Fishing RIVER MONSTERS in Suriname + Jungle Trek | Palumeu, Suriname
After an eventful first day in Palumeu, Suriname, I had even more exciting adventures in store for day two! Come along with me and my guides, Julian and Ose, as we fish for river monsters in the Tapanahony River and go on another awesome hike into the Surinamese jungle!
My morning began with me on a boat in the middle of the Tapanahony River at 6:20 in the morning! This was going to be an awesome day and I could not wait to get started.
My guides were born in the jungle and grew up there, so I had the best guides possible in Palumeu. They learn to live in harmony with nature and the river. It’s something most city people never get to experience!
We’d be having breakfast on a rock by the shore. We had coffee, bananas, tea, eggs, and raisin bread. I made a delicious egg sandwich. There was some gouda cheese in there with it. The black coffee was also super strong! As I ate, a group of about 20 people arrived. They were really cool tourists from the Netherlands!
I learned that the tide sometimes is too high to eat on this rock, but usually, you’ll have at least one meal here in Palumeu. We’d chill there for a while, and then we’d head out on our jungle trek. I was really hoping to see some wildlife, which is why I cam here.
We headed out on a one-hour boat ride. As we rode, we saw four yellow-headed vultures drying their wings in a tree. We passed through some rapids, but luckily, our guides knew exactly what they were doing and navigated it like a pro. The water funnels its way between the rocks and creates the rapids!
We landed and crossed lots of boulders so we could get a better perspective of the rapids. It was so cool, but we had to be careful because you can easily slip on a rock. The spot we found was epic! The rapids took up the entire width of the river and cascaded between and around lots of rocks! There was also a lot of seaweed in the river.
My guides caught some small fish to try to use as bait to catch piranha. They found a huge fish and hacked at it with a machete and brought it in. This fish is normally very expensive! We used the organs to fish for more fish!
I followed my guides across the rocks. I had to be super careful following them. They kept moving around to find a good spot, but ultimately didn’t catch anything.
From there, we hopped back on the boat for a few minutes and rode back to base camp, Mabuka. Then, we headed into the jungle. I learned that the trails were created by locals to create pathways for the Amerindians to move through the jungle to visit their families.
We found a tarantula’s burrow, but beyond that, we weren’t having much luck finding animals. Wildlife is very hit-or-miss in the wild, but I was surprised we hadn’t really seen anything. We arrived in the secondary forest, which has lots of low vegetation and bush. It’s super dense!
The primary forest has way less bush and lots of super tall trees. We found a dry leaf frog on the ground. He looked just like a leaf! We also found a tree whose bark is used to treat malaria. After an hour, our trek was nearing its end. It was more intense than yesterday’s because of the bush.
Our captain caught lots of bait while we were gone. I was ready to fish again! We headed up the rapids, which was such a rush! I almost flew out of the boat! We got to a calm area and started fishing. There was a piranha taking all of our bait, but unfortunately, we didn’t catch anything. But it was still an epic morning!
I hope you liked coming fishing and trekking with me in Palumeu! If you did, please give this video a thumbs up and leave me a comment. Also, please subscribe to my channel 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 JUNGLE BREAKFAST + Jungle Trek Along the Surinamese River | Isadou Island, Suriname
As my epic adventures in the South American jungles continued, I enjoyed a Surinamese jungle breakfast and then went on a trek along the Suriname River! Come along with me on my latest Surinamese adventure!
Subscribe Here!
Check out my top videos!
My day began where it ended the previous day, on Isadou Island in the interior of Suriname. On the island is an awesome resort with 28 bungalows, which have private bathrooms and porches with hammocks! I slept so well under my mosquito net overnight with the sound of the flowing river, but it was time to get my day started. My first order of business was getting some breakfast!
I joined my boy Imro from Jenny Tours and headed back to one of the open-air dining areas, where breakfast was waiting for us. Our options included casaba bread, scrambled eggs, cucumber, tomatoes, and a grapefruit-like fruit. There’s also a Nutella-like spread, butter, and peanut butter for the casaba bread. I went for everything except the cucumber and spreads and also got some hot, strong coffee!
The eggs were really nice. I liked it with the casaba bread and fresh tomatoes. The bread is as hard as a rock, but it’s good! Then I went with the grapefruit, which was very tangy and fleshy. It was so tasty and filling and was the perfect thing to get me through the next few hours.
Isadou Island is so relaxing and peaceful. You can just chill out and just enjoy nature. At 10 a.m., we headed out to go for a trek in the jungle! I wore the scarf I bought around my head and covered my neck. We brought water, sunblock, and mosquito repellent. If you don’t use OFF!, the mosquitoes will attack you! Imro doesn’t believe in using it, but I had to do it if I didn’t want to be eaten alive!
I hopped in our boat. I love jungle treks. They’re the best way to see the flora and fauna of any tropical location. We reached a trail after a 5-minute boat ride. Our trek would be 90 minutes: 45 minutes into the forest and then 45 back to the boat. The trail is man-made, but there’s tons of brush everywhere!
It was amazing. When you’re quiet, you can hear animal sounds all around you! The path got more narrow as we walked and it was very slippery. I was hoping to see some animals soon. I hadn’t seen anything but mosquitoes so far, but Imro told me there are yellow-foot tortoises and sloths in this forest.
We continued through the bush and eventually found a monkey in a tree. It was a black monkey near the top. It was almost impossible to see him. We continued downhill and across some logs over a creek. It wasn’t so easy to cross. Imro showed me a sturdy tree that’s used to make crafts.
After our tour ended, we got back in the boat and headed back to the resort. I was loving this day. It was truly relaxing and peaceful. Then, I changed into my shorts to go jump in the Suriname River! The water was cold, which was perfect because it was so hot out! The water streaming over me and hitting my back was like a natural massage! Bathing in the river was such an epic experience!
I hope you enjoyed coming with me on my chill morning exploring Isadou Island! If you did, please give this video a thumbs up and leave a comment below. Also, please subscribe so you don’t miss any of my upcoming travel/food adventures!

