De eerste zondag van september is uitgeroepen tot de “Dag der Migranten”. Het feit dat van oudsher in Suriname veel culturen met elkaar samen leven en daar vooral de laatste jaren veel bevolkingsgroepen bij zijn gekomen, is er de reden van dat voortaan deze nieuwe nationale feestdag wordt gevierd.

ENGLISH
On Sunday the first of September 2019 there was a celebration. For the first Sunday of September has been declared Migrants Day.
The fact that traditionally many cultures live together in Suriname and especially since in recent years many communities have been added to the population, are the reason that from now on this new national holiday is being celebrated. The festivities took place on the Independence Square.
Prior to this, a monument was unveiled at the Wakapasi by Vice President Michael, Ashwin, Adhin. The two hands symbolize the different nationalities in Suriname.
The star at the top forms the unity of the nation Suriname. The monument is a design by the artist Jurgen Mormon.
In addition to the Indigenous people, the Afro-Surinamese including the Maroons, Hindustani, Javanese, Chinese, Europeans and Lebanese, Suriname has gained a number of compatriots. For example, there are Brazilians, Jamaicans, Guyanese, Dominicans, Colombians and Haitians. On this day you can see culture, dance and other artistic expressions from the different population groups. You can also enjoy a wide range of traditional dishes here.
The phrase from the National Anthem No matter how we came together was a much heard cry that day.

UNREAL Surinamese Breakfast in PARAMARIBO + Flying to Palumeu | Suriname

The next leg of my Surinamese adventure was finally upon me! Come along with me as I enjoy an unreal Surinamese breakfast in Paramaribo and then hop on a flight to Palumeu. I couldn’t wait to start this next adventure in Suriname!

My adventure started in the capital of Suriname, Paramaribo. My boy Imro from Jenny Tours and I started off our day at a local restaurant called Jennely’s Food House that sells at least 25 different breakfast options. Usually, you pick an item that they stuff into a piece of bread, but I wanted to try everything, so I decided not to have too much bread

The food looked like a unique mix of Indian, African, Dutch, and Indonesian, and looked really good. I was so excited to eat!

I got some cucumber, tomato, lettuce, beans, beef, pork, chicken curry, kidneys, and shrimp! I opened my bread and put some shrimp inside. They were nice and small and super tasty. The shrimp were oily and fresh and came in a tomato-based sauce.

Then, I went with the chicken liver. It was dense and so full of flavor! The bread made it super filling. I got some hot, black coffee between bites and then tried some of the pork alone. It was sweet and seemed to have some Chinese influences. The beef was darker and chewier than the liver, but it was hard to eat with the bread.

Next, I tried the pom, which is like a chicken salad with mangoes and vegetable. The sweetness from the mangoes was off the charts! Then I tried some beans, which reminded me of Thailand. Everything had a unique flavor. Then I took the bread and soaked up the remaining sauce on my plate!

Then I grabbed some liver, sprouts, and greens. It was crunchy, sweet, and spicy and was my favorite dish so far! I couldn’t get enough of it! You have to eat at Jennely’s when you come to Paramaribo.

Then, I went inside to talk to the woman working there. I had to tell her how amazing the food was!

From there, we went back to my hotel and grabbed my things. Sadly, I had to say goodbye to Imro, who wouldn’t be coming with me on the next leg of my trip. I packed all my things into a taxi and headed off to the charter airport!

This would be my first time on a chartered plane in several years. It’s an awesome experience because it’s usually just you and the pilot. It’s expensive, but it’s always worth it. I’d be flying to a spot near the Surinamese border with Brazil!

At the airport, I met my guide, Julius, from Met Travel Tours. We’d be flying Gum Air down to Palumeu on an 10-seat charter plane. They weighed me and my luggage and I chilled in the VIP area with other people who’d be flying on the plane.

I boarded the plane and sat in the back. There, I had awesome views out both windows! We took off! I was a little nervous because the turbulence in tiny planes is much worse than larger planes. But I was also excited to get to the jungle! We flew over the Brokopondo Reservoir, gold mines, and the Suriname River.

After 30 minutes, we landed to pick up 4 more passengers. There was a lot of turbulence as we flew through the clouds. I could see the rainforest below as we descended. We landed in a tiny, green airstrip, where four others boarded. We only had 15 more minutes to go!

We flew right over the Suriname River as we took off again, and I could see villages below. It was so beautiful! We descended again fast and landed at another landing strip in the jungle. We were going to have tons of adventures at Palumeu! I couldn’t wait!

