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.

Road Trip From Commewijne To Saramacca

 Road Trip From Commewijne To Saramacca

" Saramacca River Sign"




Welcome back, friends! Hop on board because we are going on a Road Trip. For one of our clients, we did some repairs in Saramacca. I seized the opportunity to share a piece of Suriname with my readers. Saramacca is one of the 10 districts in Suriname. This district is popular for its agriculture. We went with the scooter and turned it into an adventure. Our trip started in Commewijne where we were finishing another project. After doing the work our stomachs were rumbling and demanding some good food. We stopped at the P&G roti shop. I love how this restaurant has upgraded through the years. You can dine in the restaurant or outside on their terras. The Roti arrived warm and hit the spot! With fresh energy, we started our journey to Saramacca. I recorded a vlog of our Road Trip to share with you guys. I wanted to film the river banks, but when we drove up with our scooter we noticed that some people were in the middle of a spiritual bath. That was a good enough reason for us to turn around and give them their privacy. Even these practices are normal in a multi-cultural country like Suriname. On the other side of the bridge, I still managed to get a nice shot of the Saramacca River. Admiring nature in this part of South America brings peace to the mind. Because of the tropical heat, we stopped at a few stores to get a cold drink. It's a good thing that there are many stores on this route. Are you planning on traveling soon?