Surinamese REMOTE VILLAGE TOUR & Trying Their JUNGLE BEER | Palumeu, Suriname
My adventures in Suriname continued along the Tapanahony River in Palumeu, deep in the interior of the country. A whopping 80% of Suriname is covered by rainforest, so a lot of the country, including Palumeu, is virtually untouched!
I was staying at a resort that accommodates 20 people. It’s made up of wooden bungalows with basic amenities, but they have electricity, so I can charge my gear! There are two twin beds with mosquito netting and hammocks on a dock outside.
My latest adventure started with lunch in the open-air dining hall! We had some roti with pumpkin mash, aloo, and chicken. There was also some spicy chili that I added to it! It was delicious together! The pumpkin was a little sweet.
I took some of the chicken off the bone. It was so tasty and juicy. It was simple yet so good and fresh! I was loving the Indian influence in the cuisine. The sauces were a real game-changer and the heat from the chilies cleared my sinuses! I loved mixing everything together!
Next, I headed to the village with my guide Julius from Mets Travel and Tours. He told me it would take 12 days to get here from Albina! We approached the village, where the houses were built on stilts so they don’t flood when it rains. There are about a dozen houses in total. We also saw the local Baptist church, Maranata Jesu Panejan. Most of the people here are Baptist!
Most of the locals were working, so they weren’t around. The few people around were in the shade. We also visited the communal hall, where meetings, celebrations, and feasts are held. People also sleep there if there’s an overflow of people.
My guides were completely covered so they wouldn’t burn. I was told that the villages are near the river because it’s their lifeline. It’s their food and water source. They bathe there and wash their clothes there. I also learned that the Amerindian population mostly lives along the river while the Maroon people are more inland.
I asked if they had anything for sale. They brought out lots of bracelets, some maracas, a knife, and arrow, necklaces, and a a flute! I got some bracelets made of seeds and leaves for my daughters. Then, I went to try a local beer. I could taste the fermentation. It was a little thick and cloudy. It was 3 to 5% alcohol and was super earthy and milky! It was so good and refreshing that I got a second round!
Then, we headed back the resort. I had another charter flight in 50 minutes. Along the way, I met a beautiful parrot! We passed by the local school, which is next to the airstrip. There are a couple hundred airstrips in the interior.
I’d get to sit in the front with the pilot! I was a little nervous because I don’t really like small planes. It was going to be a thrilling adventure. We took off and soared high above the rainforest. It was never-ending dense jungle.
We passed over towns and settlements and eventually landed smoothly back in Paramaribo. It only took 70 minutes and was a pretty good flight, although we had some bumpy moments in some clouds. I was a little freaked out, but now it was time for me to go to my hotel!
Paramaribo is so diverse. Here, you have people from many different ethnicities, including Dutch, Indian, Indonesian, Chinese, Amerindian, African, and more. It’s a true melting pot! Because of that, the food is incredibly diverse.
I arrived at my hotel, the Royal Torarica Hotel, one of the best in Paramaribo. My room was really modern, sleek, and luxurious. It had high ceilings, a king-sized bed, a couch, flat screen TV, and more. The bathroom reminded me of a 5-star boutique hotel!
I hope you enjoyed my village tour in Palumeu! If you did, please give this video a thumbs up and leave a comment. Also, please subscribe to my channel so you don’t miss any of my upcoming travel/food adventures!

