Beni's Christmas Palace In Suriname

 Beni's Christmas Palace In Suriname Just like in the photo above this text, I am okay but I am not completely okay. I feel awful on the inside and for a long time it was difficult to find the motivation to return to blogging.  Tomorrow's Christmas, so I mustered all of my strength to at least finish another episode. I've been gone for a while because as usual, life got hectic. But this time in a bad way! As you guys know a while ago I started a company in Suriname. Most of my days were spent creating Story Time episodes, working, doing social work or going along to get a taste of the field.  When we go to clients, sometimes I get to see awesome places. Or in between on our journeys we tend to make pitstops. This Story Time episode is supposed to be about my visit to Beni's Christmas palace. But let me tell you about what happened after that first. Just so you can understand how my Christmas spirit, transformed in the energy of mourning. People see the good, but I'l...

Paint Shopping And Food Stop At Warung Resa

 Paint Shopping And Food Stop At Warung Resa

"Goedangan, a popular Surinamese Javanese Dish"



Hello Story Time friends, welcome back! I'm taking you along on another vlog. This video was made on a hectic day. I split the content of my adventures into different parts. So make sure you subscribe and stay tuned. There are a lot of stories that I still have to finish. I wish I had more time for my creative projects. But with my lifestyle in Suriname that is not realistic! Anyway, we're going paint shopping in different stores. I visited HJ De Vries, Malhoe's Building Materials, and a Historex retailer. When we were done combing through stores for our project, I was hungry and tired! So we decided to go to Warung Resa. Their Javanese food reminds me of my late grandmother's and aunt's cooking. It's flavorful and authentic. We had the Gudanang and the Long Tong Tahoe. Both are traditional dishes in Javanese culture.

"Long Tong Tahoe From Warung Resa"

Long Tong Tahoe is made with bean sprouts, Tahoe, and chicken. It's then drizzled with a spicy ketjap sambal. The Gudanang triggered memories of the ceremonies held at my grandparent's house. It was made during holidays like Eid or when they made Gendureng because someone died.  Gudanang is a sweet and spicy dish. It's made with bean sprouts, long beans, and sweet coconut. The coconut meat is cooked in sugar and pepper. It's a healthy dish mostly served with egg and chicken. I love pouring peanut sambal over my Gudanang. Enjoy the vlog guys and I hope to see you soon! Wish me luck on my adventures. I look forward to sharing more adventures with you in the future! Lots of love from tropical Suriname.💓 Are you planning your vacation? Visit Expedia for inspiration!
