Happy Chinese New Year, my friends! I wish you all the best for the year of the Dragon. May the spirit of the Dragon guide you towards bliss and prosperity.👀😁 As a writer,  I can come up with ideas like that! And you have no idea how good it feels to unleash that creativity in my stories on this blog. Welcome to my first Story Time Production episode for the new year. We're starting it off chill. As you guys know from my previous stories, Suriname is a multi-cultural country. I think I am also evidence of that. Since I'm brown and have a Chinese family name. My roots are diverse, and in Suriname, there are flavors from each part of the world. I was busy working on Chinese New Year, but I still took the time to go out and grab some Agar Agar. It's one of my favorite desserts! To get my cup filled with the jelly treat, I went to Tian You Nieuwe Grond. They have an entire fridge dedicated to Agar Agar treats. I took a bit from all the flavors, and in the end, it was a delicious feast. I loved the combination of mango, honeydew, and strawberry flavors. But the Kiwi also hit the spot! Especially when the Surinamese heat was waiting for me outside. Whenever I travel to another place, people are always surprised at how easily I get cold. But they forget that I live on the coast of South America! Especially if you are an adventure traveler like me. Gasp, I end up in all parts of the Amazon rainforest. This year, I hope life will show me kindness and allow me to take you guys on more adventures! They also sell desserts and cakes at this Tian You store. I thought the small edible bear on the cupcake was just a cute touch. We also ordered a Honeydew milk tea with boba to go. I made a vlog of my Agar Agar stop at Tian You Nieuwegrond. I hope you guys enjoy the video. In it, you'll also see a glimpse of my book T, ' Trouble in Halloween Town. But that's for another Story Time episode. Are you planning on traveling soon?