I hope you liked this video of my travels to Palumeu! If you did, please give it a thumbs up and leave a comment. Also, please subscribe so you don’t miss any of my upcoming travel/food adventures!

SURINAMESE Indian Food Will BLOW YOUR MIND! | Paramaribo, Suriname

After an eventful day at Brownsmountain in Suriname, my friend Imro and I headed back to the capital of Paramaribo. Join us as we make the journey from Brownsweg to Paramaribo and enjoy an amazing Surinamese Indian food dinner!

Check out my top videos!

We started the latest leg of our adventure atop Brownsmountain, the 500-meter-high mountain near the town of Brownsweg. We had quite a bit to do before our drivers could finally take us back to Paramaribo, so it would take several hours. We had to take a crazy, cracked and muddy road to leave the area. There were so many mud holes treacherous areas and we still had at least 2 or 3 hours left in our journey.

We almost got stuck so many times, but after an hour and four minutes, we reached the paved road. We changed our plans and decided to head straight to Paramaribo instead of the additional stops we’d initially planned. We stopped at a store, where I was able to buy some local insect repellent since I was out of OFF! Deep Woods.

We had a 90-minute drive ahead of us. I was starting to see restaurants with 10 minutes left and I was getting hungry! I loved my experience in Brownsweg and Isadao Island in the interior of the country, and I was heading to another location deep within Suriname the next day. We stopped at the Downtown Oasis, the guesthouse I stayed at earlier in my trip, but they were full for the night, so I got a room at the Guesthouse Kiwi instead for $20 for the night.

My boy Imro carried my bags up the stairs to my room, which was very standard. From there, we headed out to the roti shop to get some Indian food. We odered a huge spread, including two different rotis, vada, shrimp curry, an egg, tomato chutney, aloo, liver, green beans, duck, sheep, and liver with kidneys.

The roti was gigantic! I tore a piece and dove into the liver and kidneys, which was outstanding. I loved the dry gravy. The aloo was also nice and al dente. There was a spicy chutney next to it , which was super hot. The duck was also amazing, and the shrimp curry blew my mind! It was out of control! The flavors and spices were amazing and I loved the textures. This meal was like a non-veg thali!
Next, I dove into the vada, which is usually like a potato fritter, but this one was made of flour. I tried it with the spicy, red chutney, which was crazy hot. The green beans were also really tasty.

After a sip of water, I went back to the shrimp curry and liver. Everything was so fresh! The duck had more bones than the sheep, which was really good. The sheep was more gamy. I loved the gravy that came with it, and I was loving eating with my hands. You have to try the Indian food when you come to Suriname. It’s part of the heritage.

Then I tried the vada with mango chutney, which was ridiculously good. It was sweet and fruity. I mixed it with the cayenne chutney, which is way too hot. This was my favorite meal in Suriname so far!

Then I went with the chicken curry, which was super fresh and spicy. Then I grabbed some of the duck sauce in the roti, which was freaking insane!

I hope you enjoyed coming with me on my trip from Brownsweg and my Surinamese Indian dinner! If you did, please give it a thumbs up and leave a comment below. Also, please subscribe so you don’t miss any of my upcoming travel/food adventures!

Surinamese JUNGLE FOOD + Jungle Trek to the POTI HILL | Palumeu, Suriname

After arriving at Palumeu, deep in the interior of Suriname, I tried some delicious Surinamese jungle food before going on an awesome jungle trek to Poti Hill! Come along with me as I explore the wonders of Palumeu!

Subscribe Here!
Check out my top videos!

Palumeu is far off the beaten path, so the best way to reach it is via a charter plane, which takes about an hour from Paramaribo. You can also take a boat, but it will take days!

My adventures in Palumeu began almost immediately after landing, as Julius from Mets Travel & Tours and my local guide Ose took me to my beautiful, rustic, wooden bungalow at the Palumeu Jungle Lodge. It had two twin beds, a small desk, and a tiny but clean bathroom. The beds had mosquito nets over them, which you put down at 6 p.m.

Outside the bungalow was the Tapanahony River, one of the largest branches of the Maroni River! It’s located very close to the border with French Guiana. For me, the tropical wilderness with the jungle and river was paradise.

We headed back out for our Surinamese jungle food lunch. I was starving and couldn’t wait to eat! We headed toward the river and hopped in a huge, motorized canoe, which would take us to lunch.

The Tapanahony River was calmer than the Suriname River but there were still some rapids. It was really beautiful! The whole area was so serene. I was in heaven! Suriname was changing my life every single day. We landed and posted up at a campground, where we had some yuca frita, coleslaw, fish, and peanut sauce!

