4x6 - How to drink in India's dry State

February 7, 2019

INDIA, AHMEDABAD: India's state of Gujarat is often referred to as a 'dry state'. Why? Because people there aren't allowed to drink. Not that that was going to stop me. But before I attempted to go about procuring some magic potion through unofficial channels, I figured it's worth a shot to try.

4x7 - Indian Street Haircut in Ahmedabad

February 7, 2019

INDIA, AHMEDABAD: In this new series called Harald Spreads the Wealth or Harald Shares the Rupee (jury still out on the title) I take one month's money donated by my Patreons and give to a deserving self-employed individual or entrepreneur. This month the lucky recipient was a hard working Indian street barber / hairdresser. As I walked by his shop he had a big smile on his face and welcomed me to sit down. So what's his story and the nature of is one man business? What hairstyle did I go for? And was he better than the Delhi hairdresser? Watch me get a hair-cut in the streets of India for the answer :-)

.30 Razor Shave - Indian Street Barber Ahmedabad

February 8, 2019

INDIA, AHMEDABAD: After my street hair-cut I need a street beard trim if not outright clean shave. Luckily in India's 5th biggest city by population street barbers are everywhere. And best of all, they seem to charge a uniform 20 rupees for a shave. So once again I sat down on the streets of Ahmedabad not really knowing what to expect. . . .

4x10 -
.80 Punjabi Indian Street Food

February 11, 2019

INDIA, AHMEDABAD: Ever since I started sampling the Gujarati street food around Ahmedabad people have been telling me their favorite is actually Punjabi dishes. I've therefore long since wanted to put this to the test, but how? I don't know what Punjabi street food even looks like! Luckily today I ran into a stall selling a Punjabi potato dish by pure accident. So was it really better than the Gujarati dishes I've had?

4x11 - I invaded an Indian slum

February 14, 2019

INDIA, AHMEDABAD: In the middle of India's 6th largest city lies a magical city within a city. It's often referred to as the local slum or joked about as the Hollywood Colony. Where or how it got the name no one has been able to tell me. But this is hands down the wildest happiest most lively place I've ever encountered on my India travels. Every time I've driven by, there's been some festival or wedding party going on. The people are dressed in colorful Rajasthani fashion and nearly everyone says hello to me as I pass by. Knowing though that the interweb is full of useless videos of people doing walk through in exotic areas I thought I'd do one better. Why not show people what the inside of this place looks like and how these people live? Thus was born Harald Invades....

4x12 - India Slum Dinner

February 18, 2019

INDIA, AHMEDABAD: After breaching the Hollywood Colony's defenses using a policy or relentless attrition, it was time to bond with the locals. And what better way to bond than over dinner? Indian food as I've relayed in countless videos is damn tasty but also much more hygienic than its reputation. When this Indian family offered me to eat with them I was therefore overjoyed at the chance of partaking in this experience. So what dish did they cook? And what does an Indian family dinner even look like?

4x13 - surprise for Indian family

February 20, 2019

4x15 - What does a house in an Indian slum cost?

February 25, 2019

INDIA, AHMEDABAD: Most people likely don't dream of moving to an Indian slum but let's say for some reason you do. What does a house there cost? How big is the average home and what does a modest Indian house even look like?

4x16 - Shave Vietnam

March 14, 2019

SAIGON, VIETNAM: After driving around in Saigon's sweltering heat heat for 2 hours my patience was wearing thin. I'd been looking for a street barber so I could get shave but without success. The time was ripe for compromise. I thus opted for an open air barber in the poverty stricken district 6. The shave went as expected but as I was leaving I realized that this was a family run business and that the barber was living on premises with his whole family. This I had to investigate....

