    Sri Lanka is clean, safe, any climate in 3 hours and the people are laid back and super kind.

    I too preferred Sri Lanka actually in terms of cleanliness and good beaches beyond Colombo

    @5:32 It was Portugees who came first and then they got kicked out by the Dutch and then Dutch got kicked out by the Brits.

    That is definitely not the biggest Buddha statue in Sri Lanka, the biggest one is in Mathugama

    It was the Portuguese who invaded first and defeated by the Dutch and the British kicked out the Dutch, so please correct it

    Welcome to Sri Lanka. Hope you enjoy your stay more and more, as you explore the country further. Just FYI, the "Slave Island" refers to the place the Portuguese kept their slaves they brought from from Africa. Sri Lankans were never enslaved by anyone.

      I didn't say the Sri Lankans were enslaved. I did go into more details, but cut it out as the video was getting too long.

    “The idea that drinking cold water in hot weather heats you up more is actually a misconception; in most situations, drinking cold water in hot weather helps cool you down by providing a rapid heat transfer from your body to the cold liquid, triggering sweating which further cools you through evaporation, even though the initial sensation might feel slightly warming in your stomach.”

      Cinnamon Suites apartments. Not sure the cost in local currency, but I am sure you could work it out.
