      Sri Lanka has strict regulations regarding sewerage disposal. The water smell on that lake is during dryer months lack of fresh water with less oxygen creates the smell. But they are installing a pumping station that will pump water during dryer months. No sewage is released as you may see it's full of water birds and fish

    Human 💩 in Colombo?! I have never seen that in Colombo in my 20+ years of life there. It’s either racially motivated, based on India, or you must be from SF or LA where it’s pretty normal to see human 💩 on the streets. I think it’s probably a dog given Colombo’s stray dog population.
    Another thing I noticed is that you keep calling everything cheap right in front of the vendors. It’s very inconsiderate towards the locals because it’s not cheap for them. Furthermore, the term “cheap” usually connotes low quality rather than good value.
    Imagine how a vendor feels when every third foreigner they serve calls their products cheap! How many times do they need to hear about the cheapness of their food before they consider raising their prices? And then you complain when they raise prices for foreigners.
    If you really want to go there, it would be better to use a less condescending word like “affordable”.

    The Beire Lake smell during dry months is not due to sewage but with less fresh water flowing in the oxygen supply is low, bacteria break down the waste at the bottom of the pond or lake. As a result of this decomposition process, the water develops carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide. Once the weather gets warmer in the spring, the warm air rises and produces an unpleasant smell.

    Welcome to my motherland guys. Few seconds into the video I realized it was a Sunday looking at the streets. On weekdays it’s busier, but not as crowded as other countries in our region. About the train ride, getting together with some strangers and starting to sing is quite common here. We try to make the most out of what we have. You were very kind about the beggars. However I would suggest you not to encourage that unless they try to sell something and make a living. Some of them are more than capable of working, and some are on government benefits and some are led by the under world. The actual beggar gets a bare minimum daily wage and the rest goes to the leaders.. This is the sad truth.. 😢😢😢
    I wish you two a pleasant, safe and a memorable journey. Much love 💕
