- I explored my the 2nd largest city of Sri Lanka with my friend @GoWithAli , a fairly chilled out city with some very friendly locals. I tried a Sri Lankan breakfast and bought some items from the local market.

Thank you for being humble and genuine. Enjoy your stay in Sri Lanka🇱🇰. New subscriber 🙌🏻.
thanks for the kind words!
@@harryjaggardtravel bro i think 🤔 your All subscriber now your cricket Environment . Harry bro you should be make videos on sir Lanka cricket. I infom you sir Lanka domistic cricket is taking place in Sri Lanka these days .... My English is not well I hope you understand
U r very kind person, #lovePakistan 🇵🇰❤️ love to follow u n ur vlogs
@@harryjaggardtravel It’s hilarious to see white people getting excited, being dramatic and calling it “chaotic” when they see 10 people on the streets of Sri Lanka 🇱🇰 (because it’s not a “white” people majority country) and not having a problem with a place like New York City that’s literally chaotic (epitome of chaos) and filthy and dirty (with stinking roads covered in garbage and urine all over the streets and stations and shocking traffic because it’s a so-called developed country with majority white people). Also, it’s not hot in countries like Australia when the temperature goes up to 40 degrees (Celsius) giving you skin cancer. That’s perfect weather to sunbathe at 1pm but it’s too hot in Sri Lanka when it’s not even 28 degrees (Celsius). Same as having an accent. It’s classy, sexy, completely understandable and acceptable when white people have accents but it’s unclear, strange and can’t understand when a coloured person has an accent. LMAO 🤣 I’m not racist but…… 😂
I can’t with the ignorance and the double standards!
@@SKGGG You need some serious chilling out, bro :)
Sri Lankan people are very humble and friendly I was there for a week and I love Sri Lanka ,❤️🇵🇰 from Pakistan
very much so! thank you for your support it means alot
We love you all from Sri Lanka
Don't burn people alive like you did to a Non Muslim Sri Lankan working in Pakistan. Don't try it here too. 🇱🇰♥️🇵🇰
Love to Pakistan from Sri Lanka 🇱🇰❤️🇵🇰

Srilankans are very respectable, good, humble, educated. Lot of respect from Pakistan 🇵🇰
Bro you deserve Millions views
I been in Sri Lanka in 2013 and as far as I know the Sri lankan people are very friendly I hope I can visit again in Sri Lanka
Greeting from iran ❤
thanks man yes they are very friendly
I visited Srilanka 2 months ago,
Awesome people, amazing country..
Kandy is a gem
Love from India ❤️
Sri Lanka looks so beautiful 😍 great video Harry keep up the hard work brother ✌️from 🏴
thanks man sri lanka is incredibly beautiful so far
Really impressive … How clean & litter free is Streets & Roads are. Love ❤️ from Overseas Pakistani 🇵🇰.
thanks for watching!
Sri Lanka has double the per capita income of its neighbours and is the richest in South Asia. That is why it is so developed infrastructure wise. It has a small population and literacy rate is similar to the Western world. Due to tropical climate, it is super green like Malaysia. It is a different league!! Currently it is going through some economy crisis because it highly depends on Tourism (pendemic & strict govt control). Things will go back to normal in couple of years. I will visit this year and follow your footstep.
this is really interesting to know! i have heard about the economic crisis and hopefully i can help boost tourism
Inashallah....
Maldives is the richest in South Asia
@@kalvin7269 True but Maldives is a micro island country with half a million population.
Well this didn't age well 😢😭 It's a hell hole here now
kandy is the last kingdom of Sri Lanka.The Temple of the Tooth is the palace of the last kingdom of Ceylon.The left tooth relic of Lord Buddha resides there.
wow such an awesome city , you must be very proud. Im excited to show you more!
The last kings of Sri Lanka were from South India. Not Singhaleses. They were of Nayak Telegu Malayali heritage. Dravidians.
thats all garbage. There's no real buddha tooth. but it helps extracting money from stupid tourists.
