    It is good to be back in Sri Lanka machans! 🇱🇰
    If you are travelling to Sri Lanka any time soon, I HIGHLY recommend you visit my friend's hotel. His mother is rated the number 1 chef in Ella and you can get personal safari tours in his beautiful village for an authentic Sri Lankan experience:

    That scammer must be arrested immediately. He's ripping off tourists and ruining the good reputation of our country. He's not just a scammer he's robbing the tourists. I can assure the name he said wasn't his real name. Neither he is a Buddhist. He intentionally mentioned a wrong religion just to offend. He knew what he was doing. Not everyone goes around with a camera. We need to protect the tourists before this becomes a disaster.

    At the beginning of the video, I wanted to teach a good lesson to the person who was bothering for money. Sri Lanka's name is being dishonored by these kind of scumbags. But as a Sri Lankan, I thank both families who treated brother Ali well and I am proud of them. To be honest, at the end of the video, I and my sister cried like babies.thank you for visiting Sri Lanka.Love from Sri Lanka

      Hi. I was a lawyer in srilanka who did many adoption cases back then. That's why I decided to write you. Don't take the full picture of srilanka from one or two videos. It's totally different culture rather than Europe.
      Mothers gave many babies for adoption because they didn't have other choice. I don't know your particular situation. But don't hate them at all. If you really understand the reasons around the adoption decision you may forgive them. According to the srilankan culture lot of women are forced to give their babies for the adoption specially if they are unmarried. Poverty matters a lot too. Lack of education on birth controls. Etc. Once you're big enough visit the country and understand it.

    Sri Lankan people are from the nicest on earth. I do mean it.
    That was not a scam man, These people trying to do self tours with tourists are everywhere in Asia and Africa, It happened to me in India, Philippines, Senegal, The Gambia, Ethiopia, Vietnam, Cambodia, Tanzania, Uganda ... etc.
    You can just agree on the price before you start the walk or you give them just 3-5 dollars MAX. But after he saw that you give him 50 USD so normally like that, he was like Oh my God !! this guy is a catch, I will not leave him, so I think it was your mistake from the begining.
    I did like the video so much and your way of dealing with people except the part that you are showing when you help others. But is a very nice video Ali

Unfortunately, like many countries, we have areas that face challenges such as poverty and addiction, largely influenced by political and social issues. However, this doesn't reflect the true spirit of our nation. We are a proud, compassionate people, and our country offers incredible beauty, culture, and hospitality. I hope this experience doesn’t overshadow the many wonderful things Sri Lanka has to offer. We warmly invite you and others to visit again and explore the true essence of our country. ❤

    As a Sri Lankan I am disappointed with the first two fishermen you meet. And I appreciate your kindness and welcome to my country😍

    You've got a subscriber here. Its my first video of you and am here weeping away. That hug with tears you gave to the lovely lady just melted my heart and tears just kept pouring. The hospitality of Srilankans is just AMAZING. Proud to be a Srilankan ❤

    Your making money off poor people life style. You dont take advantage of poor people. You dont need to go to poor country to make your self feel genuine. Go see how many people you can help in the slump of England

    Just stumbled on this channel. Oh my... superb! A brilliant story teller.
    You were authentic! Stood your ground when dealing with the desperate at the beginning of the video. And returned the love when with the loving.
    I learnt a lot.
    Thank you. Subscribed.

    Hi Ali, as a Sri Lankan I’m bit concerned about the scam you had to face. But I’m still happy that you had a great chance to feel that great hospitality and welcome of beautiful Sri Lankan hearts. Thanks ❤
