this island. Whilst cycling our way from the east coast of Sri Lanka to the South Coast we checked in to Jetwing Kaduruketha a Unique resort found in Wellawaya which is such an underrated tourist destination in Sri Lanka

I have been following you guys for a long time, I live in Ghana, west Africa,when I was a kid my parents where based in Colombo it was a long time ago,as the country was called Ceylon then, we brought some king coconuts back with us to Ghana and have planted many here which are thriving. I hope to visit your beautiful country again.
You are welcome 🙏
You are welcome
You are welcome low budget my house
Love your videos, Sheneller. You have a fantastic on camera presence and excellent storytelling ability. I really admire the curiosity you have for your home country and your dedication to showcasing all of Sri Lanka's hidden beauties, despite the difficult times there. Also think it's really cool the way you and your partner are able to explore the world together and work as a team, even though I'm sure it's not always easy. Planning to visit Sri Lanka next year!
Great video you guys! I'm a country girl too. Love everything Sri Lanka has to offer ❤ Indeed a Pearl of the Indian Ocean
This has got to be my favourite vlog from the cycling series! I truly felt like it captured the beauty and aesthetic of the traditional way of living, and you explained the history and facts so so well. Can't wait for the rest of the vlogs!
Fantastic clip, no words tell you how wonderful is Srilanka. Very proud you guys what you’ll are doing, God bless you both throughout the journey, also in Your relationship ❤❤❤
Very valuable job doing. No words to express. Only thing I can do is thank you both. You describe grab our attention... all my family witching your videos. We ate with you guys. God bless you both.
blown away at 8:18, jaw dropped at the amazing scenery here !
This recalled my memory of two days stay at Jetwing Kaduruketha.I will never forget that experience ,food and their unique hospitality.Thanks guys for doing this beautiful video.
I'm sure, the words i know will not do the justice in expressing what i feel. This cycling series is the best so far. By each episode, it only makes us more and more excited for what comes in next. May you two blessed with the best as always. ❤❤❤
Awesome video. Keep up the good work of educating us while showing off the beauty of Sri Lanka. Thank you!
The Pottuvil to Monaragal cycling path is beautifully captured by the cameraman, and interacting with some subscribers were giving a boost to travel in a light-hearted manner.
The Kaduruketha Jetwing eco-friendly resort is so thrilling to stay in a village world atmosphere. The Uma Oya dam and its surroundings captured by the drone shots are spectacular to watch. The kurakkan pudding is a nice thought for the day. But it's too high priced in Colombo and randomly available.
Organic farming is suitable for the individual farmer to grow the paddy for his family to cater, but not enough for the whole people of Srilanka.
Thank you for the detailed organic way farming though not possible for mass cultivation to cater the 22milliin people.
Loved the experience at Jetwing Kaduruketha...very friendly staff and awesome food!
We agree!
impressive travels and your sharing of a very interesting local experience. Continue your journey in safety.
Production quality is amazing!
Thanks a lot!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Just Fantastic nostalgic island Sri Lanka..everyone should visit once this paradise
What a beautifully insightful episode ❤
Thank you! So glad to hear you enjoyed it. 🙏🏼
Underrated traveling Chanel 😍
Again. You did a excellent Video and the best explanation about this trip. Dearest Sheneller, I love the way you explain, I love the way you explain... " Your explanation is Picture perfect ". Specially. Jetwings Hotels are so Romantic and such a special. Love and Greeting from Germany.
Your effort in producing a great video is remarkable. More like a documentary. And your perspective as city kids adds heaps of value to the content. Because your exploration of rural life and nature is closer to what a foreigner might feel in the journey. I wish the authorities identify the value and promote your channel alongside other tourism promotions. Best wishes to reach the heights you deserve ❤
What a beautiful journey you guys taking us through this video. Thumbs up All the very best.
Hats off for your thinking on organic food.

nice place allewala waterfall
A lot of things can do?
We respect you shenella
Cool channel
I AGAIN AGAIN TELLING YOU YOUR SMILE AWESOME😄😄😄
At 14:54 what you say about rice made me cry. We have been made poor by politicians going cap in hand to imf when the imf should be coming to sri lanka to beg for different rice.
So beautiful 😍
Safe travels guys , don’t forget the sunblock 🧴
Another fantastic episode of your beautiful country absolutely gorgeous. But as usual spoilt by subtle advertising of a hotel chain. It would have been much better to have spend some time in an authentic village for visitors to feel the genuine hospitality of your wonderful countrymen.
Thanks a lot! as you might have realised this is our fulltime profession. untill our youtube channel is large enough to cover our costs of production. we do have to work with other brands to make this model viable.
Additionally there are quite a lot of people who look for hotel experiences on this platform. as always we try to strike a healthy balance.
@@Sheneller thanks for taking your time from your hectic schedule to clarify. There is absolutely no harm in promoting another brand but be up front so that the viewers can judge for themselves. Give the viewers the pros cons of the places where you stay n not limit it it to the way side joints you stay to charge your batteries. I am believer of the good work that you and your peers do n as avid travellers take their word when booking airlines, hotels of course train tickets when touring. Good luck.

I have watched so many international bikepackers vlogs and enjoyed how they would experience their cycling with wayside camping in forests and deserts at nights. Most of them enjoy minimalist travels But your bikepacking is highly expensive! You often camp at expensive resorts and hotels by promoting such places!
❤️❤️❤️
how did you guys survive the buses that run cars so fast and furious
At 4:24 what was the joint bow sort of thing ❤
It’s to have less wind resistance and get more speed/distance.
@@Sheneller great stuff 🙌🏼 ❤️
I see many stray dogs. Who feeds them?
👌👌😍
Talk about organic food and traditional practices etc. is good,
BUT these things should start doing by self, than just to have talk and expect others to do it.
🥰🥰🥰
