Hey Chris good Video buddy. We had also a good time in Sri Lanka. The food is so delicious and the people are very friendly. We have to eat with fingers but it was so difficult for us 😅 Enjoy your time and love greetings to Sri Lanka 🇱🇰❤️😊
Hi Chris, I am an old Srilankan who left Srilanka many many years ago. For the last fourteen years I lived in Southern California (Bradbury). I couldn't believe when you showed the homeless area in downtown LA where we feed about 150 for the mothers day each year. I cannoy imagine why they love living in tents when there are plenty of opportunities here. One thing I must tell you that you helped Srilanka so much by helping their tourist industry at a time when they desperately needed. Some places you visited, even I have not visited in my 24 years. You are so nice and understand and appreciate the country as well as the hospitable people of Srilanka. Good luck and love to meet you in LA or Srilanka one day.❤
Hey Chris, my wife and I arrived in Sri Lanka yesterday, We are staying at The Villa In Mount Lavinia. Where are you spending the new year, there should be lots of great celebrationsc going on
First impressions hospitality is amazing, hotel looked empty which sucks for a beautiful property especially for $50 a night. Let the adventure begin 🙌
You probably don’t remember me, but I remember you from Sunburst! I was Class 10. But it’s cool seeing you doing well, traveling the world and having a successful TH-cam Channel! Super proud of you bro! I wish you nothing but love and success! You just earned a subscriber!
For the milk rice and roti, ideally best if you mix all the dishes together. It will enhance the flavour experience and you get a bit of everything in your mouth
@@Travelwithchris yeah mate I’ve watched a few other travel vloggers who have been to Sri Lanka and they have been my favourite series, so I think your Sri Lanka series will be amazing, it’s just a shame the people there are doing it tough with the countries current economic situation, will be a good series to do some extra tipping to the locals, I’ll try help out also.
Your words are so positive and makes so much energy in us, You will definitely enjoy the stay and coming back to this island frequently for sure, 6 months ago I was there for 1 month, just the definition of paradise.. try hot battered cuttle-fish (calamari), Roasted chicken kottu with EGB(Elephant house ginger beer) which is like ginger Ale and Lion Larger Beer with devilled chicken or any seafood item.. Must visit Bird Park Hambantota, Man Made Ridiyagama Safari Park, Pigeon Island National park, Kumana National Park, Ella Rock, Little Adams peak, Nuwaraeliya, Early morning visit to Sigiriya, Evening visit to pidurangala rock , Diyaluma Falls hike and sooo many beaches and mountain hikes.. Love to see your more and more vlogs from this beautiful island and refresh my memories till my next winter vacation to Srilanka.. Cheers 🖤
Roti is eaten with butter and dip in the chicken or fish curry sauce with sambol and could do just jam and chili sambol for sweet and sour with butter or just butter and jam! ! 😋
Clearly the waiter agreed with your assessment of you losing your mind, thinking the crows are "imaginary peacocks". 😆 But such a beautiful spot to enjoy breakfast.
Bro I live in US but I am Sri lankan.Go to galla,hikaduwa beach,ella,and kandy.Lot of tourists hang out areas that I stated above,plus lot of things to be explored n kandy.Take train..it is cheaper and fun.have fun and be safe.i never been to cali..but I been to Las Vegas and Laredo,Mexico.
Awesome video! Are you taking the train ride to Ella? That is on my bucket list…for sure! Also, the Nine Arches Bridge which is close to Ella. Enjoy your time in this beautiful country.
Super Good video friend. Small request: specially when eating Sri Lankan food you have to mix all things with your fingers and eat them using fingers too. The cutlery set is not useful on Sri Lankan food. When you mix all things and eat them with fingers the more taste you get.
Normally the hotels are offering a free breakfast buffets, not like this very simple dishes. I recommend you to travel weligama beach front down south for the peaceful stay and surfing, if you are a surfer, Ella for its scenic beauty and trekking on the little Adam's peak and Ella rock. The Uber drivers prefer cash payment first and they like the long distance, after the pandemic their services are almost nil. Even we find it difficult to book a Uber in the city limits of Colombo and especially after 10 pm. As a freelance traveller , I hope you will have alternative ways to reach your desired destination around our Island Nation. Hope you will enjoy stay in Srilanka and I'm happy to be your new subscriber. Enjoy your holidays,Chris👍
Thanks for the video, mosquitos and bed bugs, no way! I had that experience before when I lived in SL but do not want my European family to experience that when we visit there. 🙂
I have been to Negombo so many times This city was dominated by Tamils We did have fancy bus service They call us come & pick them up Our service is always full from point Pedro to Colombo . Sometimes we do but not always Even Jaffna Tamils call us . But no way for us to satisfy everyone Our service is daily
Chris, you can't have a favorite country in the places you have visited. God would be angry if you choose one over the other. 😁 The world is a beautiful place. I tried to imagine what the world was like when it was just Adam and Eve and noone else. It was beautiful but those 2 had to mess it up by being disobedient. Humans were not meant to live in slums. God didn't create a slum world. Greed, political instability causes poverty and robs people of enjoying the natural beauty of their country. It's a beautiful world. There is beauty in the most improvised countries. I'm pleased to see you focus on the goodness where ever you go.
Hey Chris good Video buddy. We had also a good time in Sri Lanka. The food is so delicious and the people are very friendly. We have to eat with fingers but it was so difficult for us 😅 Enjoy your time and love greetings to Sri Lanka 🇱🇰❤️😊
Thanks a lot for the love! I'm loving Sri Lanka, such a beautiful country! What was your favorite place!?

