A Tip : If you booked an Uber or a PickMe, don't wait for them near a normal tuk tuk stand. The reason why 2 Uber drivers drove past you because they didn't want to get in trouble by picking you up in front of other tuk tuk drivers. Both taxi services Uber and PickMe are reliable, cheap and secure than normal tuk tuks. Have a nice and safe time in Sri Lanka.!
The reason, Since you mentioned there were already tuktuk drivers on the side of the road, I can only assume that if the uber driver had stop to pick you up, He would have gotten in trouble as most of the other drivers are rowdy and confrontational. They dont want to loose their "business" to uber drivers. Such an incident made it to the news, a couple of months back.
I just found your channel and I love it. I am a subscriber now and I can't wait to see your adventures and I will be looking at your previous videos too. Love your energy, keep up the good work and thanks for the content.
If you're looking for a proper supermarket go for Keells. Outlets are available islandwide. Glomark and Spar are also good but only can be found in Colombo.
So natural guys. What pleasure to see you both explore and comment candidly on what you encountered in Galle and Hikkaduwa. A big thanks from indie beachouse crew - you were wonderful guests.
Must see Sigiriya Kingdom in the clouds. Hire a guide and learn about the history as its fascinating. Can recommend excellent resorts in the area near by too. Check out Kaveri Resort. Also must visit Kandy - visit the temple to see Budas tooth. Also check out the tea growing mountains around Nuwara Eliya. Stay at the Grand hotel Nuwara Eliya too - fantastic old school hotel, best food ever!!! Enjoy!
Hello guys! Your videos have helped me a lot when planning my travels! I’ve used some of your recommendations for the Philippines, Bali, and Vietnam. I spent 2 weeks in Sri Lanka last year, and I’m going back for 3 weeks this year. We absolutely love it there. If you have time and it’s not already on your list I highly recommend going to Tangalle for pristine beaches and hiking Adams Peak if you want a very spiritual experience! I look forward to following all of your travels!
I love what you guys have been doing with your filming and editing in this episode. The slowed down shots really help us get a feel for the countryside
Great watching you guys cruise around like locals in a Tuk Tuk. Sri Lanka is a country I have not been to but I have made good friendships with Sri Lankans and like their laid back attitude. Looks and sounds like a great place to explore and you guys are showing the way around really well. Great lifestyle.
Loved the segments of you two answering questions. Just gonna say, I'm glad you two share what you can of your digital nomad life. Whatever is next, I whish you two best of luck and happy to see what I can through your eyes. Also, these videos help me plan trips!
I love your videos so cool ,in regard to the question will you have kids its nobodies business its your shoes your lives , in hence saying this I follow another travel videos and they are husband and wife and travel as you do, they have I think a 4 year old little girl and baby boy, they go all over they just recent went to Bhutan, and they have no intention stopping anytime soon ,the little girl is loving it well she is getting an education of a life time .I was happy to hear about Bear and yes you would from time to time feel home sick for loved ones normal travel safe lots f Hugs to both from little me in Melbourne xoxo
Here the freshest produce and meats are not usually at supermarkets. We get them from local butchers and weekend fairs. You should check them out as well. Meat and vegies don't get fresher than that.
If you guys ever get back to the Mayan Rivera again, get in touch with us, Mark and Marilyn. We would love to hear more about your adventures over dinner and drinks. We are living the dream, early retirement in Puerto Morelos.
Looks like you are having quite the adventure. If you are looking for ideas about other adventurous places with culture and wildlife look into Borneo. Do a river trip to see orangutans in the Indonesian part of Borneo. Go to Kuching in Malaysian part and visit the Dayak longhouses. Kuching has good museums, food, cultural history. Go to Flores from Bali and visit Komodo Island to see the Komodo dragons. I loved these places. Happy travels.
The issue with Uber in the south is they would not stop if you are at a location where the local regular road tuks are around. There is a tuk mafia in the south and if the locals see an uber picking up they will hunt these guys down. Most of the ubers are scared of them. You were staying at Indie Beach house. It is such an lovely place to stay.
During our 8 months long travel in Asia I missed family lot as well. We Whatsapp a lot and for them was exciting to also see the locations, even talk to locals via phone call 😊Its not the same as closeness but helps to go through. Its also always good to write about it. I did in style of song writing but journaling is always good. Also in Bali I learnt to do offering flowers send love and sing mantras (from Hindu in India & Bali f.e Ramadasa). Maybe that would give you Mandy also relief as for now you keep traveling. Lots of ❤🙏🧘♀️
I think they've given us quite a few updates on Bear throughout all of this. Im not sure what anyone would need to feel relieved about? Hes living a better life than I am in BC
You need to get to a keells super. That's better. Skincare you might be able to opt for cetaphil moisturizers or something. Viana is a good brand. Have a nice time here guys!
The Ubers probably didn’t stop because you were standing next to a local Tuk Tuk stand. Sometimes the local Tuk Tuk drivers chase away the big company ones.
Not sure if you eat meat but always good to avoid it in these countries. Love the tuk tuk. Made me laugh that you were expecting Sephora. Wait until you get to Nepal! ❤
Hello my favorite digital nomad couple! You have no idea how happy I am to see you fulfilling one of the dreams I had of driving a tuk tuk one day! 🛺🛵 And now I see that this is very possible!!! Wow !!! How friendly Amy was and the company was super detailed, preparing not only the documents, but also the accessories for the cell phone and a stereo!!! I'm amazed ! Mandy don't be sorry about the bike incident! Be grateful because it was the path to a new possibility of adventure to bring more experiences to your journey on this journey! I thought it was really cute, the two of them washing clothes and cooking! These simple things should never go unnoticed in a couple's life, as they strengthen the bond!🤩😇 Mandy! When another great choice you made, opt for a moisturizer from the region! I received a Carrot moisturizer from a lady in Matara, in addition to hydrating and gently perfuming, it was powerful for mosquito bite allergies with immediate effect! I got tired of looking in Brazil and didn't find anything like it other than very expensive essential oils! 🍓🥕🍏 Take advantage of opportunities as they may take a while to come back! And this is not for everyone! (laughs) you don't even need makeup for the videos, you're at the height of your youth, beautiful, full and radiant! Your children in the future will be proud to watch your videos for sure! I loved the turtle part! Here in my neighborhood we have the Tamar Project, there are some gigantic ones and last week we saw one being returned to the sea, it's very exciting! In July we received a visit from some penguins too! in 2020 I managed to see dolphins, it’s inexplicable! And finally Loyde did great driving the Tuk Tuk! Congratulations !!! 👌🛺🙏 Thank you for video including the super pleasant soundtrack that touches our soul! I apologize for the English translated by my friend Google (laughs) But I'm still loving practicing my listening with your accent! Hugs from Magic Island in Brazil 💝💖😇

