      Hello, Paddy. I'm a British national and and I'm Black. I was just denied entry and harassed in Hong Kong airport by the immigration there. They also made false statements against me. Please advise your subscribers about traveling while black in hong kong! I am pursuing legal against HK immigration.

    I was in the Philippines on Boracay earlier this year. They have electric trikes now (the equivalent of Tuk Tuk). The island is small and I saw a battery place where the drivers would pull up to and just swap the battery over with a charged one like when you swop a gas cylinder over. I don’t know how much the cost was but it was quick and efficient. No hanging around for ages waiting for a free charging space let alone the charging time itself.

    Yea, Sri Lanka is a beautiful Island. I went there many years ago. I stayed at Hikkadua beach. Lots of German tourist then. I'll never forget, when I went to a restaurant, the owner would cover the seat of the rattan chair with newspaper, because hiding in the cracks, were chair bugs! They could sense you sitting down, and come out to bite you and suck your blood! They had a numbing chemical in their bite, so you didn't feel a thing. But when You got up, you had a huge welt, where they bite you!
    Back in those days, there was still fighting going on in the North, between the Tamil Tigers, and the military. So there and Trincomalee on the East coast were a no go for tourist.
    The temple of the tooth in Candy was a must see. Also down in Gaulle, I saw how they used cuttlefish bone to mold molten gold into jewelry. I also loved the Rainbow moonstones. At the mine and factory it was fascinating watching the workers shape the stones using only a hand powered grinding wheel. Sri Lanka is a must see for travelers!

    Paddy, you keep getting better and better on your adventures. I always enjoy your videos. And your drone shots.i loved the mountain climb. And the waterfall. But not the leeches lol. I loved the monument climb. Conquering that fear. That was epic. I like how your brought up your old friends from the budgeteers. I have watched those episodes many times. Even asked if I could join in traveling with y’all at one time 🤣 Any chance of a reunion with them? It’s nice to run into old friends on your travels and catching up. Getting sidetracked is a good thing.Beautiful work on this one. But they’re all good.Always been a fan. the E Tuk Tuk is cool. Still need to work the kinks out a little. And they can thrive there. Loved it mate. Never a dull moment. It’s good to take time for yourself too. Take care and keep it up😎

    driving a tiny electric vehicle myself where i live its advisable to have two charged batteries onboard , if the first on is empty the second one usually enough to get you home , allso keep a sharp eye on the battery level during the trip as deep doscharging can hurt the range of the battery in the future
    i can allready see it : huffing and puffing finally made it to the top hears the icecream van and runs head over heels back down to get some .... seeing it drive off about a minute out

It's a no-brainer that we all want no pollution in the world and a clean environment unfortunately the current renewable energy schemes around the world are a scam. Free energy has been available for a long time there's a reason we don't have it. Hopefully one day we will I can see your intent anyway. Thanks again for the video Sri Lanka looks beautiful its on my list.
