Hi fam 💙 Firstly, sorry we spelt 'Pidurangala' wrong. Secondly, Welcome to our new series CARRY ON! No sponsors, no clients (yet), self-funded. A lot of joy and laughs as we carry on to show you lesser known destinations around the world with just one carry-on bag!
We're changing the way we do things here so we've cut all CZcams ads (except when the video ends lol) So you get the best of our content!
We've also been hard at work for a brand new interview heart-to-heart talk series where we chat with inspiring individuals and delve into their journey. All this and more coming up really soon! You can follow my Instagram and TikTok for other food and travel recommendations!
Thank you for your support! It's gonna be good. Love, Aiken, Char, Gaius, (and Nina!)
Glad to see you guys really enjoy your self without those sponsor stress and stuff. 😊Got patron can support
I enjoyed the video thoroughly and you made me wanna visit Sri Lanka! Great chemistry between Aiken & Nina and kudos to the team for the great shots...beautiful!!
👍 👍 👍 thank you for the content!
I like the chemistry between Aiken and Nina. Both is totally on the same level of frequency. ❤❤❤❤❤
i used to think that i'd only enjoy seeing you on foodking, but i've come to realize that it's your personality in whatever video you're in that really shines through and it really makes all your contents so captivating. keep it up aiken & gang!
The wait is finally over!!! Please continue the series with Nina!!!!!
Shld have just propose
love the authenticity of these videos, and a great reminder on the darker side of tourism, nina is such a girl boss I love it
She really is! Thank you! 💙
Thank you for delivering such content. Professionally done. Loved Nina then, loving her more now, a true blue comedian. Have her more on your videos, it makes the topic lively.
Thank you so much. These guys are gems and I'm so blessed to work with them! Appreciate your comment!
Love this series! The chemistry between the 4 of you is awesome. Looking forward to explore more lesser known place via your videos
I LOVE NINA!!!
We love her too! 💙 more of Ken-nina coming up!

To char - commendations for you on the editing I totally love the color grading for the video. The only other youtuber using such edit technique is CarsWithLuke. 😘❤️
Really appreciate your food reviews and nina's commentary, 💯💯💯
Thanks you so much! 😘
Love the cinematography and editing! Sweeeeeet!
i love it!the whole series seem so calming and chilled for all.. thanks for climbing the steps and boulders too!
My experience of Sri Lanka was the same as you guys as well. We went to Sri Lanka way before COVID and was basically treated like walking cash cows. This was pre Covid so it’s not because tourism suffered, it’s just in their mindset, I can only blame the generous angmos.
Our tour guide/ driver would constantly bring us to places where he would get commission from, we would ask him to bring us to a certain elephant sanctuary and he would still bring us to somewhere completely different. We were also constantly bombarded by kids asking for money when we visit tourist spots.
Overall we still had a good time and the untouched nature was beautiful, but I would only return in maybe 10 years when the country is not so Lok kok with trash and crows everywhere
Keep it up Aiken and team!!! 🎉
thank you!!! thanks for watching!
Can’t wait for your next video! Love the content and energy
Thank you!! 💙
your video grapher quite pro. He do push in and out with slow-mo, slide left and right with slow-mo, panning shot, a lot drone shot, I also like the chemistry between Aiken and Nina
is that really Nina at 0:15???
I love the mix of vlog and cinematic content! Is Aiken and Nina dating (yet)?! I absolutely love their vibing, the lame jokes and just their chemistry and screen presence! Can we have more of Nina please?
I can totally relate to how Nina felt when they forced you to buy their stuff! The same thing happened to us at a street market stall in Hong Kong, the stallholder was grabbing on to my mum's arm and wouldn't let go! I panicked and got really angry but in the end we managed to leave... the stallholder wouldn't give up and chased us down the street cursing!
I'm glad you guys managed to get away safely, it's not a pleasant predicament if it escalated.
Anyhow, looking forward to more content!
Thank you for typing this out Valerie!!! Much to our parent's disappointment, we're both not dating but have such a great time hanging out and laughing. Haha ya!! Nina was so upset and felt quite betrayed by our tour guide! My heart goes out to the people because it's tough on them since tourism has decreased but also lesson learned!
Appreciate your comment and thank you for watching! 💙💙💙
Lived in Sri Lanka for 2 years and it's truly an astounding place. You should totally check out the Buddha Tooth Relic Temple at Kandy, and home stays at Nuwara Eliya. It's truly a sight to behold.
Haha 😂love the energy between Nina and Aiken. The tuk tuk joke though. More like Toyota No Ah
HAHAHAHA EH I laughed out loud at this joke 🤣 thank you for watching and commenting
@@AikenChiaMing 👍😅credits go to you and mentioning the Noah haha
Enjoyed watching this video. Nina is still good at what she does. Of course, Aiken too as always.

