[@kasunrodrigo6592]

Hi Josie I wish I had the chance to meet you two...to thank you for such wonderful content I'm sure the entire srilankans are grateful for your lovely comments.... Wish you two all the very best god bless.....

[@natomember]

Hi Josie, It was breadfruit what you saw at the street vendor. It's not really consumed as a fruit but rather cooked and consumed and it has a unique texture and a lovely taste to it. We Islanders love it.

[@Its_abadon_00016]

Haircut video please

[@josieliftsthings]

@@danusams Did you even watch the whole video? I literally didn’t want comfort and relaxation. That’s literally the opposite of what I was upset about. I ended up on a train with less selfish tourists and loved it. If you can’t watch a video properly, please refrain from embarrassing yourself. If you’re going to copy and paste your rude comment over and over on my channel I’ll copy and paste my answer.

[@tuanputrajurangpati3240]

noooo waaayyyyy !!!! Is this the last ?? Why,, i was expecting more. Well, i must say i love your videos about our country and how you presented it. Both you and your lovely hubby are amazing. Hope you enjoed your stay in sri lanka. And so when you guys hoping to come back ?

I traveled from Ella to Kandy 3 weeks ago in the second class. It was really fun and wonderful. It was a one of the best journeys I ever had. My compartment was a very funny place. Many people were singing and dancing & also they were very friendly. They always shared some of their different types of food which they brought from home. Honestly this journey is very very fun.

[@arrukkikrina2755]

สวัสดีชาวศรีลังกาทุกๆคน ประเทศคุณมีธรรมชาติที่ยอดเยี่ยมจริงๆ

[@josieliftsthings]

It does! 😁☺️🥰

[@Films_Books._Vlogs]

3 weeks ago we did the train ride from Kandy to Ella and (I thought it was third class but maybe 2nd) but it was a great ride, we found seats and the windows opened, passengers were singing, it was great. Definitely a lot to be said for 2nd or 3rd class but it does depend on the luck of getting seats. I did first class between Galle and Colombo and it was so sealed off, I couldn't experience it like I did in third class years before.

[@josieliftsthings]

Totally - the second train in this video was open windows and happy, friendly locals - it was 100x better for that reason!

[@Bhavendrawijebandara]

[@lawa]

32:48 That's a really cute piece of chat ❤ PS: This is one of the best endings for a video series. It's truly heartwarming to hear such great and positive things about Sri Lanka and its people from you. And you are always welcome to visit Sri Lanka again and again. Goodbye, guys...

[@karlanorvell9573]

I was last in Sri Lanka 30 years ago. Believe me, there was no air con in 1st class and the trains were not that modern. It was definitely a very different experience from the age of the trains to the number of tourists. I was typically the only American or Westerner everywhere I went other than Colombo. I am glad I travelled there before Western tourism grew so much. But it is a gorgeous country and the people are so friendly.

[@rowguppy9927]

Bro idk what train you took maybe you mistook 3rd class for 1st been taking the train for more then 15 years mostly 1st class it's always like this

[@Jaylio]

@@rowguppy9927he said 30 years ago not 15

[@rowguppy9927]

Yea guess I was wrong

[@julieanddaniel]

🤣🤣 We had the same experience at the tower! absolutely crazy! really enjoyed watching this 🤗

[@tuanputrajurangpati3240]

You guys watching this too. Well sorry still i didn''t watch yours. Just now i subscribed for yours and i will start watching yours too ❤

[@mynewdirectcars1841]

31:29 That’s Bread Fruit in Sinhalese called “Dhel” which is cooked in my ways. Looks like the jackfruit without the obvious spiked skin. Makes very nice curry that the bread fruit chunks melts in your mouth. Actually you can find them fresh here in Australia as well. Usually bought by us Sri Lankans and other islanders in Australia. People in Sri Lanka might struggle coming up with the name but you should give it a good if you are ever served a “Dhel” dish.

[@ekanderfamily]

I love your videos. They really inspire me to travel more.

[@josieliftsthings]

This makes me so happy! 🥹🥹

[@ekanderfamily]

@@josieliftsthings next trip for me and my wife is Vietnam. We are thinking four weeks. Do you think that would be ok or do we need a longer stay?

[@josieliftsthings]

Four weeks is great! You’ll be able to see so much. It’s a very diverse country that I wish I saw more of when I went!

