I agree that about the friendliness of the Sri Lankans. I experienced that a lot when I was in Sri Lanka. I love your energy and positivity. I remember they have the best curries in Sri Lanka. Check out Hikkaduwa beach. Those dogs are sooo cute and friendly! :)
They’re amazing eh?!? So happy that you got to experience that too! They have amazing curries and we’ve been having so many already! 🤤
Hi i am Sri Lankan, but my great grandmother on my dad"s side was Scottish. So glad you guys are enjoying and loving our beautiful country.
Aww that’s amazing! 🏴 we are enjoying Sri Lanka so much! ✨
I really love the vibes and the energy of your video. You were absolutely correct. Without going to the flow of the locals you cannot understand how it goes. Hope you are having your best times in Sri Lanka ❤️
That’s exactly how we travel and we are loving our time here! Let us know if you have any recommendations for us! ✨
@SilkyRonTheRoad Sure. You can travel to Polonnaruwa - Minneriya to see wild elephants. If you go to Udawalawe or Pinnawala, you can also visit them. Then at central Sri Lanka is full of waterfalls. It's a diversified place abundance in everything within this little area.
@anuradhaabhayawardhana3860 with all of the rain now I bet that the waterfalls are incredible! 😍
@SilkyRonTheRoad Yeah. That means you are still in Sri Lanka. Yeah. These days, they are active. If you take the train from Comobo to Ella, you will never forget(maybe you already had that experience😊)
There are so many waterfalls in Nuwara Eliya, Ella, Haputale, and Balangoda areas. But some are very dangerous in the rainy season.
I have not had a genuine smile in 3 weeks - that dance made my life light up. Thank you!
Wow, we are so happy that you enjoyed it, we have plenty more little dances in our other vlogs!
If you ever need us, you know where we are! ❤️

Definitely you can enjoy a budget stay here in Sri Lanka 🇱🇰 . Thanks for visiting Sri Lanka
We really can! We love it here! 🙌🏼
Hey guys. If you are still in Negombo go to Zameeha restaurant . By the periyamulla junction. try delicious food there. Cheese kottu and sea food fried rice. You will love it.
We have left Negombo but will for sure come back! 😉 any other recommendations are welcome! ✨
Brilliant share, although Srilanka might be affordable(or should I say cheap) I think $5 a day is way too low, and you are left starving unless you find friendly locals who give food for free but then, you can not say you spent $5 a day because their food has to come from somewhere.
Now having said that, I have really enjoyed your video and I can well see how affordable Srilanka is for a traveller on a tight budget.
A brilliant video with a very useful experiment, I really appreciate the share, have fun,take care and I'm looking forward to future videos and follow your adventures as I hope to one day visit Sri Lanka
We agree! In most places, unless you really spend some time there getting to know the locals (or if they just give you the local prices) it will probably cost you more than this! But in Negombo we were very surprised to have most people telling us the local prices which honestly made it hard for us to spend the full $5… 😅 you saw how much food we had! 😂
We hope that you have a wonderful day! ✨🙏🏼✨
Welcome back to Sri Lanka guys ♥
Thank you so much! ✨
Love this video ❤
We are so happy to hear that! ✨
Thank you for sharing food places. I am always a little worried about finding vegetarian places/options when traveling!
It’s one of our favourite things to do, discover the best food! 🤤 which country have you found easiest for vegetarians? ✨
@@SilkyRonTheRoadItaly was super easy because of all the pasta and pizza!😂 But Spain and Greece I would have to say were the most accommodating.
Nice vlog!!!
