Deep-Tissue Massage From Han's Palace

 Deep-Tissue Massage From Han Palace Story Time: A Self-Care and Wellness Journey in Paramaribo Hello friends, your favorite Surinamese pen pal is back with another Story Time episode! This time, we're going on a self-care and wellness journey right here in Paramaribo. After a long week of work, my body was crying out for a massage. So, I decided to spoil myself and headed over to Han Palace . It seemed to be my lucky day! They were running a special deal: a 15% discount on any massage worth over $50 between 12:00 PM and 5:00 PM. They also had a sweet perk for anyone getting a massage after 6:00 PM—you got to take home a lamp! The owner showed me pictures of other clients who'd picked one out, and he was kind enough to spoil me with one, too. I went home with one of the biggest lamps they had—it was almost as tall as me! While I waited, I admired the traditional Chinese jewelry they sold, with pieces made from beautiful beads and authentic jade. Soon enough, it was time for...

Shopping at Dio and Lucky Twins

 Story Time: Shopping at Dio in the hermitage mall and visiting Lucky Twins restaurant!

Hi guys, I went to Dio in the Hermitage mall to do a little bit of shopping.  Dio or also known as DA drogisterij ( Drogisterij is dutch for drugstore) has different locations in Suriname. They are among the most well-known drugstores in this small Caribbean/South American country.  I got myself this Vogue cosmetics set for women, and I have to admit it was worth it. It smells so good and it is long-lasting. The shower foam has a nice scent to it that isn't too overwhelming. It has an affordable luxurious feel to it. If you are noticing the unicorn, it was a cute lip balm that I saw in the DIO store so I had to get it. I had already planned to write my Self-love unicorn article but I didn't notice the similarity until I finished that post just now. So I am going to enjoy using my unicorn lip balm to spoil myself.  I got myself the cherry one, although I can't really taste or smell the cherry. It does do a good job with moisturizing though.  Pretty lips deserve to stay hydrated. After that I was hungry, so we went to get some food at Lucky Twins restaurant.  I love how attractively their sweet cakes are displayed when you enter their restaurant.  We ordered shrimp and chicken tjauwmin ( fried noodles) and it tasted yummy. I would definitely recommend this, I loved the corn in it.  I made this little video for you guys, so you have an idea how what this mini adventure in my day looked like. We all get to have different adventures. Sometimes my inner woman wants to come out and shop! I guess a lot of you can relate to that, I kind of like spoiling myself with the little things. Of course, we will be also talking about keeping a healthy balance a lot on this blog in future posts. I hope you guys enjoyed this Story Time, and that you guys will like this video. Don't forget to jump onto the Story Time U.F.O. if you want to see more stories like this and until next time!  I just had so much fun writing and creating this post for you guys, and that is what makes it all worth it. I can't wait to keep sharing more with the world as I am starting to make more time to write and share my blog posts.
