Foreigner’s FIRST TIME driving a TUKTUK | SRI LANKA TRAVEL VLOG | RTW Trip Vlog101

- I will be solo backpacking around Sri Lanka for the next 2 weeks (and maybe more).
I have hired my own, self drive, tuktuk so I will be driving all around Sri Lanka in a rental tuktuk.
In this first leg of the journey I will be travelling from Negombo to Sigirya and I have picked up another passenger already. The journey turns out to be a lot more eventful than I had first anticipated.
…………………..
🙋🏻♂️ABOUT ME: I have quit my job, sold my car, given up my house and will be travelling around the world for a whole year. I have no itinerary and no other flights booked so I can’t tell you where I’ll be going next, or even where I’ll be tomorrow, so hit that subscribe button to follow along with my journey.

As a sriLankan muslim, I love dansals days , sinhalese are very kindly, and they give food to everyone on that day very happily ❤
It's such a kind and generous thing to do. 🙏🏻❤️❤️😊
@@leechafertravels yeah I appreciate it 📌
@@Alinahalinah1 Thank you for watching. 😊🙏🏻❤️
Thanks dear yes as a Buddhist I know in colombo Islamic areas they do dansal on our wesak and poson days..Thats we need in Sri Lanka..... we are Sri Lankan.....
@@mahindagunawardana6641 🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️
Its a poson poya day. ( poson full moon day ) . It's very special for sri lanka buddhists. they celibate it with free food and doing religious things . not just cofee you can get rice and curry , ice cream , herbal tea and many more. in that day night is very colourful for traveling Sri Lanka .
Thank you for explaining. I did see all of the other things being given away as well.
Thanks for watching the video. 🙏🏻❤️😊
@@leechafertravels when we lived in sri lanka ,our parents were vehemently christian and refused to stop at the road side when the kind people offered us food and drink at Poson! After living in England,we learned to appreciate the hospitality. Went we went back on holiday we realized in Sri lanka the people "mug" us to give things like food and drink
@@vijayafernando1 🙏🏻❤️❤️❤️
Hi Dear its full moon day I think, may full moon is special for sri lanka buddist . Enjoy guys 🎉
@@lalithperera1197 Thank you 🙏🏻😁 Are you from Sri Lanka?
Guys, if you are planning to visit Sri Lanka in May and June, there will be a lot of food donations happening all around the country. Those are called "Dansals". Coffee, Tea, Soft Drinks, food (Rice and Curry, Peas, Rotti, and so many). Feel free to have them. Thanks for the video guys. ❤ ❤ ❤ Enjoy the beauty of this Little Heaven.
Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to comment, I really appreciate it. 🙏🏻😊❤️
Thank you very much for bringing the wonder of Sri Lanka to the world
You're welcome 🙏🏻 thanks for watching. ❤️😊
We are Buddhists in Sri Lanka. Poson Poya Day is a very important day for us. In the past, monks came from India to popularize Buddhism in Sri Lanka on this Poya Day. We celebrate it with joy.
It's so cool. 👍🏻😊
Thank you for watching 🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️
01:37 Those orange colour coconuts are called King Coconut and after tasting, you probably can guess why. Btw as per Wikipedia, those are native to Sri Lanka 🇱🇰🇱🇰.
02:00 These bike rallies are not a normal thing. But traffic laws are loosely enforced during some festival days (5 or 6 days per year).
OK, I didn't realise they were king coconuts. They were delicious. Thank you for the information.
And thank you for watching the video! 😊❤️🙏🏻
@@leechafertravels Tasty and very refreshing too. Btw I'll try to fill in your other 🇱🇰🇱🇰 videos also.
@@freecommentor That would be great, thank you. Share them with your friends! 😁🙏🏻 There's more videos from Sri Lanka coming over the next couple of weeks. 👍🏻😊
That coffe guy is one of my friends . Great to see you guys enjoying Sri lankan culture and nature. Be Safe 😍😘
That's great. He even commented on the video! 😁
Thank you for watching 🙏🏻😊❤️
5:58 Due to the design of these tuk tuks, the ventilation of the driver is reduced. As a solution, there are two adjustable fins that fit under the side mirrors of the tuk tuks. Install them. 💆😇❤
Ohhhhh. That would have been good to know at the start. Thank you for watching the video and taking the time to comment. I really appreciate it. 🙏🏻❤️😊
Would love to see much longer vlogs being uploaded ❤ Enjoy your stay!
If I make them longer, most people don't watch all the way through, which effects the performance of the video.
Thank you for watching. 😊👍🏻🙏🏻

It was a special religious day for Sri Lankan buddhists. Something similar to Christmas. Sri Lankan buddhists celebrate that day because, in ancient time, that was the day that Sri Lanka got the Buddhism from India officially.

This is poson poya day in sri lanka bro
Thank you. 👍🏻🙏🏻❤️
Vesak full moon poya day on the month of May where the Lord Buddha who is considered as the religious leader of all buddhists was born, enlightened and attained nibbana and Poson full moon poya day on the month of June where buddhism was established in Srilanka are very special poya days for all buddhists around the country. People get ready with different types of decorations such as lanterns and pandols for 4 - 5 days around the full moon poya day and specially they offer many free food drinks vegetables and even clothes which are called "Dansal". Hope u had a great time here in Srilanka..... love meeting u one day and speaking to u........
