Well I’m a new subscriber… I watched a few of your videos already and to be honest, I love them, an honest and straight up depiction of REAL life. Keep the good stuff coming, you’re smashing it! Much love 😊
Fun times in the food carriage 😮 I like your content because its raw and unfiltered and you just say what you're thinking. I love the candid transparent truthfulness of it. Keep up the great videos man! ❤
😂😂😂Who would have thought a train trip would be so funny!! love your politeness with people! 16minutes in & Im excited2 see more!! good job Reporter Marco!!😂Yummy biscuits!😀cant wait4 your next video!!😁
The cookie looks like Masala Vadai, fried ground dhal or split mung beans. It can be tasty but you have to expect the taste to be like it is, savory not sweet, to enjoy it.
@marcoroams I just liked the description then the spitting it back into the bag. You also mentioned hoping on a train to see where it will go. Sounds like a future video that you should try and make or atleast attempt
Hahaha, stumbled upn you 2 vlogs on Sri Lanka. So fun. Im from Sweden and have a house there, but couldnt visit for 5 yrs since all crap happened, you know. Coming summer Im going to go there and do my lifes journey. About transports, ask how much per km. Then calc from that. If they tell wrong, just laugh it off and go on, not the same stretch or street. All same roadside has same bs. Where you are now, its better off center of the city. You're doing good pal. Keep on going, and sharing. :)
Love the video Marco, Gave me a lot of anxiety though when you were leaning out that train and putting all you're trust in that exterior grab handle :O
Awesome vlog 😊 I personally don’t really have an interest in going over to that part of the world but I’m glad I could see parts of it through your video 👌
husband speaking - age 81, yep got another year added. Hay Mr. Marco - been wondering where you have been since New Years Eve. Hope you are well. It is 1pm on Sat. in Cebu. Lets go and see what you have to show us today.
Wow I really felt for you walking through the entire train like that, it must’ve been so uncomfortable. 😅😂 you’re such a large man having to squeeze by everyone with all eyes on you.
What a typical forigner 😂 he just thought the every snak shape of cookies gonna be the taste like it, its made from dhaal and fried snak and its savoury , sri lankan people love spice and savoury not like australia , One advice, if you want to try local food just dont expect for the western flavour ,coz this is asia
#3 train rides - I have had 3 in my life time. First was when I was 6 or 8, some where in there, so 70 plus years ago. I can only remember stepping on to the train from Edmonds to Seattle, Wash. Then the next two were to Chicago and back, 3 days each way. This was about 1984. Had an interesting return with an entitled old Bas--d, Wife and I were seated on the lower section of a double decker car. Signs said NO SMOKING, so an old guy was seated behind us smoking, seated right under a no smoking sign. I look at him and said you can't smoke here. He just looks away. I go out and find a lady steward, she comes back and says " you can't smoke here " ok, I will go out between the cars. Early AM, I wake up to smoke, I look over the seat - the AH was smoking again. I go find the lady and she says sir, you will stop smoking or the next stop YOU will be put off the train. He finally goes to the upper deck to a smoking section for the rest of the trip, but he lost his window seat. Every time I passed him I would give a little wave. Smokers are totally inconsiderate of other folks. ( most, not all )
At the moment I'm watching all yr videos again I'm in Philippines no tv no point buying tv for my house when I'm going home next week I had a Sri Lankan friend in Australia but he went back home he ask me to visit him but he mite be to busy now because he's a police chief now
@@marcoroams The petition that you signed and the people whom you met in front of the Colombo, Sri Lanka Fort Railway station and mistakenly thought you were from Israel seemed to be patriotic Sri Lanka Citizens who love the country and value democracy, promoting the historic Sri Lankan Supreme Court judgement, for which the country's Supreme Court Held Former President of Sri Lanka Gotabaya Rajapaksa, Former Prime Minister of Sri Lanka Mahinda Rajapaksa and Other Top Officials in Sri Lanka Responsible for the recent Economic Crisis that happened in Sri Lanka, which you most likely are aware that was known around the world via news media.
Usually Sri Lankans are very freindly, ..... I dont know why .. but in this video , every Sri Lankan looks soo stressed. sorry if it cause you an inconvenience ..
@@marcoroams As an Australian yourself, you could have purchased a 1st class train ticket to Kandy from Colombo, and booked a Colombo-Kandy Intercity Express train ride with an Airconditioned Train Compartment instead, without having a need to complain or make any of the viewers of this video complain about the train service in Sri Lanka. Ultimately the service for the train ride depends on the amount one pays for the ticket in Sri Lanka i.e. 3rd Class Ticket vs 2nd Class Ticket vs 1st Class Ticket for a train ride in Sri Lanka. The Sri Lankan Tourist Authorities promote Luxury Train services for Foreign Tourists, so why not pay a little bit extra and enjoy the train ride from Colombo to Kandy with some comfort and get a reserved seat on the train , instead of travelling on the 3rd Class Train Carriage in a crowded setting? Even Australian Citizens who have Sri Lankan Ancestry, who visit Sri Lanka on vacation likes to pay a bit extra and travel on a 1st Class train Compartment/Carriage that has an Airconditioned area with more luxury and comfort.
@@ruwanfonseka Forget it dude. This is the sort of guy who likes to go to Asia to feel "superior" and complain to get views after paying literally less than a subway ride for a 3 hour trip. He's not even going for travels as he literally admits "he knows nothing about this place". Just endless complaining, exaggeration, and misunderstandings to get similar simple minded commenters riled up and angry.
Nope! Riding that train would be ok in 1st class but what a shit show in the cheap cars. You faced the camera down the aisle to look for food and it looked like hundreds of eyes on you and every one looked angry! LMAO I just couldn't deal with that many people crammed in there...make me think the smell would be terrible! You should have tossed them shitty cookies to the monkeys just to see if they would eat them! Great video!
Those people must be going to work or coming back from work...they're not angry they look tired... These days the mental condition of people in Sri lanka is not good at all...Because of the economic crisis... And those are not cookies..he expected them to be sweet...but wade is not a sweet snack it's made out of dhal...you can't tell its taste just by looking at it with your eyes...And monkeys don't eat wade..They eat fruits and other foods of their choice...

