It is better to go jaffna by train. There are lot of ancient ruins in anuradhapura, if you are not interested, go straight to jaffna. Try goat milk from jaffna. Super delicious. And rio ice cream. Also go to a hindu kovil. Try their food. Specially dosa (those), string hoppers (indiyappam). They have super delicious curry. Vegetarian shops are there. They have a unique taste when comparing to the other areas in sri lanka

Good that the local bus departs on time. The man who comes around to collect fares is called a bus conductor. I missed travelling in local buses. Anyway, thanks for sharing with us the interesting journey from Galle to Colombo.

Wow, Ken you must be very popular in Sri Lanka now. When you commented about the possibility of leaving Sri Lanka due to the long hours of power cuts, it became hot news and reported in several newspapers in Sri Lanka. Congrats, I think you must be one of the most popular foreign youtubers in Sri Lanka right now. 👏👏👏Fully agree that it is very dishonest of the tuk tuk driver to deliberately take a longer route to reach your hotel with the motive of charging you a higher fare. Great to know that you have decided to remain in Sri Lanka until the your visa end. Looking forward to your coming trip to Northern Sri Lanka. Remembered Northern Sri Lanka is interesting when I watched food review channels in the past. I am sure the locals will be able to recommend to you the interesting places to visit. I saw some comments about Tamil New Year, that is usually on either 13 or 14 April every year, I think there will be some celebration over there.

Hi Ken, If you can, stay in sri lanka till 14th Apr. Because we celebrate Sinhala and Tamil New year on 13th and 14th Apr. You can taste unique foods, unique cultural events in these days. Northern province is good place to stay in new year time rather than southern. They have nice hospitality and few unique and beautiful items. Wish you all the very best!

Well, @6:14 the Sri Lankans, and South Asians in general, have this tendency to blow anything negative about their countries out of proportions while pushing down anything positive if something doesn’t align with their culture or political opinions. This is what had happens here. There are lots of tourists, including you, who said good things about Sri Lanka but lots of people in and outside of the country who are Sri Lankans blowing things out of proportions based on which side of the equation they support. Don't take any of these news media seriously. :)

Amazed that your story ended up on some international newspapers whether you said you intended to leave Sri Lanka or were just considering it due to the power cuts. What were they reporting? Wondering how it is even newsworthy? Maybe I am wrong Ken but that has to be sensational exposure for you and your channel in attracting more subscribers. Before you know it you will be up to 100K of them. As usual an enjoyable vlog and, yes, thumbs up from me for including these trips. They provide continuity in your travels.

Hi Ken, You could have chosen Highway bus when you travled to Colombo from Galle. Cost is same and the traveling time is about 1 hour. If you are planing to go Jaffna, there are two traveling methods you could select. 1. Train - There are couple of luxury trains departing from Mount Lavinia and Colombo Fort every day. Traveling time would be about 8 hours. 2. Bus - There are lot of Super luxury buses departing from Wellawatte/Colombo to Jaffna every night. Traveling time would be about 8 hours. Even day time you could find few of them. However don't use normal buses as it takes lot of time and the drive will be uncomfortable too. If you have time, try to go to Polonnaruwa which is one of our ancient cities. Cheers. 🇱🇰🇱🇰

Do not leave Sri Lanka before visiting Polonnaruwa, Anuradapura, Ritigala, Dambulla, Sigiriya and Wilpattu national park. If you have time, also visit Arugam Bay, Pasikuda, Kumana & Lahugala national parks in East coast. Train ride to Baticalow will get you there. Not many tourists go there. All these places can be easily covered by train. Just google the railway map of Sri Lanka. You can book tickets online now.

Hi Ken Have been enjoying your videos and always looking forward to the next ones. By all means take the Intercity express train to Jaffna if available for its the most convenient and fastest way to travel.Your schedule permitting it may be worthwhile if you could make an intermediate stop at Anuradhapura for at least 2 days before continuing onwards to Jaffna. You certainly would find Jaffna much different to rest of the country with its unique culture Enjoy your rest of the stay in our country and hopefully you will carry pleasant memories of Sri Lanka and its people Cheers

Hi Ken, I want to make you aware of something important. If you continue to work online in the next few days, I do not think you should leave Colombo. Because Colombo is the area with the least power cuts. Therefore, you may be embarrassed to go to the North without being aware of this. To the best of my knowledge, the area has been affected by power cuts for a longer period than Colombo. but it's up to you, be careful. Thank you for visiting my country again and again. The service rendered by you during this period may not have even been done by our Minister of Tourism. You are the one who deserves the award. Thanks in Advance.

I would not worry about being overcharged in buses. Public transport here is highly regulated. The only place I would worry about being overcharged would be Tuk Tuks, safari jeeps, an occasional vendor that caters to tourists. Even locals worry about being overcharged by these folks. The Key is to ask for prices from 3 people when you are dealing with them.

Ice cream soda was popular in Malaysia decades ago. Used to be clear. Now less popular - probably because not promoted. Maybe the driver tried to go further !

Ken please check negembo , kalpana area there are beautiful beaches and you can see dolphins and enjoy different types of enjoyable things. Not much touristic area. But I think you'll be really happy to experience that area as well. Extremely beautiful and not much KZbinrs have been there so it will a good experience. ( North western of Sri Lanka)

When you go to Jaffna, make sure to try Peanut biscuits cookies. you can only find it there and it's really tasty especially if you're a peanut fan. Also 'The Thinnai' is a good hotel that we stayed at and I can recommend it. For good food 'Lavin's Vegetarian Family Restaurant' is a good place and also do try out Rio Ice cream. it is a must

Hi Ken 👋🏻 another pleasant and friendly taxi driver 👍 I love travelling by bus too when the bus route sometime passing through some villages or rural area and even pass by the coastal road , there's so much to see 🤣 furthermore it's comfortable with air condition 👍 the bus fare was cheap. Yeay , you have to be careful , luckily that you asked the tuk-tuk for the charges ? The second guy had his tactics not sure if he did that on purpose but you're faster and smarter 👍👍 nice hotel but slightly expensive for a small room and no coffeehouse , anyway hope you have a good rest and keep us posted 👍🥰
