    Your vlogs are far different from other videos. U guys are so local. U know what !! Being so local is the best way to get to know the place we are in. Like, eating a pol sambol in a five star hotel may feels good and tasty but it is no match for eating it in a local villagers whice homemade. Same thing but a huge difference.

    Trincomalee is special and your hotel looks lovely, a nice place to chill. I'm sure the hotels with pools would let you swim for the price of a drink if the sea is too rough. Eat and sleep well with the sound of the waves.

    Trincomalee is famous for its deep, sapphire-blue harbour and its powdery beaches . The harbour was used as a trading port throughout the Anuradhapura and Polonnaruwa periods and was later the focus of battles during the colonial period when succeeding European nations vied for control of the island. When it was the turn of the British to colonise the island, then known as Ceylon, the Royal Navy established a naval base at Trincomalee, which was later attacked by Japanese fighter pilots during World War II.
    I'm wondering if you went to pigeon island national park to see turtles swimming in the coral reefs and on a whale watching trip .
    The Sri Lanka Transport Board, the state-run, primary bus operator in Sri Lanka, goes back to 1 January 1958. The state-owned enterprise was at the time known as the Ceylon Transport Board. At its peak, it was the largest omnibus company in the world - with about 7,000 buses and over 50,000 employees. With privatization in 1979, it underwent a period of decline. First broken up into several regional boards, then into several companies, it was finally reconstituted as the Sri Lanka Transport Board in 2005.
    The bus drivers are some of the craziest in the world so it seems you were lucky .I think the guy selling the gold chain with the cross was telling everyone that if they were wearing these crosses if the bus crashed, they wouldn't die ...haha, which is why he sold so many .. 😂😂

    If a cab driver was annoying me by following me around, the last thing I would do is give him my custom so that he could annoy me even further. The best thing you could have done was to hail another cab right in front of him, so that he could ponder on the error of his ways.

    • @EllisWR

      You are correct! We we're just so curious about his strange behaviour it enticed us.
      Maybe after dealing with us he won't act the way he did anymore with people.

    in the UK you would pay for this ride over £10 without a single question and here you just paid £1.30 and reacted as if you scammed £100 or something. chill bro in Sri Lanka mostly you have been charged local prices compared to other county. plus this is not a scam. the driver told you his price and you told him your price finally he accepted your price. It's done stop overreacting bro

      You clearly did not watch the video.
      The man followed us around town after we said no 7 times. He then waited outside while we ate without us asking.
      We gave him a chance, agreed on 500 for the 3km which was already 100 more than usual fare.
      He stopped and asked for 1500 lol. I ain't a mug he can scam someone else.
      In other countries we get charged local prices yes, as you see here he tried to lie to us and in turn damaging your countries reputation...

Please Don't take our people's warm kind hospitality as a weakness..