4x17 - Vietnam Capsule Hotel

March 14, 2019

SAIGON, VIETNAM: Not having seen a capsule hotel since my first trip to Japan in 2001, I became pretty excited when I learnt that Saigon actually has one. Although pricier than your average budget hotel room in this mega city, Sunland capsule hotel offers something the others don't and hence charge accordingly. A unique experience you'll never forget. I therefore had no choice but to book in to my very own private capsule for a once in a lifetime experience.

4x18 - Vietnam Street Food: Mexican Tacos

March 16, 2019

SAIGON, VIETNAM: The variety of food on offer in the bustling streets of Saigon, Vietnam's biggest city, is second to none. Everything is on offer in all price ranges. Still one of the last things I expected to encounter on my Saigon street food hunt was an American making Mexican food in Vietnam! THIS I had to try.... so how was the tacos and what did they cost? And do people in the streets of Saigon recognize me? This and more in today's episode.

4x19 - How YOUR Shoes are Made in Vietnam

March 17, 2019

SAIGON, VIETNAM: Vietnam's economy is booming with small scale manufacturers popping up everywhere. Jeans, shoes, t-shirts and everything between heaven and earth are made in workshops where workers are laboring away at an impressive 17 hours a day. So what does it look like inside one of these operations? And how are the good produced? As Vietnam is quite far behind the West in terms of economic development and only begun the process of industrialization a few decades ago, it should come as no surprise that manufacturing here is a highly labor intensive endeavor. So join me as I take a closer look at Vietnam's economy by touring a shoe manufacturing business that has been in the hands of the same family for 30 years.

4x20 - Calvin Klein: Fake Market Vietnam

March 17, 2019

SAIGON, VIETNAM: I flew to Vietnam with nothing more than the clothes I was wearing and a change of t-shirt and underwear. Top of my agenda was thus to scour through Saigon's famous 'fake' clothes market (Ben Thanh) for a 2nd, 3rd and 4th outfit. From Nike shoes, Tommy Hilfiger t-shirts and Calvin Klein underwear this market has it all. So what do the products cost? What is the starting price? And what can for example a t-shirt be haggled down to? This and much more in episode one of my mega Vietnam fake market hunt. English

4x21 - Scammed in Fake Market Vietnam

March 20, 2019

VIETNAM, SAIGON: The market shopping spree continues. After having been royally fleeced in the first episode I continue to get flagged down by greedy vendors eager for a mega payday. Seeing as I quite enjoy seeing how life and work at this market perpetuates itself I solider on. Besides, can one really ever own enough socks and t-shirts? And is overpaying when you know you are really a scam? The answer is no and no ;-)

4x22 - Converse Shoes Vietnam Fake Market

March 25, 2019

VIETNAM, SAIGON: I'd bought nearly everything I needed in this market apart from one thing. A new pair of shoes. Not that I needed a pair but I was curious to see how much a fake pair of Adidas shoes cost i Vietnam plus it was rather fun to bargain with the funny sales women. So I decided to go on one last market hunt just for fun. So how much does a fake pair of Adidas shoes cost in Vietnam? What are the cheapest shoes? And what is the price for Converse shoes?

4x23 - Bangkok Korea Town: Pork BBQ

March 27, 2019

THAILAND, BANGKOK: In the middle of Bangkok there's an area or mall called Korea town. I've wanted to try the Korean BBQ there for over a decade now but was too afraid to venture into a Korean restaurant alone. But today was the day when I decided to put a stop to this. I needed to fid a local ally so I could try out Bangkok's finest Korean BBQ and suffer no more. How did I do it? What was the Korean food like? And is Korean food better than Thai food?

4x24 - Bangkok Steak: Matsusaka Beef

March 31, 2019

THAILAND, BANGKOK: The best beef steak I've ever had was in Landmark hotel's Rib Room Steakhouse. A decade ago I went there for a Kobe beef I have not been able to get out of my mid. So with Mr. Noodles in town, it was the perfect occasion for a second visit to Landmark hotel. Upon entering the restaurant however I quickly realized that the Kobe beef was no longer on the menu. Though they had substituted it with something even better and far pricier. What was it? And what did this ridiculously expensive dinner cost in the end?

