About the beetle leaves, many villagers chew it only when they are doing something tiring. So it gives you a boost. But chewing it regularly will coz Mouth Cancer. Many villagers in the video was trying to tell you that. Anyways hatsoff to SLTDA for taking you for such a wonderfull place. 💚
Yeah but the translator guy didn’t translate that part 🤦♂️ and some other things on the way
Thank you for showing how beautiful and how difficult village life in one video..
Awesome video! I live in Sri Lanka... Wish I had seen these videos sooner. I would love to experience a village tour like that.
Next time!
Cute
Thank you johnny for disclouse these food facts to the world.its awesome how friendly these people in my country.🤩🇱🇰♥️

God bless you all. I am sri lanka
I love this video, that's amazing experience! These people living in harmony with nature. Great life style!
Couldn't agree more!
Mirian, believe you are not Sri Lankan. That's typical Sri Lankan village life, so simple, so unsophisticated, so unaffected by what's happening in the outside world.
Johnny, thank you so much for all the kind words about sri lanka and big thanks to your lady friend too.Both of so true Honest ,very Appreciative About every thing
As srilankan we tack is as granted .All the very best in the world for both in every think you do
Sweet, you two really embraced the village life. Love the dance with the stick 😅

My good frend .firstly i lick to say thank to you for your amazing videos about my cantry .so ather think is you have been show to the world about our tredithional activity and hospitality .
One of the best videos you’ve ever made.
They should have shown you how two people pound rice in tandem too. Johhny almost got the rhythm.
Yo Johnny you've got what Sri Lankans called "Athe Guna" loosely translates to (In your blood/hands) picking up all the local skills quite well on your first go!
Johny the tribal man has introduced a new tribal dance to the traditional way of pounding grain.........🤔 Johny a hearty congratz pal with much Love and Concern.........!!!
18:57 you look like an ancient SL warrior with the sickle😁 31:32 its called Hug Galla. 38:27 such beautiful people and land, lead by corrupt politicians for 70 years 😟 Thanks for sharing.
BTW go to a place called gage wadiya for boat Safari and river camping . It's near kalpitiya also borderd by wilpattu national park so you guys can visit all those 3 places
So authentic and with open hearts
Seems like lots of Sri Lankans are big fans.
One of the best video you created.
I love all the videos Thanks sir..you are very kindly explained about sri..lanka...all the videos are very beautiful..🤗👍❤❤❤❤❤
Woww woww what a wonderful life, natural nature, farm life makes mind and body healthy feeling.
This busy world makes only stressful, we oly spent money to buy small happens still not less longer
Thank you for both of you to bring this life is a real lively👍👍💜👍
Wow Rice and Curry . Sri Lankan style. What a spread.
That's so interesting to see your village life in Sri Lanka. I love it, I wish, I was there.
Pure sri Lankan ❤
You are truly luckier than we are because we do not have time to appreciate what we have.good job
I love my country ❤️❤️❤️🌷🌷🌷

Johnny with all the turmoil in the world, this past video was so beautiful to watch. It gave me a sense of peacefulness and tranquility which inhabits our world. It reminded me of all my past travels in the hills of Jamaica. 🌴🌿🌞