Have a nice and safe time in Sri Lanka.!
I agree. It is like that in some other Asian countries too. Taxis are like a mafia.
Can't wait! You two are LEGEND!
hope Sri Lanka is treating you well ❤
How can your comment be 7 days before even the video was uploaded 5 Days ago

How many black t-shirts does Lloyd have? 😅 great vids guys keep it up! ❤
your videos are enthralling..Like the Sri Lanka series, unique land and a unique way of life
This was a great video guys. You did an awesome job at driving the Tuk Tuk, we tried hiring one in Thailand there a bit jumpy for us 😅
The issue with Uber in the south is they would not stop if you are at a location where the local regular road tuks are around. There is a tuk mafia in the south and if the locals see an uber picking up they will hunt these guys down. Most of the ubers are scared of them. You were staying at Indie Beach house.

🤗เที่ยวให้สนุก🤗
ปลอดภัยตลอดการเดินทาง
Raising kids is bloody hard work. And, you never know what you are going to get, as well.

Relieved Bear is faring well. I know how much you two adore your beloved Son.
I think they've given us quite a few updates on Bear throughout all of this. Im not sure what anyone would need to feel relieved about? Hes living a better life than I am in BC
You need to get to a keells super. That's better. Skincare you might be able to opt for cetaphil moisturizers or something. Viana is a good brand. Have a nice time here guys!
Guys u need to ask people where u could get ur groceries...try Keells or Food city for all ur needs...
Sri Lanka is the best
Such a sweet Tuk Tuk lady
Do you have to have a motorbike license?
Super travelling in sri lanka
Hello. Love your videos. By any chance are you going to the ministry of crab?
Thank you for visiting Sri Lanka..
Visit Anuradhapura as well...
The Ubers probably didn’t stop because you were standing next to a local Tuk Tuk stand. Sometimes the local Tuk Tuk drivers chase away the big company ones.
Pickme is cheaper i guess
You intrepidly sally forth. I admire you both.
Thank you so much for sharing...👍🌹❤
Are you guys planning to spend time in Polynesia?
G'day Lloyd & Mandy, you didn't say how much the Tuk Tuk cost to rent..???
Awesome guys! Having a tuktuk while traveling would be amazing!
❤❤
How much to hire the Tuk tuk

💟💟💟🌷🇱🇰👍
Not sure if you eat meat but always good to avoid it in these countries. Love the tuk tuk. Made me laugh that you were expecting Sephora. Wait until you get to Nepal! ❤