4x25 - Vietnam's Worst Chicken: Street Food Gone Wrong!

April 10, 2019

VIETNAM, SAIGON: Most of the food I try in Asia, especially the street food, is excellent. But there's always the exception. This day in Vietnam was a horrible food day. After not having had a single bite of anything for 36 hours I decided to sit down at a street restaurant to eat a whole chicken. I was mighty hungry and looking forward to devouring it like no chicken I've ever dug into in my lifetime. So what was wrong with the food and why was it so bad?

.20 street shave in Asia? Well, you be the judge. I enjoyed them both. If you find yourself in Las Vegas and in need of either a Haircut or a shave, you can find 'The Barber Shop: Cuts & Cocktails' on the famous Las Vegas strip on the ground floor of the Cosmopolitan Luxury Hotel. The service was excellent and the people working there were really fun.">

4x26 - Shave Las Vegas Barber

April 17, 2019

LAS VEGAS, USA: You've most likely seen me do a street shave in countries like India and Vietnam. Often Americans comment under said videos asking if I could make a similar one at an American barber shop. So how does an American shave compare to a

.20 street shave in Asia? Well, you be the judge. I enjoyed them both. If you find yourself in Las Vegas and in need of either a Haircut or a shave, you can find 'The Barber Shop: Cuts & Cocktails' on the famous Las Vegas strip on the ground floor of the Cosmopolitan Luxury Hotel. The service was excellent and the people working there were really fun.

4x27 - I was attacked by Coppercab!

April 22, 2019

4x28 - I had Cobra for dinner

April 29, 2019

VIETNAM, HANOI: I've tried some strange meals in my time touring the globe but never have I had one that was slain, drained and chopped up right in front of me. But you know what they say, there's a first time for everything. Hanoi is actually quite famous for its snake restaurants where people come not only from abroad but also from across the country to try this specialty dish. So how is the meal prepared? What was the heart like? And what does this tasty meal cost? I was able to find the restaurant in Google Maps. It's called Nhà Hàng Trọng Khách.

4x29 - I had Cobra for dinner 2

April 30, 2019

VIETNAM, HANOI: Second part of my visit to Hanoi's Cobra village where they specialize in various snake dishes. After choosing the Cobra and watching them prepare it in episode 1, it was time to taste the fruits of their labor. They turned one Cobra into 6 different dishes all unique in both looks and taste. What I was eating and how I was supposed to eat it I had no idea. Luckily other patrons of the same restaurant came over to my table and were more than eager to explain each dish.

4x30 - I got a makeover in Hanoi

April 30, 2019

VIETNAM, HANOI: After downing the beating snake heart raw, I felt like a new man. That called for a change in appearance. But to what? As I walked into the reception of my hotel it suddenly hit me: Go Gwyneth! (you'll see why in the vid) So off I went to the nearest hair dresser for a total hair makeover. So what color did I go for? And how much did it cost? And how good are the hairdressers in Hanoi, Vietnam's capital?

4x31 - Street Barber Hanoi

May 1, 2019

VIETNAM, HANOI: Driving home from the snake village I came across and awesome area along the highway full of barbers. But one in particular caught my eye. He had a chair set up in the middle of the road next to a tree. Although I didn't need a hair-cut nor wanted a shave I realized I had to check this place out. It's not like any of that has stopped me before right? So the next morning it was off to find this novelty of a street barber. But where was he? I had forgotten the location. After driving around for an hour I finally figured it out.

4x32 - Dangerous Jungle Hike Vietnam

May 2, 2019

BA VI, VIETNAM: In the 19th century Vietnam became a part of France's colonial empire. This legacy can be seen in the architecture in a number of French quarters across Vietnam's major cities. That this legacy extended to more remote forests and mountains though was news to me. I was therefore mighty excited when I found out about an abandoned church in a forest a couple of hours drive from Vietnam's capital Hanoi. This being the monsoon season hough my journey there was not as easy as I had hoped.

