  • ■ SRI LANKA, COLOMBO: "Be careful he is a bad man", they kept repeating as I wandered around a vegetable market on the outskirts of Colombo. Then 'the accused' told me that the people who told me to avoid him were bad themselves. Who was I to believe?
    Intent on not making a hasty decision I decided to wait it out and see as this was a unique market experience unlike no other.

    Many of people in Sri Lanka can't speak English. I wonder how he speaks English little bit and understands English little bit. I think he deserves a good job.

    Hey Herald, I'm Sri Lankan and I speak both the languages (Tamil and Sinhala). From what I heard the guide at the start doesn't seem like a bad guy at all. He's just maybe half sober. All the others are just friendly people showing their hospitality and doing business. No one tried to cheat/scam you. However I must warn that there are scammers out there.
    The women you gave the vegetables to was speaking Tamil and the Sinhala speaking driver didn't understand. She basically just wanted to show you her small son.
    Sri Lanka is a great place and I'm sure you'd love our hospitality and friendliness! Welcome to Sri Lanka and enjoy our culture!

      Yes, Sri Lanka is very welcoming and safe country to travel. But that area he went to give those donation is bit rough. Not because of they are bad people, it is just the level of poverty make them go bit wild when they see some wealth + generosity.

    I am surprised by the level of integrity these vendors have. I thought you would get ripped off when you spend money carelessly. But they all sold you those vegetables for the genuine price. The man that guided you made sure that you get the quality food for the genuine price. The mango seller wanted to keep 100 for himself when you gave him 500.00. But that man guided you insisted him to give you the change. Sometimes you can find the honesty and integrity from strangest of places.

    U are extremely polite, patient, considerate and most importantly, magnanimous. Its rare to find anyone who is selfless these days. The generosity is heart warming. Buying food and then bringing it to people who genuinely need it. The compassionate acts of kindness that u portray brings a little uplifting hope to my heart that there are still people in this world who are doing exactly what God put us on earth for, which is to take care and love each other. 👍👏💚 A lot of people could learn quite a bit from this video.

      When Harald says Norway
      Sri Lankans hear: like No-Way
      That's why most Sri Lankans say don't know,or act confused lol...
      That's all about the ACCENT that confuses them ;-).
      We Sri Lankan Sinhalese called NOORWAY in Sinhalese... Even though it is Norway in English.

    5:53 "How much is that?" Seller looks away and computes..."how much can I get from this guy?" and he knows he has to give something to the guide... Amazingly cool.