The deeper into a country, the better.
In Suriname this means you end up in the jungle. So we went as far as we could.
This time, we left 'Ya' to make a 300 km ride by car, and then a 100 km 'ride' in a longboat through the jungle on the Suriname river. There, we slept in a little house to complete our tour over land.
We were impressed by the force of Nature.

A tiny village along the Tapanahony River deep in Suriname’s interior. Take a hike through the jungle to Poti Hill, explore the primary and secondary forests, go fishing in the river rapids, and visit the village!
9. Lelydorp
A mostly Javanese village along the main road leading south from Paramaribo. It’s a great place to find unique handicrafts and Indonesian-inspired street food like lumpia, satay, chicken sausage, and boiled vegetables with spicy peanut sauce!
10. Johanna-Margaretha
An area east of Paramaribo near the meeting place of the Suriname and Commewijne Rivers. Watch the pink-bellied dolphins at sunset and have an Indian dinner at the Johanna en Margaretha plantation before heading out into the swamp to look for caimans at night!
And there you have it! Those are the top 10 places you must visit in Suriname. This country is so unbelievably diverse in terms of culture and food, and is also a gorgeous country that is largely untouched and unknown to most. You will love it!

Surinamese SMOKED CATFISH + Galibi Town Tour | Galibi, Suriname
After arriving in the town of Galibi, Suriname the previous day, I woke up bright and early the next morning to have a quick breakfast, head out with my boy Imro to take a tour of the town, and have some delicious smoked catfish! Come along with me as my epic Surinamese adventures continue!

Check out my top videos!
Galibi is the northeastern-most town in Suriname and is right on the border with French Guyana. I started my morning at the guest house dining hall, where I was enjoying a breakfast of eggs, spicy and salty fish, and a pancake. I also had a strong coffee!
The fish wasn’t too spicy, but it was super salty! The fish mash had onions and chilies in it. Because Suriname used to be ruled by the Dutch, pancakes are eaten there. I put all of my fish into the pancake to see how it would taste. It was amazing! The pancake was a super thin, spicy crepe, and the fish went with it so well! Juicy and phenomenal! It was so good I got another one! The spice was the best part!
Then I met up with Imro. This was his village. He took me to a gift shop, where I found a cool leopard stool for $110 USD. There were also nicklaces, turtle-shaped figurines, pottery, bracelets, and more crafts from the area! I bought a hollowed-out calabash fruit with a turtle carved into it.
We headed back out. There were lots of mango trees. I tried one - it was more citrusy than the ones in Florida! Then we found a calabash tree and palm trees. Imro also showed me a huge, 500-meter fishing net that was being made by a fisherman.
I was getting hungry, so I was ready to eat again! We stopped to try some cashew fruit, which was super sour.
I crossed a wooden plank to get to the dried fish. There was some that was cooking in the smoker. It costs a little under $5 USD for one fish. We tried it with some casaba bread, salt, and peppers. It had a very smoky flavor and was really good, despite the spines! The peppers were the best part. They gave it a nice, intense kick! I love village food. It doesn’t get any more authentic than this.
Next, we headed over to the local primary school, but first, we came across the same tarantula in the tree from the previous night.
The downtown area of Galibi consisted of 5 or 6 houses, a church, and a school. Only 800 people live there. There’s a soccer field, a banquet hall, and lots of small houses. School was in session at Sint Antonius School!
There were about 60 kids and 9 teachers there. It was open-air, a terrace, and a Surinamese flag. The kids were shy. They ranged from 4 years old to middle-school-age. The high school is in Albina.
We left the school and came across a hut that shows the species of sea turtles that nest in the area, including the Olive Ridley turtle, the green turtle, and the leatherback.
It was boiling outside! From there, I left the Myrysji Lodge, chatted with the owner, and hopped on a boat. It would take an hour for us to get back to Albina. On the way, we looked for animals in the jungle. We didn’t see anything, though, probably because it was the hottest part of the day.
I hope you enjoyed coming with me on my tour of Galibi! If you did, please give this video a thumbs up, leave me a comment, and subscribe so you don’t miss any of my upcoming travel/food adventures!