4x33 - Alone in Vietnam Jungle Theme Park

May 4, 2019

BA VI, VIETNAM: After trekking up the mountain through the thick monsoon fog and investigating some secret colonial ruins, I was aching for a swim. But where was the waterfall? I drove around for an hour and all I found was an angry forest patrol who fined me for trespassing around a lake. As I drove away in disgust I saw a fairground ride in what appeared to be someone's backyard! A theme park on private property? I couldn't believe my eye! I was in Vietnam's jungle after all. As I drove around the property however it turned out it to be huge! This was a legitimate theme park built around a waterfall. But there was a catch....

4x34 - Vietnam Capsule Hotel

May 5, 2019

HANOI, VIETNAM: There are luxury hotels and then there are budget hotels. In Asia however there's yet another type of accommodation for those on a tight budget: capsule hotels. Invented in Japan, this hotel type is now spreading across Asia to satisfy the insatiable thirst for budget accommodation amongst European and Asian travelers alike. This particular hotel I stayed at is located in Vietnam's capital Hanoi and has only been open for a week. Naturally it was in immaculate condition. But what was it actually like to reside in one of these capsules? And when normal hotel rooms in Hanoi are so cheap, can one justify to stay in a capsule when savings are in the single digits? This and more as I tour Vietnam's newest capsule hotel.

.07 Meatballs - Philippines Street Food

May 13, 2019

PHILIPPINES, MANILLA: Whilst doing some shopping in Manilla's biggest market, Divisoria, I stumbled into a guy who had made his own motorbike from a boat engine. This I had to film! As I started to roll tape my market excursion quickly turned into an interesting little culinary experience. A woman selling some kind of meatballs caught my attention and I decided to try her food. Struggling with food poisoning I'd caught at a roof top restaurant the night before, I was feeling mighty under the weather and this chicken would power me up! There was only one problem. I didn't understand her very well and when I tried to severely overpay using a 500 not (as it was all I had) the meal nearly fell through.... Luckily the mic on my camera works far better than my ear under such chaotic and extremely noisy circumstances and caught the whole train-wreck of a conversation on tape for you guys to hear. Enjoy ;-)

4x36 - Philippines Island Hunt

May 22, 2019

PHILIPPINES, LEYTE: The easiest way to maneuver your way around the Philippines from one island to the next is by plane. But who wants easy when on an adventure holiday? By far the coolest, albeit time consuming method to island hope around this nation of 6000 islands, is by boat. This being my first time truly touring around in this country I wasn't quite sure what to expect when I boarded the ferry in Cebu destined for one of the country's most underdeveloped island Leyte.

4x37 - surprise for Filipino father

May 22, 2019

PHILIPPINES, LEYTE: After meeting Christen’s incredible family and seeing how they are able to get by and make things work with so little I knew this was the best candidates for a donation video since the family in Ahmedabad. The only problem was that there was no functional ATMs in Burgos. Me and Tim thus hopped on a bus to the next town. An hour later in unbearable heat we arrived only to find yet another cash machine that did not take MasterCard. 5 machines and one actual bank branch visit later and still no luck. Diner’s Club or Visa were the only options. After searching through the whole city we finally found the one machine that accepts MasterCard and the cash was secured. The next evening we ventured over to the village only to find the house empty. A lengthy wait ensued were we encountered some awesome villagers and hit a fantastic insight into life in this scenic little Filipino beachfront town.

4x38 - Pork Lechon - Philippines Street Food

May 23, 2019

PHILIPPINES, LEYTE: As we arrived in Leyte and had a 4 hour drive ahead of us, it was about time we got a meal inside our bellies. Luckily on our first San Mig pit stop, we came across an epic pork lechon dealer. This was my first real run in with a proper Philippino street food kitchen. But did it disappoint?