I love yuca frita, and it was incredible with the sweet peanut sauce. It’s almost like a really dense, fried plantain. I had to be careful with the fish because of the bones. It was a nice, fried fish. I pulled it apart to get rid of the big bones. It reminded me of a fried snapper and was really delicious!

But I was really loving the yuca frita with peanut sauce. I grew up with yuca frita in Miami. It’s so much better than French fries. The coleslaw contained tomatoes, cabbage, carrots, onions, cucumber, and corn. It had a really nice crunch and I loved the addition of the corn. We finished our Surinamese jungle food with a punch-like lemonade.

We got back on the boat for another 20-30 minute journey down the river. I couldn’t wait to start my 60-minute jungle trek! I was hoping to see some animals!

Suriname is 80% untouched virgin rainforest. As we landed, we could hear a bird in the trees! We started our trek. I could smell parrot feces. The trek was really easy and much more suited to beginners than the ones at Browns-Mountain. The trail was nice and clear of debris. As we hiked, Julius showed me a palm tree that’s used for building walls and roofs of houses.

Barely any sun could get through the canopy above us, so we were really protected. There was lots of air flowing and there were lots of fallen logs to jump over! Twenty minutes in, I was feeling the burn! Then, Julius showed me a seed pod from a tree, which is used as a pipe to smoke tobacco. We also found a paddlewood tree, which is used to make paddles, and a massive, 300-year-old tree!

We hadn’t seen any animals yet, but I was still hopeful! We reached the top of the huge Poti Hill, where there were lots of spiny, sharp plants. The hill was really steep! We spent 30 minutes there and headed back down. This area reminded me of my time in Malawi!

On our way back, we could hear a loud bird. Back at the boat, our captain had caught some piranha! We followed the Tapanahony River back to the lodge. The Maroon people live downstream, while the Amerindians live upstream! I’d chill for a couple of hours and then have dinner!

I hope you enjoyed my jungle trek in Palumeu! If you did, please give it a thumbs up, leave a comment, and subscribe so you don’t miss any of my travel/food adventures!

Surinamese River VILLAGE TOUR + Shopping for a Paddle | Isadou Island, Suriname

After a chill, relaxing morning on Isadou Island, my friend Imro and I headed out to go on a Surinamese river village tour. While I was there, I searched for a one-of-a-kind souvenir to take home! Come along with me as my jungle adventures in Suriname continue!

Check out my top videos!

I was really enjoying my time on Isadou Island. It’s located in the Suriname River in the interior of the country and is about 5 hours from Paramaribo. I wanted to head over to the town across the river and explore and get a paddle as a souvenir for my wall of masks at home. But first, it was time for lunch!

Imro and I headed to the dining hall, where we had rice, chicken, and bitter eggplant waiting on us. I couldn’t wait to dive in. I was starving!

All of the food was raised right in the area, which means it’s super organic and very healthy for you! The chicken was amazing and had a tasty sauce on it. It tasted very Indo, while the chicken itself was like Jamaican jerk chicken! It’s because of the Javanese and Indian influences here in Suriname. The eggplant was a little bitter, but I could handle it because I love eggplant.

After lunch, we headed over to the Yao Yao Village across the river. Yao Yao is a sad term in the native language, and the village was given the name because they’ve lost crops because of the rapids in the river. I love the motorized canoes they use on the river. The village was just a minute away!

I wanted to find a paddle that had been used. We reached the beach and saw a thin canoe that they will burn to make to stretch so people will fit inside. My Surinamese River village tour began with a look at the houses. They’re wooden houses, and there are about 500 people in town. Married couples sleep in separate houses.

Then we saw some seeds that contain oily nuts inside. Further inside the village, I saw lots of kids and some friendly locals. There was a woman making casaba soup, which is made of yuca. It was super hot out and the sun was beating down on me.

We found a guy selling a paddle for about $25 USD, which isn’t bad. The paddle was nice and hand-carved by the man selling it. It was as tall as me! It was worth it and was super authentic!

Then, my Surinamese River village tour continued with a look at a standard house with a roof made from maripa trees. They actually have power there! Then I spotted some yellow foot turtles at a small guest house with four rooms. They actually eat the turtles there. There was a big, gorgeous, male turtle there! The guy had a shell that he had preserved. He also showed me his bird!