Ali aka biceptor was right. The hospitality is amazing. So friendly and helpful as well as super nice. They definitely appreciate the tourists they encounter. Tip away my friend, it's reward is deserved. A class.
so far ive been here over a week and not experienced one bad situation with a local, thanks for the advice!
Ali is like introducing new friend every week and all the Sri Lankans starts loving and watching them❤️🥰
yes thanks for watching it means alot!
It’s nice to tip the honest people and make someone’s days like you said, keep doing what your doing Harry 👍🙏
Thank you Benny, exactly and hopefully they pass on the gesture!
Touchè there Benny, I mean what is a small gesture like that, to another person could mean everything 🤝🏼
A realy nice first impression, Harry. Lovely people you met on the road.
The Sri lankan shirt suites you; blue is the right colour!!
Enjoy your stay in this lovely country. Stay safe.
Love from The Netherlands.
Glad you enjoyed it peter, thanks for watching i had a really good day
❤
Watching this on my lunch as normal! Sri Lanka 🇱🇰 looks amazing and so beautiful. It’s on my list of places I want to go in 2023. Be interesting to know how safe Asia is as a whole for a solo female traveller. May even vlog it, you’ve inspired me lol! Once again, great vlog Harry. ☺️
I love u hanna
i would say its safe but i think its best to ask a female traveller as obviously i may miss things as im male
@@harryjaggardtravel 😂
It's safe for tourists but not for locals 😂
There was a lady vlogger who did this a few years ago. She’s actually going all over the world solo. My advice is perhaps pair up with another traveller because while generally safe, there can be a few annoyances.
You’re with our man Ali Machan ❤️❤️
12:28 that notice said “No service will be done if you have headache, coughing,cold or sore throat”
21:56 🤣 “machan” means “Buddy” we normally don’t say machan to kids and elderly people. That’s why they didn’t reply you back
We love you Harry 🇱🇰❤️ waiting for more videos
thanks man very helpful! haha good thing i felt nornal then, ahh i see yes i will try not to call them machan
The Blue cricket shirt looks good on you also I think Sri Lanka locals are honest to the foreigners 😂
i agree !
in any country the poor is far more honest than the lousy rich
Thank you for taking us shopping, great city tour;
That T-shirt suits you well, I love your generosity;
I am surprised why their English is so good;
And why was Ali gone in the middle of the video, was he lost? 👍😂👌
謝謝帶我們去逛街,很棒的城市導覽;
那件 T-恤很適合你,我喜歡你的慷慨;
為何他們的英文都這麼好,我很意外;
還有為何 Ali 中間不見了,迷路了嗎?
ali went to get his bag fixed! it was my pleasure, and i was in a tourist area so they knew english here
@@harryjaggardtravel Thanks a lot for your reply, I see now. 👍😃👌
I think Mac's video is lagging behind yours again, am I right? maybe it's God's order.
You can find my comments on Mac's and Ali's videos later. Sorry, I am late today, one my friend who is TV star talked to me too long time.
Thank you to all of you for visiting Sri Lanka and doing these vlogs to promote our Island Nation. Do enjoy your stay and enjoy our hospitality. Please be careful of the occasional scams who may try to charge you extra because your a tourist.. but I am sure your aware being seasoned travelers. Have fun guys… God bless you all.🙏💐❤️
Love to see u in Sri Lanka , lots of love from 🇵🇰❤️ 🇱🇰
Great to see your comment from Pakistan brother. Yours is a country I like and admire very much.
I'm so proud to have three of my favorite UA-camrs, Luke, Mac and Harry, in my country.
we are so happy to be here Sirignana
@@harryjaggardtravel If you are coming to Galle come to our temple.
Believe it or not, this is the third time I got a notification Harry & Mac uploaded a new video at the same time lol. Awesome adventure. I'm loving it.
Welcome back! the legend Imran!