4x39 - Life as a Filipino coconut harvester

May 24, 2019

PHILIPPINES, LEYTE: Fresh coconut juice is one of the most delicious beverages in the world. Little did I know however the amount of labor that goes into harvesting these delicious fruits. In the Philippines I was lucky enough to be invited to see this process with my own eyes.

4x40 - Inside Filipino village home

May 25, 2019

PHILIPPINES, LEYTE: What is life like in a Filipino village? What do people’s houses look like? And how many people live in one house? This and many more questions are answered in today’s episode which takes you inside on a grand tour of a Filipino family’s home in a picturesque amazing little beach front village on the island of Leyte.

4x41 - Philippines Sim cards are a joke!

May 26, 2019

PHILIPPINES, LEYTE: Nothing has caused me a bigger headache in the Philippines thus far than SIM cards. Move from one island to the next and your old SIM card stops working. So just buy a new one you say? Well it's not that easy...

4x42 - Secret Beach of Leyte Philippines

May 26, 2019

PHILIPPINES, LEYTE: Given that the Philippines consists of 7641 islands there are naturally going to be tons of epic beaches in this tropical nation. So which is my favorite thus far? The secret beach of Leyte which only Tim The Great knows how to find.

4x43 - 'Hi Baby!' - Mindanao Philippines Roadtrip

May 28, 2019

PHILIPPINES, MINDANAO: Whilst moving from one Filipino island to the next is always an incredibly arduous endeavor, it is also wildly entertaining. Case in point, the boat from Leyte to Mindanao. From crazy diver hunting for coins on the ocean floor to the karaoke at the back of the boat. There was never a dull moment. Then we hit Mindanao and things got even more interesting....

4x44 - Pork Party Mindanao - Philippines Street Food

May 30, 2019

PHILIPPINES, MINDANAO: After a long hard day of traveling it was time for an epic pork chop hunt. This being the Philippines though, I didn’t have to hunt for long. In fact I just crossed the toad and I was in lechon heaven!!! But which stall to choose? There were so many...

4x45 - Philippines Beach Hunt: Siargao Rock Pools

May 31, 2019

PHILIPPINES, SIARGAO: The coolest island in the Philippines right now, or so I've been told, is Siargao. A true surfer's paradise it's also got a lot to offer for pork chop hunters and connoisseurs of exotic swimming locations like c'est moi. Therefore I set out at 6AM with Progressive Shannon to tour the whole island in a single day by motorbike to find the best secluded beaches Sairgao has to offer. First stop, Magpupungko beach, famous for its rock pools...

4x46 - Filipina Kitchen Invasion

June 1, 2019

PHILIPPINES, SIARGAO: After riding for a good 6 hours we were running critically low on fuel. Seeing as we had not yet eaten breakfast either energy was running low. In other words it was already waaaay past pork o'clock! This being the Philippines though a luscious juicy looking pork meal is never too hard to locate.....

4x47 - You Won't Believe How They Live

June 3, 2019

PHILIPPINES, SIARGAO: Nothing beats seeing how people live. NOTHING! Whilst touring Vietnam I often rode past little communities of houses standing on stilts out in rivers and swamps. I just never got around to visiting one. When I was touring Siargao, an island in the Philippines with Tim Shannon, I once again rode past such a community. Sadly we were on a deserted beach hunt and Shannon had already ridden way ahead. This wasn't the day for a 'Harald Invades'. I thus made a mental note of where these houses were and decided to try and backtrack here another day. The next day I set out in the blazing sun to once again find this incredible looking swamp that for some reason people have decided to turn into a home. After an hour of being roasted in the scorching heat i found it. I parked my bike and started to roll tape. This is what ensued.....

4x48 - Squid BBQ - Philippines Beach Food

June 4, 2019

PHILIPPINES, DAKU ISLAND: After an incredibly disappointing island hopping tour we came to what was our final destination: Daku Island. Luckily this fantastic little gem of a beach made up for the lame experience we had at the other two. The claim to fame of this little beach seemed to be the seafood. There were 3-4 little straw huts with 5-6 chefs working frying up your food of choice inside on a wood fired grill. There were pork chops. There were blue marlin. There were squids. And the was beef! Having never eaten squid before I opted for the unknown. But how is squid even prepared? And how do you eat it? The learning curve was steep.....

4x49 - Apartment Philippines (extreme rip-off)

June 10, 2019

PHILIPPINES, SIARGAO: Finding a reasonable apartment or hotel room to rent can be a difficult task when traveling to the Philippines. There's one exception. At the high end price range you seem to pay slightly less than you would in other Asian holiday destinations. At the budget level or mid-range however prices in the Philippines can be outrageous. Case in point this tiny little studio I rented fro per day (!) on Siargao island.

4x50 - Nutella Banana Waffles Philippines

June 13, 2019

PHILIPPINES, SIARGAO: Of all the food I thought I'd find in the Philippines, waffles with banana and Nutella was about the last thing I'd ever expected. But as I've said in countless videos on this country... in the Philippines expect the unexpected. After the Nutella Waffle I embarked on a walk back to my hotel. On the way there I ran into some interesting people and and witnessed the amazing beauty that is Siargao island once the sun has fully come up.

4x51 - Deleted Scenes: Philippines

June 14, 2019

PHILIPPINES, SIARGAO: A lot of the scenes I film don't make it into my videos. Here are some of the scenes that didn't make the cut from my recent Philippines adventure.

4x52 - Luxury Hotel Sri Lanka - Mövenpick Colombo

June 27, 2019

SRI LANKA, COLOMBO: Despite traveling my whole adult life I've never stayed in a five star hotel. I thus decided to treat myself before I go touring in the remote areas of Sri Lanka to some five star luxury in the capital city of Colombo. As far as online reviews are to believed, there's no hotel in Colombo better than the Movenpick Resort. So join me as I tour the buffet, the King suite and rooftop swimming pool.

4x53 - Sri Lanka Market Spree: Cheaper than India?

June 28, 2019

SRI LANKA, COLOMBO: The cheapest market I've ever been to was the old bazaar in New Delhi. And in all honesty I never thought I'd find a market anywhere in the world with lower prices. That was until I discovered Pettah market in Sri Lanka's capital Colombo. So what do you think about the prices? Is Indian markets pricier or cheaper than those in Sri Lanka?

4x54 - Avoid this man in Sri Lanka!

June 29, 2019

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.

4x55 - Sri Lanka Street Food Night Rally

June 30, 2019

SRI LANKA, COLOMBO: After only 3 hours in Sri Lanka's capital Colombo I stumbled across the country's signature dish; Kottu. Whilst in the process of devouring said dish I also ran into a long term viewer of this channel named Jeremy. As with pretty much everyone I run into wherever I travel, he knows a lot more about food than I ever will. So when Jeremy suggested we do tour of a famous beach front street food area in Colombo I grabbed my camera and hailed the nearest Rickshaw.

4x56 - How I Became Sri Lanka's Greatest Rickshaw Driver

July 1, 2019

SRI LANKA, COLOMBO: My 2nd day in Colombo I ran into a great Tuk-Tuk driver who upon driving me around for a few said he'd be happy to show me his family and home. This was an opportunity I could not miss. His house turned out to be about two hours drive outside of Colombo though. To make the time go faster he suggested I try some local Sri Lankan lemon rum.....

4x57 - Inside Sri Lankan Village Home

July 2, 2019

SRI LANKA, NEGOMBO: After a grueling two and a half hour Tuk-Tuk ride we finally arrived at my driver's village home. Before we even entered the house it was quite adamant that this house has huge potential but was still under construction. He still has loans on both the property and the Rickshaw so it is a tedious work on progress. He saves up money, invests then takes time off to build. Once the money runs out he repeats. So what did the house look like as of right now and how long has it been under construction? And how many people are already living here plus how many will move in in the future?

