NUWARA ELIYA // the perfect stop on the Kandy to Ella train 🚂
Episode 50 - Nuwara Eliya, Sri Lanka
There we were, cruising along on the famous Kandy to Ella train, as we twisted and turned through the gorgeous Sri Lanka countryside - we stopped at one of the most beautiful places we've ever been.
Nuwara Eliya, also known as 'Little England' (due to it's grey weather and British architecture) had so much in store for us: hiking to the Great World's End Drop, delicious high tea at a fancy hotel, so many adorable stray puppies and the famous plantations of Ceylon tea.
We absolutely LOVED IT here (mainly for the puppies)
Enjoy! Mike and Steph x

Hi, we're Mike & Steph. In 2021, we quit our jobs, bought a camera, and set off to go travelling! We created this channel to keep a video travel diary for ourselves, share our adventures with friends and family, and hopefully inspire people to see the world as it begins to open up again.
We upload videos every weekend (and also occasional cheeky Wednesdays). If you enjoy our stuff, feel free to help us defeat the almighty youtube algorithm by doing all that like, comment + subscribe stuff. We appreciate it and love hearing from you :)

Bit of advice. There are stray dogs in most places in SL and not vaccinated for rabies. So it’s better avoid touching them.

HOLY SHIT yall are flying in subs!!!!!! Congrats yall 🥳 I love how green it is here - and that hotel is definitely the most beautiful - and its obviously the best because of the PUPPIES

There they are!! Honestly it’s a bit ridiculous isn’t it. If you guys want to grow apparently the answer is come to Sri Lanka where you’ll find the kindest, most supportive and incredibly algorithm-aware people around. So green and beautiful, but the puppies are probs highlight of all travels 😎😎😎
Thank you visit our country 🇱🇰💗
Your vlogs are so wonderful. The perspective you guys show is highly admired. You always share the beauty and enjoyable side rather than dwelling on shortcomings and inconveniences. It's fun to see you two lovebirds mingle around. Can't wait to see the next one. Have an amazing time in Sri Lanka.

I still remember how I'd walked almost 11,500 footsteps from the entrance to the World's End and across the hortain plains. It was just incredible, and you guys made it too. Always the best presentation from Steph, and yes, she is famous. She's been great throughout these wonderful travel logs. I wish you'd never leave my country. Be safe!

I’m glad to see that your Sri Lanka series has many views and comments. The world is noticing how delightful you guys are ☺️ Mike - love your admiring comments and shot/music choices. Worlds end was a cliffhanger! What an adventure you had that day. Why is it called world’s end? Interesting British influence in the village, posh! Loved the mix of environments in this area of Sri Lanka. Puppy tails!!!!

Amazing part of Sri Lanka, we loved nuwara eliya and the British vibes ☺️ and the puppies were the best part, so cute!!