Chris you should get a small flag of every country you visited and make a wreath or bouquet with them for your home.
You will have a story for each.
I do that everywhere!!! 🥳 Its the only souvenir I buy in every country for myself ❤️🙏🏻

Your welcome Bro
Great content! Good information! Keep it up!
Thanks a lot!
Sri Lanka used to be called Ceylon back in the '50's. I always remember it from 4th grade because it had a tear drop shape.
Roti is eaten with butter and dip in the chicken or fish curry sauce with sambol and could do just jam and chili sambol for sweet and sour with butter or just butter and jam! ! 😋
Thank you so much!
You always choose hotels with such lovely views surrounded by water. The breakfast look so full and delicious!
Been on a roll watching your videos. 😊 Enjoying your travels. Hope to see you next time you visit your mom! Enjoy. Have fun.
Clearly the waiter agreed with your assessment of you losing your mind, thinking the crows are "imaginary peacocks". 😆 But such a beautiful spot to enjoy breakfast.
😂😂😂 so true!
Yo chris, make sure to mix your food when eating Sri Lankan food!
I definitely will do that now! 🙌🏻🔥
That traditional breakfast looks good. I can smell that coconut curry, lol. I wish I had some right now. Be well.🙏

Uber is super cheap and convenient but they try to get paid outside of Uber so they call to see if ur are paying cash. May work to your advantage.

Uber cancelling thing I guess it's mostly happening around the airport because they expect you to go to Colombo
Glad you're enjoying your self big up,

Bro did you by any chance visit CoffeeLab by Grandeeza while you were in Negombo? We are so close to this hotel. Wish we had known.

We love you Chris ♥
Welcome to Sri Lanka.
Thank you! What part of the island are you from?
I have been to Negombo so many times This city was dominated by Tamils
We did have fancy bus service They call us come & pick them up
Our service is always full from point Pedro to Colombo . Sometimes we do but not always
Even Jaffna Tamils call us . But no way for us to satisfy everyone
Our service is daily
Thanks for watching!
As a fellow Latino I can confirm…we do eat rice and beans with everything 😂😂😂
😊
Uber guys have their own meters( money meters). If you are on to shorter rides ubers dnt get paid much..
Believe me, I am a Sri Lankan living in the US, and I have never found a fruit that tastes good as in Sri Lanka. Wonder why???🤔🤔
🤓🤩
Nice video love from Sri Lanka
Thank you so much!
Beautiful video ..enjoy ur stay in sri lanka
Thank you so much 🙂
Welcome to Sri Lanka , bro 🙏👍👏👏❤️
In Singapore there are workers from Sri Lanka too.
Wow I had no idea, is that where you live?
Yes i am a Singaporean and i love your video
Hope you come to Singapore soon.👍
See if you can find a male peacock with open tail feathers Chris... Beautiful colours.....cassidy
I will be on the lookout! 🙌🏻
Hi chris
Your face like Sri lanka singer name - Nilan Hettiarachchi
Same face Cut
Enjoy your journey 👍
Good luck 👍
Ahaha that is funny! Thanks for the support!
Please go to Maldives near by.....
I will in the near future!
Chris, you can't have a favorite country in the places you have visited.
God would be angry if you choose one over the other. 😁 The world is a beautiful place.
I tried to imagine what the world was like when it was just Adam and Eve and noone else.
It was beautiful but those 2 had to mess it up by being disobedient.
Humans were not meant to live in slums. God didn't create a slum world.
Greed, political instability causes poverty and robs people of enjoying the natural beauty of their country.
It's a beautiful world. There is beauty in the most improvised countries. I'm pleased to see you focus on the goodness where ever you go.
You right don't planning nothing before your trip 👍
Great minds think alike! 🙌🏻🙏🏻
Nobody else in the hotel? Looks pretty peaceful.
I think I was the only one! 🙌🏻🙏🏻
@@Travelwithchris great the whole hotel is yours mate! Enjoy Sri Lanka and the chickens.
Welcome to 🇱🇰 ❤❤ 💎💎💎
Welcome to Sri Lanka ❤
If Use your hand for mixing food you can get better food taste in Sri lanka
😂😂😂 I'll leave that to you
I have done a video here.. lots of crows making noise..😊
Chris bro, you seeing those wild birds was a pissa!! Are they natural or from the hotel!!?! 😂 bruh just had a blonde moment sooo good lol!!
😂😂😂 facts, I did have a super blonde moment there
@@Travelwithchris 😂😂😂 your the man!! Always got me laughing!
Bro Chris did you just swallow the watermelon seeds lmao 😂 hella built different my guy lol 😂
😂😂😂 I did , man ever since I started traveling I realized everyone eats it like that lol but when I'm home seedless or nothing 🙏🏻💪🏻
You're connecting with nature 😂😂 not losing your mind. Birds are more receptive to your energy/vibration. They also can respond to your voice.
😂 I think you're right Mary! This was exactly what I needed ❤️
In the beginning when the waiter was describing the breakfast he was giving you the middle finger not purposely tho but that was hilarious lol
😂😂 I had to go back and watch, funny!

Uber drivers cancel here if you are paying by card. They get paid by Uber a week later so they prefer cash only.
Ahhhh that makes sense, dang I wish I would've known that!