@Imran Yusof, yes, and most of the time videos are uploaded with the both of them in it at one place and they’re somewhere else……..lol. I believe at one point, one uploaded a video shown in Pakistan, while both were somewhere else, Columbia, SA and Lebanon. I believe Luke is there also, but his latest videos shown are from Pakistan still eating cheese paratha……..lol!
Great video. Your down-to-earth nature, mixing with local people is so good to see. This way you'd feel the pulse of every country you visit. Enjoy your stay in Sri Lanka. Take care and stay safe.
What you said was absolutely beautiful, you summed up Asia in a brilliant way. Glad you are happy and safe and great to see nice humble British lads like you mate.
Hello hello harry machan 😎🤙
HELLLOOOO SIRE
It's amazing you went to sri Lanka and joined Mac and Ali. Sri Lanka is a beautiful country. Enjoy your journey
You should visit once!

Harry I like your humility and willingness to explore. Like how you have something good to say regardless how things appear you keep it positive. Like how you go into local areas and markets and try to interact. You're a true gentleman for wanting to help that old man carry his stuff. That blue Sri Lanka top looks good on you!

Welcome to Sri Lanka! You are very friendly!
Thank you so much for visiting Sri Lanka 🇱🇰🤝❤❤👍
Glad you visited and enjoyed yourself there. I'm currently living in Romania since 2017. I really miss my hometown "Kandy". Keep up the great work!! All da best!!✊🙂
You are a very humble person. Love frm SL 🇱🇰
Hi Harry, I am enjoying watching you and the boys travelling around Sri Lanka. Re your visit to New England and your purchase of the North Face jacket. I was involved in the fashion industry in the UK for the first 20 years of my working life. This is how it goes, North Face would give a factory in Sri Lanka 10k metres of fabric to make 5k garments depending on how NF had worked out the costing of the garment. There would always be an allowance for faulty fabric and errors in production. Also the factories would lay, and cut the fabric in such a way to get approximately 5/10% extra garments. This, back in the days was called "cabbage" or over cuts. The factories were allowed to sell these on, providing the manufacturers tickets had been
cut out. Most of them turned up on market stalls or discount shops. So I believe that the jacket you purchased was a genuine jacket with purhaps a very minor fault, or maybe just an over cut. Still very good value for the money paid. There is always a chance of being a first copy, but there is no reason to cut the tickets on a copy.
I hope you find this information enlightening, enjoy your travels, I might just see you in India when it opens up again, my wife and I have been going there since 2007. Love the people, food and the country. Take care Peter and Sue. 🙏🏴🙏
Great shopkeepers! No looting tourists.
True that!
In india it's a different story altogether 🤣🤣🤣
I NEED A CHICKEN THIGH 🍗
Your friend also here in sir Lanka
YUMMY YUMMY SIRE
😂😂🤠
@@harryjaggardtravel I'm so excited for meet you your friends and make video together I like your Pakistan visit videos I'm your Pakistani subscriber .. wait for your next video yummy yummy yummy yummy yummy yummy yummy yummy yummy yummy yummy yummy yummy yummy yummy yummy yummy yummy yummy yummy yummy yummy yummy yummy
What a warm welcome from Sri Lanka peeps glad you enjoy it
So nice Cherayle!
3:15, The crop is paddy my friends. Those are rice fields not wheat. Enjoy your stay in beautiful Sri Lanka.
Ali the great looks so familiar with busy streets in Sri Lanka right 😄 ❤ anyways a great video about your first impressions about our little Island . Actually 500/- was a good deal with the Tuk-Tuk 😊 Thanks Harry for the lovely time
Yes! Thank you Prabod!
Keep on tipping if you want to man! It helps these guys a lot and for us "western" people it doesn't really matter that much you know
Rs1000-1500 for a t-shirt from a roadside small shop like this is a good deal. Anything more than that would be a rip-off.
We Sri lankans love❤️ and respect to England 🇱🇰 💪🇬🇧🤝
Not really.we were colonized by the British.I really doubt the respect part!
