Good evening from Galle, southwest coast of Sri Lanka. Yes, Sri Lanka is much less hectic compared to India. Have a good day🙂🙏😊

8:40 Yes brother, In Sri Lanka 11-15% of the total population are Tamils and 75% of the population are the native Sinhalese who speak Sinhala language. Both Tamils and the Moors speak in Tamil language. The reason is both of them (most Moors) came from India as traders, slaves, invaders, and by marriages and most Tamils were brought here by the British as slaves to get their works done because the Sinhala people refused to work for outsiders. After the independent few left the country and most of them stayed here since their living conditions were far better than their native countries. Moors and Tamils are awesome people to have in a country. We are glad to have them because they are very peaceful. ❤ 🎉 🇱🇰 ❤ 🇱🇦 And finally you are very welcome brother! Many years ago I learned about your country at school and have watched wonderful documentaries. It's a beautiful country and hope to visit someday... 🙏

It was fun. I was inside the shelter for nearly an hour. Enjoy watching the two girls dancing in the rain. When the storm got stronger I ran to a taxi who took me back to the hostel🙂

1000 to 2500 and you still not consider that as a scam. What a kindhearted you are! 😍

Hi Nat, I really enjoyed the video as always. I enjoyed seeing the temples and other sites. It's good to get a complete view of somewhere including the not so good sides. The taxi thing unfortunately gives a bad impression of Sri Lanka. Personally I find that kind of thing very rude and annoying and don't know if I could have stayed as polite as you did. As you said they need to work and as a foreigner there I guess they assume you have money. Luckily you found the app after. Looking forward to the next video

Thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed the video. It was a bit annoying trying to deal with the driver but in the end I've just paid what he asked for but less hehe. Just to get out of there. Now with the app is so easy

more than half of sri lankan population can speak english properly, 77%-82% sri lankans can manage a conversation in english even tho it has some grammar errors, so its easy to travel there, even older people know english , but young generations can speak it very well as english is a compulsory language in schools and its the only language that use in many courses in all universities
