We think of time as a one way motion. From the past, through the present, and on into the future. And that carries along with it another impression, which is to say, that life moves from the past into the future in such a way that what happens now and what will happen is always the result of what has happened in the past. We tend to regard ourselves as puppets of the past, driven along by something that is always behind us. Because I want to turn the thing around and picture it the other way! And say, the past is the result of the present! Flowers are brilliantly colored The Stars are gorgeous The smell of the earth and the sound of the rain. Everything is marvelous once again! Once again you see the other. The man, the woman that you love. - Sport

Eins der besten Urlaubsvideos überhaupt!

Meisterwerk!!!
I'm literally crying watching this. What a beautiful piece.
Thank you for the feels
Old Ceylon ”is indescribably beautiful, cool and surreal. Known as the 'Teardrop of India' or the Pearl of the Indian Ocean, it is home to some of the sweetest people on earth and has diversified its landscape from mountainous to sandy beaches. However, I have to tell you that my beloved motherland, which is so beautiful, is now economically unstable. The main reason for the destruction of such a beautiful country is because of very weak selfish rulers. I am deeply saddened by the loss of my innocent country due to the actions of a very small group of people .... I beg you to come to my country ... come and see the contributions of our innocent people. And the beauty of my country. ... we're getting up again, Mom 🇱🇰🥺 from Sri lank
This deserves millions of views! True masterpiece!!!
Ich komm hier immer wieder gern zurück! Großes Kino! Danke!
one of the most beautiful travel videos I have ever seen!

Thank you Linda...!!!
What a masterpiece! Congrats! you move my inner self. Find out yourself and defeat your fears discovering the world
Breathtaking! truly this video is awesome!!!
Too beautiful!! Where ever I go I will not forget where I come from!!
This is a video we keep coming back to every time someone says anything about Sri Lanka tourism. Just wanted to say Sebastian, what you’ve done here is with heart. All the millions Sri Lanka tourism will spend on making their big blockbuster commercial for Sri Lanka, will never hold a candle to this, to the way you’ve captured the essence of Sri Lanka. Much love.
Hi Niruban. Thanks for your comment. The advantage is that I can make sth honest authentic, while a campaign always pushes you into some kind of direction and paints an unrealistic picture. In Loving Lanka there is also a dark side to it, which probably gives it a lot, but would never be included in an advertisement campaign.
+Sebastian Linda this is exceptional Ma salute to you!!!
Let's all share this and make it go viral!
Amazing video
I Love My Motherland.#SRI LANKA..........

Woaw! Great video.
I still have a lot to learn...;-)
spectacular... thanks for making this
I really like the monologue. It made the video mystical and philosophical.

Once again you see the other.
The man, the woman that you love.

Sebastian Linda Awesome! Thanks! :)
comebackata2 go an look up Alan Watts. His lectures are incredible. Honestly changed my life. Peace and Love, Laurence
Laurence Yu yeah his talks are nice but most of them are at least an hour long. It would be really convenient if they were chopped to bits depending on the topic