We did not know that our country is so beautiful
🥰😘
Thank you so much visiting our country during the economic crisis
🖤
We warmly and respectfully request you to visit our country once again
Very kind of you man 😊
Thank you kindly
If God wills I want to visit Sri Lanka,
It's on my bucket list and also buy Sri Lankan flag from Sri Lanka one of my priorities.
Love from India 🇮🇳
U always welcome brother ❤
You are very humble and genuine.love from srilanka
That was instant .... very humble of you to have extended help to the man carrying some load. Blessings alvez
See so many people coming to Sri Lanka and showing the country to the world. Stay safe and have a lovely time in Sri Lanka
"Organized chaos" that's the most accurate definition that i have heard about Asia😂😂 facts
And you are so cool bro love ur accent amd the way you pronounce sinhalese phrases. Love that "stuti machaan"😂 hope you enjoyed here and wish you a great future ahead
thanks devin haha you are very kind!
I like your generosity it is very good for you and them, American living in Thailand❤
thanks yes i agree, everyone wins
Great job Harry! Wouldn’t be the same without you and all the other guys there! Welcome to Ali as well, just been over and subscribed to his channel as well.
Sri Lanka looks amazing as well. I’m sure it’ll have similarities with Pakistan as well and you’ll pick up Sinhalese in no time at all. You did amazing with Urdu and Spanish 👍 Enjoy it Harry!
Thanks Omar for the loyal support, yes i think Sinhalese is the hardest ive learnt so far as its hard to pronounce but ill work on it
@@harryjaggardtravel No worries, my pleasure. It’ll happen, I think you have a natural flair and intuition for languages. Plus you work v hard! 😊✌️
Nice to see you talking to locals and enjoying your walk. Stay safe
Sri Lanka's economy is down ... your arrival is a great strength to us ... you are doing a beautiful program ... keep up the good work friends ...
i hope i can promote tourism! thanks doe watchinf chaminda!
good content fam. Got yoself a new subscriber
im from sri lanka i love your vlogs thank you 😍🥰
Appreciate much for helping👍👍💞💞
I love the shocked expression on your face when you find out the price of a cricket team shirt is too high. I am a new subscriber of your UA-cam channel. Peace ✌️
*Hey harry Love From India Bro*
36:06 Luke is chilling in srilanka but uploading videos of Pakistan series. 😂
Enjoy your stay ! Love from Sri Lanka
The only people that would complain about tipping are those that are too cheap to tip themselves.
good point
Thx u guys perfect jobs
Love u
🙏🏻❤️🇱🇰💯🍁
astuti machan!
あら日本🇯🇵語うまいねー😋
Great Machn 👍❤️🔥
Thanks Machan 🔥
Enjoy yourself Harry 🙌🏼
Happy Valentine’s Day to my fav vlogger 😍
Looks beautiful and peaceful place...greenery i love it
I would rather use the word "inexpensive" as opposed to "cheap." A dollar may go a long way there, but for locals same deal might not be that affordable given socioeconomic conditions. So, I would be mindful of local audience. Anyway, that rich blue color shirt is gorgeous, and for some reason that deep blue color makes Harry complexion look brightened up a little. Or so, I think.
very good point, ill keep it in mind. thanks alot i appreciate the criticism and kind words always
Kandy looks a great place, green and clean. I loved the ambience of the city. People are also very nice. And don't be sorry for comparing SL and Pakistani food, I love it. When you go to India, you will also find the same food there too. Asian food is a common heritage of the region. Samosa, roti, paratha, biryani, chai, you will find em everywhere :)
Compared to India I found people in Pakistan more friendly.
yes for sure there’s definitely some cross overs with these countries especially with the food, i was surprised how much spicier the food was in sri lanka though! thanks for watching
@@harryjaggardtravel yup sri Lanka and south india
Its hot spices heaven
You've gotta big heart Harry ❤
Love your content 🔥🔥👍❤️ Amazing videos 🔥🔥
Hey ! Enjoy the paradise island ! Have to say you got good deals with all your shopping ! From tuk tuk to the T shirt and to the trouser ! Hats off to the sellers for being genuine and giving it at the local prices !!!!