Further on in my Surinamese River village tour, we walked through a soccer field and met a woman who was selling some beautiful, hand-stitched scarves, which she wrapped around me. Imro said I looked cool! She sold it to me for 75 SRD. I was going to give it to my daughter.

I was loving this Surinamese River village tour. It was an authentic look at their way of life. We saw another canoe and the Yao Yao current in the river. Back in 2006, the village flooded by over 3 or 4 meters. Then we went back to the boat to leave. The Yao Yao current is insane!

We headed right through the current! Back at the resort, I needed to cool off. We relaxed for 4 hours. I joined Imro at the water to watch him fish. He didn’t catch anything, so we went up to the dining hall to get some locally-sourced brown beans and casaba bread. They were super yummy and a little sweet and reminded me of the beans you get at a Southern barbecue restaurant. The bread was too hard, so let it soak in the beans to soften it up. It took a while to soften it up!

I hope you liked this Surinamese River village tour! If you did, please give it a thumbs up, leave a comment, and subscribe so you don’t miss any of my upcoming travel/food adventures!

INSANE Indian STREET FOOD in SURINAME + Traveling to BrownsMountain | Suriname

After 36 hours on beautiful Isadou Island on the Suriname River in the interior of the country, it was time for me to leave and start the next leg of my adventure! Come along with me and my boy Imro as we head to the BrownMountain area and try some insane Indian street food along the way!

Subscribe Here!
Check out my top videos!

My latest adventure began with me kicking back and relaxing in the hammock outside of my bungalow on Isadou Island. My mind was blown by my time on this island. In the last 36 hours, I had trekked through the jungle, searched for caiman at night, swam in the river, visited the local village, chilled out, and more!

Today, I’d get some breakfast on the island, take a boat ride up to Achone, and head back to Brownsweg.

I met back up with Imro to get a healthy village breakfast in the dining hall. We got some bananas, grapefruit, eggs, tomatoes, cucumber, cheese, bread, and coffee. I got everything except the cucumber and banana. The eggs had very little yolk in them and the tomatoes were super fresh. I loved them! I made a little sandwich pocket with a piece of bread, the eggs, cheese, and tomatoes.

After breakfast, I grabbed my backpack and the paddle I bought in the village of Jaw Jaw the previous day and headed out. I had a lot of clothes and equipment, so Imro had to help me with my bags. I said goodbye to the amazing locals and we loaded my bags into the boat. You can protect your bags and yourself from the water with some plastic.

We continued through the rapids, past Jaw Jaw, toward Achone. It would only take 30 minutes because we’d be traveling with the current. The river was super calm. On the way, we saw some red hen monkeys and squirrel monkeys jumping from tree to tree above us.

After 30 minutes, we arrived back in Achone. I was hungry again! We got back to Imro’s car. I saw someone with three paddles and bought two of them as gifts. Then I met a woman selling a flour vada and mango chutney!

The mango chutney was spicy and so tasty! It rivaled some of the ones I had in India. It had a delicious, African twist and was super fluffy. It was incredible! I asked for some more mango chutney for the last few bites. It was that good and so creamy! And it only cost me about $1 USD.

Then we bought some water inside the supermarket. We had about an hour’s drive until we reached Brownsweg. I was hoping to see some wildlife along the way. I also tried to get some money out of an ATM, but it wouldn’t give me any money. Only one had worked for me so far! I suggest getting money out of the ATM to pull out money. You get the best exchange rate that way.

After 30 minutes, we hadn’t seen much along the roads except a few huts and some logging and quarries. There was lots of lush, green bush. We arrived in Brownsweg to head up to the BrownsMountain area!

I hope you enjoyed coming with me from Isadou Island to Brownsweg! If you did, please give this video a thumbs up and leave a comment below. Also, please subscribe to my channel so you don’t miss any of my upcoming travel/food adventures!

Piercing zetten (!!) Laatste dagen in Paramaribo | Soeng Ngie & Co | The Coffee Box

Hello People ????

Stad was anders leuk! We hebben samen echt genoten van alle luxe en leuke! Ik vond het zo leuk om oude herinneringen op te halen. Ik had vooraf gedacht dat ik bepaalde plekken zou opzoeken. Gewoon om te kijken wat nog was zoals vroeger en wat anders was..

Onze dagen in Paramaribo zijn zo aan ons voorbij gevlogen. Voor we het wisten hadden we de taxi al gebeld om terug naar Nickerie te gaan. Stiekem was ik wel erg opgelucht.. ik voelde precies zo onrustigheid als toen ik net geland was... Hier kun je zien hoe DAT ging:
