hey welcome to sri lanka today we were on the northwest coast in an area called
Kalpitiya and we're staying at a really cool place called Kitesurfing Lanka let me show you around
so we are starting our day with a delicious breakfast here like
kitesurfing vodka but very soon we are getting on a boat because apparently
right off shore they're known to see dolphins a lot of dolphins swimming
around so we're gonna get on a boat drive out there hopefully we get to see
some dolphins and we're bringing you with us
and rub that cream on your face girl
look at this big boy set up right here the cream three double hand action going
on look at that gimbal movement oh boy oh
that turns me on a little bit not gonna lie this is some camera sexual camera things
happening right now alright we're getting on the boat time to go find some
dolphins everyone ready yeah come on
so this is a very special moment for Anna yes yes her
first time seeing dolphins
look he's right here
oh my goodness swimming along with us
got em come on jump up babies yeah baby
they're coming to play they're coming to play with us
what an experience that was we saw so many dolphins that was so much fun and
it's just so beautiful out here in the water it's so blue the sky is clear
today these dolphins were playing with us
Wow there were a few special moments that I wasn't able to capture on camera
like there was this baby dolphin that jumped out of the water and spun around it happened twice
unfortunately I wasn't recording but it was so cool this is definitely an experience I would
recommend if you come here
so Anna first time ever in your life seeing dolphins
cannot have words
I'm so excited
behind the scenes of making a travel movie
they're filming film and look at her walk and look
at him film
yea yea yea
so this is actually the reason we're
here on this trip this company called Travsome a travel brand here in
Sri Lanka organized all of this because they are planning on making a cinematic video
showcasing some lesser-known parts around this beautiful island of Sri Lanka
and I was invited to come and make some
vlogs so while they're focusing on making only a three-minute video from
this whole trip I am going to make full longer vlogs showcasing what these
destinations are like and a little behind the scenes into their cinematic video
So we found this nice location that has a bunch of palm trees and she is walking back and forth and
they are following her on the gimbal
boom get those smooth steady shots
we also got second camera over here boom got those multiple angles zoom
so those are the guys who work for Travsome but there's also someone else on this trip
with us what's your name where you from
I'm Anna I'm from Spain from Barcelona
so the guys were looking for a beautiful girl to be in their cinematic video so
they found her so she's also hanging out with us for the week
ladies and gentlemen welcome to Southeast Asia's first-ever CrossFit gym right on the
beach this place is called the BNKR it's literally right next door to
kitesurfing lanka and we just met the owner her name is Vicky she's from
England she opened this place about a year ago and she just shared her story with us
so what inspired you to come here?
kalpitiyia?
I actually don't kite surf either so people think it's weird that I'm here
I didn't want to go down south because it's very much surfy
I didn't fit so much with the CrossFit demographic I feel like people would probably question the cost of the classes
where is the demographic of kiters is a little bit more affluent
professionals a bit older and they're not the kind of people that would
question it they understand the value of the trainers of the equipment and things like that
and also it's quite busy down south it's been done
there's another company not like this not on the beach but doing similar things
so I wanted to come some a completely new where you can put the gym
literally right on the beach
so I'm the only CrossFit gym in the whole of Asia on a beach
yea first ever
and now I know why
because sand is a b*tch
and she also opened a cafe right here and she's cooking some food for us right now so
we're gonna go try I'm excited
right here we have a barbecue jackfruit pizza instead of meat they put jackfruit
on it which is kind of like a meat substitute and it's a fruit
oh my goodness this looks so good
This is our smoothie bowl
papaya and banana smoothie bowl with some ginger
then we've got our homemade granola. Gluten free granola
so because you can't get gluten free oats here I have to import them
I use a local breakfast item which is rice flakes it's what they feed for kids is porridge in the morning very nice
presentation on point that looks so nice
how's that taste?
no words just sounds
amazing
so we just made it back to kitesurfing lanka
and i just met these two lovely people
Daniel, right? and Romina
where you guys from?
I'm Dutch and I'm from Germany
and they are currently living and working here helping out with promotions marketing
stuff social media all that fun stuff oh yeah
and kite surfing
and kitesurfing as well, cool
so they just showed me something cool that they invented
look at this fancy little thing right here so what's this called?
just in case
and can give you a little bit of an introduction as to what just in case is?
so basically it's just a phone case it's really simple
and you click your phone in but then it's strapped
around the cord around your body which is really convenient because you can
never drop your phone anymore
and I don't need pockets so I can just wear my dress with my phone around
don't have to hold it in my hand
also with the bikini it's pretty handy on the beach
yes it seems very convenient for travel I'm sure I
mean you could bring in college a travel case yeah the amount of times you drop
it into water or you're on the boat you want to take a picture video like up the
dolphins you see but you're kind of scared to like did you drop your phone
in the water and you can just hang it around your neck so where can they find
will leave links in the description so you can check that out if you're
interested go support them they invented this and made it themselves very cool
almost left you hanging
all right we spent two amazing days here at
kite surfing Lanka and I could easily spend much more this place is so nice
there's so much to do it is known as the kite surfing capital of Sri Lanka but
even if you don't go kite surfing there's still so many activities from
dolphin and whale watching to wakeboarding and stand-up paddleboarding
which I regret because we never did unfortunately we're about to leave here
in about 20 but they offer free stand-up
paddleboards and kayaks you can take it around this big Lagoon and go into the
ocean such an active healthy lifestyle that's promoted around here and it's
just not very popular so you don't get the over tourism it's not massively
crowded it's just relaxing and quiet and very peaceful out here so if this sounds
like something you're interested in I'd highly recommend coming to Kalpitiya and
check out kitesurfing lanka but for now we're gonna get in the van with Travsome
and go to our next location so we'll see you in the next video if you made it