Very happy for Aiken and team. You guys deserve the universe.
Really love this series and I wish it was longer 💕 Really a big thank you to you guys for showing us such quality content! From the accoms to the activities to the food 😊
Love the chemistry between Nina and Aiken! Char really can do anything ya 💪🏻and I LOLed at Gaius “this is very poorly designed ya” 🤣

Loving the direction and energy!! Can't wait for more!

Hi Aiken and Nina and the team. Looking forward to your next collab.
Really enjoy the video. Definitely love to see Aiken and Nina on the trip ❤
I’m with Nina. Those dark moments of tourism really put me off
LOVE THIS!!! It's a really refreshing video (to me at least), keep it up!!
Aww hope it gave you a mid-week perk! Thanks for watching and commenting!
Great job with the video! keep em coming!
Thank you! New video next month!
I've the same experience about the "tour guide" and hustler when I visited there about 5 years ago
Your camera man has done such an awesome job. I’m so impressed.
Waited so long for this... more please! 🙏
Y'all too nice la! I wouldn't layan being pressured into buying the souvenir. I'll just keep saying no thanks and walk away and ignore.
Lucky got nina! Girl is fierce!
Awesome video, very fresh content and lots of effort!
Really good stuff! Keep it coming!
Loving the carry on series
18:08 He really said "like Sylvia" 🤣
Good job Aiken and Nina
quite surprised you guys gave it to that tout. I backpack sri lanka right before covid, just go anywhere without guide, dont need them. i didnt visit the Sigiriya because the ticket price is ridiculous, went to the second hill to view it instead. you guys should mention the ticket price.
Happy to see you guys again 😍🥰
So good!!
wow this is such a well done video
Y’all rlly make this trip look amazing, this country is slowly climbing up my list(!!!!)
Pls drop your itinerary pls!!
Looking forward to the next episode of Carry On
Nina's complexion... looks damn good.
Are they together ah
i laughed at your description of the penthouse haha! But really, INSANE how they managed to do that and even managed to dig a pool. People really a lot of time last time. But sorry to hear about the hustler man! You guys were too nice to give in and buy!
seems delicious food... nice place... great job guys...
Nice video aiken, can i request u to try to make a video every 2 weeks.

ngl kinda wanna see nina scolding ppl who deserve it
Nina is bae
She is quite the bae 😍
Me n wife went there for our honeymoon, super shiok. Spanky clean sri lanka.
Am I the only one finding nina getting prettier.
OMG
What about renaming the series to GET SCAMMED
ONE AND A CALF ELEPHANTS 💀
Did Nina pull out a full on Sylvia on that cheeky vendor? 10:19
75USD ????!!!!!!!!!!
Nina is great ! But the trip looks really tiring 😅
Can request for more NINA and more travel vlogs please? ❤😊
Guys, it's dangerous to break the outline of the vehicle while on safari.
Stay in the car...
75 USD?! wa this one can open until tired~
*Angry*
Why does it look like the whole country belongs to you guys 😅
Yeah! When we say "lesser known", it really is!
It's not "THE 8th Wonder of the World" because there isn't one official 8th wonder of the world. There are hundreds (if not thousands) of locations that are deemed or self declared as an 8th wonder beyond the original 7 wonders...just saying. :)
Nina Damn cute oh
Hi
Hi!
how is that a scam? just refuse and walk away
damm they got scammed
The tourism wont be back, not because of Ak or nina, just dont like the “safety” aspect.