Thanks for spreading LOVE ❤️
Thank you so much for visiting Sri Lanka. We invite you to come back to our country and experience this beauty.
Guys you guys are so inspiring 💗, keep buying from local and speaking with them in English it will open their eyes for whole world 🌎
Hey Harry love watching your videos bro... just to remind you If you wanna learn more about buddhism and the pure buddhist teachings there is a place called 'Meth bo sewana meditation center' in ahangama, galle.. I have visited that place and it was soo awesome and you can get an idea about the spiritual side of the life and how you can apply buddhist teachings to your life.. Also Ahangama itself really beautiful.. cool beaches and soo many things to do.. Make sure you check that place out if you are planning on visiting galle.. cheer Brother🙏
oh wow im 100% doing this thanks alot for the recommendations
Thankx for travelling in Sri Lanka 🇱🇰... I'm from Sri Lanka ❤❤ If you like to travel in Sri lanka.. there are so many beautiful places in my country. Nuwara Eliya, Anuradhapura, Galle are some wonderful places in my country. And thanks for the video again...🇱🇰🇱🇰❤❤
thanks for the tips!
subscribed asoon as he tipped that dude
fair play Harry boy
Harry, Alli the man seems not has taught you that saying 'Machan' to anybody is to be avoided since it sounds pritty odd. It is a word used among friends who are perticularly young. Still you can use the word to those who are at around your age.( Machan= Massina= Brother in law [the meaning proper] Machan=Frind[More colloquial] )
I thought it was for best friend. it actual word should be my charm, became machan. I am not sure about it.
love from sri lanka bro
Harry very nice video!
I like your way, have a nice time in Sri Lanka 🇱🇰
Love from 🇱🇰❤️
Great vids Harry, really enjoying this SRi lanka vlogs.
hahah 14:49 is funny he thought you were haggling and the salesman lowered the price.
That was paddy field. Welcome to srilanka also to ancient city Kandy.
its a very nice of you too Ali and harry. what is giving you will not loose what is not giving you will loose. you both are very good heart gentlements. May God bless you too
I like your Asian vlogs...they're giving me a more in-depth appreciation of Asian food and cultures. So much similarities with those in the Phil.
You are very hansome that sri lankan t shirt
thank you 🙏
Hey In 29:03 You said you wanted to learn about Buddhism,😄
And for that you can visit to the temple of the tooth relic with your friends and definitely you guys can learned about buddhism and others 🤗
thanks ill check it out 100%
Welcome to sri lanka brother 🇱🇰🇱🇰🇱🇰. when entering the temple, everyone is wearing white cloths. Its normal in sri lanka and It's like a ritual. We believe that its very simple and it shows the peace. Simply whites cloths are sign of peace. Thats why everyone weares the white cloths when entering the temple. I hope this will help you a lot.
thanks for the comment! that makes alot of sense, ah yes i knew it was for peace but did not put 2 +2 together, awesome!
I’m very glad to see you bro 😎 welcome to Sri Lanka 🇱🇰 good luck 👍
Hey Harry, You and your V-logs are so Nice & Attractive. Try to visit Nuwara-Eliya, Anuradhapura, Galle & Hikkaduwa while you are in Sri Lanka. Finally, Thanks for choosing Sri Lanka as a travel destination and showing the World what really Sri Lanka is. Your V-logs will definitely help future guests, our people (Sri Lankans), and our economy. Have a Safe & a Memorable Vacation. Cheers...👍
Thank you visit srilanka anjoy ❤️👍👌🇱🇰
GREAT VIDEO- BEST WISHES FROM SRI LANKAN
"Suba udesanak" (good morning) is a formal way to greet another person, and more often used by tv presenters. If you want to sound more like a native sinhalese speaker, you can simply ask "kohomada" (how are you?).
thanks ill do this