#5 the train trip was a "trip" all by itself. Reminded me of my first trip to the PH. Stopped in Manila for two weeks to visit my wife's brother and then got on a huge cargo ship to Cebu. We had the cheap seats, bottom of the ship with hundreds of bunks, ( thanks to cheap mom in law ) who didn't want us to spend about $4. Less than 3rd class was you found a spot on the deck on top and hoped for no rain.
I would literally stay hungry rather than squeezing through jam-packed crowd lol even watching it kinda irritating lol 😂😂😂 on top of that the glares of the ppl is even horrifying as if you are the most wanted criminal kind who is on the loose 😂😂😂😂😂👍👍👍
haha ... as a Sri Lankan, iam worried on that too ... usually Sri Lankan people are very friendly but in this specific train, the people are like stressed out.
I think those people are very tired...They must be coming from work or going to work... These days the mental condition of the people in Sri lanka is not good at all...
@@Explorer55612 you’re trying to say I have an agenda to film “bad situations in Sri Lanka” when all I do is head out for the day and film what happens. Then I go to the next town and it’s more small and peaceful and you see how much fun I have with the locals… So I am saying your point is completely invalid.
Loving your vlogs! You really capture the authentic feel of a place and I end up feeling like I've been there! 😊
Thank you!! 🙏🏽😁
@@marcoroamsyou're welcome 😊

Thank you! Yep this is what these video are for! For you to come along on the journey
Maybe on your next vlog you go check out my home island in MICRONESIA PALAU,closer to Australia
Beautiful Marco
Many thanks!
How awkward walking through those people. 😶😬But your face eating the cookie! I laughed way too hard when you turned around and spit it out! 😂😂😂
I used to have some Sri Lankan friends online
they always told me to come and see for myself
these vlogumentaries are kind of cool way to see.
Yeah mate I like the Sri Lankans! As soon as you leave the major city everyone becomes much more friendly. Probably the same with where I come from

Yeah just a realistic look at a train journey in Sri Lanka!
Great video loved the intro and was funny watching you get to third class tbh
You must go to NEGOMBO so so so friendly than Colombo
Great content Marco.
Wow I really felt for you walking through the entire train like that, it must’ve been so uncomfortable. 😅😂 you’re such a large man having to squeeze by everyone with all eyes on you.
When will this be continued,found it a bit to short.
That’s interesting to hear my friend! I was thinking it was too long haha …
6 days!
What a typical forigner 😂 he just thought the every snak shape of cookies gonna be the taste like it, its made from dhaal and fried snak and its savoury , sri lankan people love spice and savoury not like australia ,
One advice, if you want to try local food just dont expect for the western flavour ,coz this is asia
You travel, you live, you learn my friend ✌🏼
@@marcoroams first you learn then you travel if nothing goes wrong you will live, cheers
Totally agreed😂
Stay home😂😅
If u can't respect the culture just leave the country❤

I agree with you. I'm a smoker and would never do that. Never smoke in confined places or inside.
Awesome vlog, scary train ride and "Mickey Mouse". Stay safe.
You must be super tall, your head was nearly hitting the roof 😂
Good old Marco pissing off the locals just to get to the restaurant car 😂

Pretty hectic ey😄

Haha nah that is the next train video
Where were you for New Year's Eve?.
Chilling in my room in the Philippines. Worn out! Haha
@@marcoroams I thought you would have been out videoing and seeing the New Year in.

Lol all in kandy, Ella and Marrisa everyone was super friendly!
@@marcoroams ohh thats good to hear Mickey Mouse .. waiting for your other videos too
Great content mate.
I have a rule - anybody approach me with any offers = scam
Hahaha the rule can be applied in most situations
TBH blood, it’s hard to love SL and the sub-continent. Massive difference from the peeps of SEA.
first off all you gotta ask the guard for the respective class instead of getting on to the 3 class compartment
Too much people in that train shits wild😂
Never book 3rd class if you don’t have to lol … feel bad for them, but I mean they are probably also conditioned to it 🤷🏽