4x58 - Surprise for Rickshaw Sri Lanka

July 4, 2019

SRI LANKA, NEGOMBO: The sun was about to set and it was looking bleak for my visit to the beach during daylight hours. So Sri Lanka's 2nd greatest rickshaw driver made an executive decision and drove by his daughter's house in a village near Negombo for a surprise visit. The stage was now set for another unique look into the life of a Sri Lankan family. This second house though was somewhat dimly lit but at least I got a feel for what it was like to live there. It looked like a very tight nit community and a happy place to live. After a visit to Negombo beach where it seemed the whole city had decided to go for an evening swim we drove back to Colombo. I was dead tired and couldn't wait to get back to the hotel. Then it dawned on me that all I had done was be a passenger whereas Aurun had been driving all day and still had another 2 hours ahead of him before he'd be back to his house. What a work ethic! This deserved a reward....

4x59 - Hotel Kandy Sri Lanka

July 5, 2019

SRI LANKA, KANDY: After a 4 hour Uber ride I check-in to a budget hotel in Kandy. A city in the mountains of central Sri Lanka. But first I had to find the place which was easier said than done. Luckily Sri Lankans speak English very well and I ran into some people on the way who were more than happy to help me out.

4x60 - Sri Lanka's Worst Market Scammer

July 6, 2019

SRI LANKA, KANDY: Whenever I'm in a new city I like to check out the local markets to see what goods are for sale and how much they cost. I generally don't care much for the price (whether I overpay or not) on these occasions as I'm happy to help out the local vendors who toil there day in and day out. But even I have my limits. After buying some socks at a pretty decent price at at the first market stall I entered I decided to go on a little shopping spree. It was then that I ran into the biggest con artist I've ever meet in any market worldwide!

.80 Sri Lankan Noodles Kandy

July 8, 2019

SRI LANKA, KANDY: After procuring a motorbike I decided to search for a local gym to do some progressive reps. Whilst on my way to one on the outskirts fo Kandy I saw a neon sign blinking which read NOODLES! So after U-turn I sat down for a highly entertaining bowl of Sri Lankan noodles.

4x62 - Jungle Luxury Resort Sri Lanka

July 8, 2019

SRI LANKA, KANDY: As I drove away from Kandy my motorbike kept breaking down. Not in the mood to be stranded on some rural road in the middle of the jungles of central Sri Lanka I searched for hotels using Google Maps. Turns out just a short one hour drive North of my position there was a hotel with a 9.7 star rating on Booking.com. This I had never seen before! I've also never seen anything in this price range either away from both a beach and a major city. After 2 minutes of going back and forth with myself curiosity got the better of me and I made an executive call. I booked the room at the Sri Lankan resort in the middle of the jungle. Now all I had to do was find it before the bike broke down yet again....

4x63 - Luxury Hotel's Breakfast - Sri Lankan Jungle

July 9, 2019

SRI LANKA, KANDY: My whole life I've always hated hotel breakfasts with a passion! Yes, PASSION! Dry crispy flavorless white bread with a bunch of cereals and toppings no man would ever choose were he staring into his own fridge. On top of that they end ridiculously early (so that most people won't be able to make it to this 'free' meal'. So why even bother? Well, seeing as this was the priciest hotel I've ever stayed at, I was kind of obligated to at least see what this Sri Lankan jungle hotel breakfast looked like.. .

4x64 - The Wine Man of Ukuwala

July 10, 2019

SRI LANKA, KANDY: After a brief drive to the nearest town called Ukuwala, I asked around for the nearest store selling entertaining beverages. My plan was to simply film a minute or two of interacting with the shop owners before driving back to my hotel. That was until I ran into Sri Lanka's fine white wine man!
