fatphobia and the woman that beat it. and, look away now if you don't like snakes. laughs.ting ourjourney in sri lanka's capital city colombo, where the two kings of the road are the tuk—tuks, also known as auto rickshaws or three—wheelers. horn honks. ahh! and where honking seems to be a national sport. nothing like the great honking horn of a giant bus to put fear in you. there is actually over a million tuk—tuks here in sri lanka and it definitely shows, because these things are everywhere. that's a pretty high number for a country ofjust over 20 million people. the prospect of good money has prompted many young people to become a driver here. the number of tuk—tuks hasjumped eightfold in the last 15 years, causing a little bit of congestion on colombo‘s roads. and it is notjust the pros. driving a rented tuk—tuk is increasingly popular with tourists too. why are you renting a tuk—tuk today? what is it about a tuk—tuk that made you go, i will get in one of these today? well it's because of the convenience —i can stop it wherever i want and i can go wherever i want. havin