[@Jessicaaaaaaaa]

I’m glad you had that experience at the end! It seems like the locals of Sri Lanka saved the day, they seem so friendly 😃😃

[@punarawijayasundara1569]

If you come again, I wanna make some suggestions, 1. Kitulgala water rafting and adventures 2. Panama(පානම) beach - the area I visited literally have zero tourists so you'll need a local who know about the area but the sea is so beautiful and clean 3. For a beautiful sun set I would recommend Rajanganaya dam - I went there April last year, coincidentally. And it was the day before full moon So I got to see the most beautiful sunset and the moonrise I've seen in my whole life. That was SO mesmerizing that I felt like I was in a pinterest wallpaper there's a lot more but I think this is enough😅 Be safe where ever you go next❤ LOVE FROM SRI LANKA🇱🇰❤

[@yasiru7465]

We need more of Sri Lankan vlogs! You guys are amazing

[@Sanjaya619]

Ohhh 😔 Sri Lankan series over... We need more from Sri Lanka!

[@SLboi]

Sri Lanka is a beautiful country! Enjoy it, explore, get lost in the adventures! Try doing a cooking culinary experience at one of the famous hotels in Sri Lanka, Cinnamon Lodge Habarana

[@user-or7il8np8u]

39:09 charging ports are under the seats🙂

[@ws1814]

Actually the clouds made the tower look sorta magical. ❤

[@yellowmellow7640]

The green fruit is called bread fruit. In srilanka we call it "dhel". We cook it as a curry to have with rice or u can fry it and toss it with srilankan treacle (honey) and have it as a sweet to snack on

[@iridipdeuri]

I am not scared of the heights but just worried about the width of the stairs 😉 lovely vlog ...hopefully will visit SL oneday..Stuti

[@wheres.michael]

One of the best endings to a video yet! ❤

[@josieliftsthings]

Thank you, I thought you would like it 😂😂😁😁🙏🏻

[@samandnick]

Great video! We want to go to Sri Lanka so badly!

[@christinalaw7006]

My stomach churned as you climbed up that tower! Sooo scary, I was petrified just watching! Good on you for getting to the top. Great video.

[@SisiraDevundarage]

Hi Josie The blue train have charger plug in sockets under the seats.The train route from Kandy to Ella is a single track form and that means two trains going opposite direction can only cross each other in stations that are with loop line.The king coconut taste varies.Younger ones are with little bit salty taste and more matured ones are on more sweeter side.Enjoy your Sri Lankan tour and please visit again

[@wottarotta.]

Hi Josie, Ive been watching since your first Thailand videos. I went back and watched some of your old Thai vid's recently and noticed how much your production and editing has improved. No wonder you're closing in on a million subs. Hope you're coming back to Thailand soon

[@nuwanmie_hirunima9809]

some tips for your next visit: if you want to get a tuk tuk there are ones that says taxi with like LED lights they have a fixed price and more affordable than the normal ones there are usually charging ports on the train in first class idk abt others though and if you ask the staff on the train they will open the doors for you. if you want good quality coffee i reccomend java lounge or barista but they are hard to find in rural areas (they are a bit pricey compared to other places though but its worth the price) keep change with you all the time cus its more convenient and people will try to scam you if you gave them like Rs.1000 for a Rs.120 thing hope you enjoyed your stay thank you for visiting ☺💗

[@ourhometech]

you did the right thing to book first class. we only booked 2nd class from ella to Haputale onlt 40 min drive. But it was a disaster in 2nd class. fully packed no space to stand either. our kids did not enjoy at all.

[@kingofleague8653]

Ok! I know everyone here thinking this, so I am gona say it. You got such a beautiful soul and heart Josie! Keep smiling. ❤

[@Eagleeye644]

Thanks for visiting my most BEAUTIFUL county Sri Lanka with mostly good and warm people anywhere. It's worth the money you spend there for such a wonderful experience. For Ella train trip your main focus should be the breathtaking views and safety which is ticked ✔ ✔. It may be a bit uncomfortable bcs of the winding, adventurous and uneven nature of the track which is no one's fault. Seats may be bit small bcs Sri Lankans are bit smaller in size 😂. Also because it's so much in demand lot of local and foreign passengers rock up for that trip. It's great that you enjoyed everything in Sri Lanka. All the best for your next adventure.😊

[@lidwinabintironny]

Hey, Sis Josiel. Feeling so excited and amazed after seening your trip adventures in India and Sri lanka! and found it pretty useful for my own future trips! Would like to ask the name and the price of the fancy hotel that you have booked at 13:56 ? Thank you!

Nex time when you drink king coconuts, after finish the drinking, ask the shopkeeper to split the coconut and you want to eat the pulp inside.He will split the coconut and also he will make a little spoon for you by cutting the corner of the coconut itself. Eat the coconut pulp by using that spoon.That is very tasty and amazing.
