■ COLOMBO, SRI LANKA: Four years ago I visited Pettah market in Colombo for the first time. The market is huge, incredibly cheap and have all kinds of fake western brands on offer. Shoes, bags, polo shirts, Levi's jeans, adidas shoes... you name it, they sell it. Since it had been so long since I filmed here, I thought it was about time your favorite German embarked on another shopping spree to hone his bargaining skills. Too often though in my market videos I wander around and simply buy random stuff without any sense or purpose. Well not today. My goal for this shopping journey was to spend exactly $100 US and see just how many things I could get before setting off towards the railway tracks to give everything away to someone who deserves it. Given how cheap this market truly is... it actually turned into quite the struggle to spend it all. MORE SRI LANKA VIDEOS: ■ 4 Years Ago in the Same Market
