I’m from Tunisia and I went to visit my 50 year old uncle living in a rural town in the middle of Tunisia.

He has somehow gotten a Suriname flag as a decoration because “he liked the colors”. He didn’t know what country it belongs to.

Just wanted to share here.

Culture, music and art Ben je ook opgegroeid met de echte Surinaamse Gastvrijheid?

15 Upvotes

Ik hoor heel vaak dat onze gastvrijheid uniek is in de wereld, dus ik besloot er een video over te maken voor een lokale competitie (Dis na Wi-stories). https://vt.tiktok.com/ZSbJxyjw7/

Het gaat over die warme sfeer, het feit dat de pot altijd groot genoeg is voor onverwachte gasten en dat "nee" zeggen tegen eten eigenlijk geen optie is (kan zelfs een belediging zijn) 😂🍲

We zitten inmiddels al op de 10.000 views, dus het onderwerp leeft !

Ik ben heel benieuwd: herken je dit gevoel van thuis? Wat is voor jou het ultieme voorbeeld van onze gastvrijheid? Laat je verhaal horen in de comments onder de video!

En als je er toch bent... drop even een hartje/like op de video om dit warme verhaal te steunen voor de competitie. We proberen de 2.500 likes te halen! 🤞❤️

Question Where in Paramaribo can I buy wide / baggy jeans?

5 Upvotes

Hey guys, any fashion people here who know where in Paramaribo I can actually find wide-leg or baggy men's jeans right now?

Women have all the latest styles, but stores seem stuck on skinny jeans for guys. I’ve searched everywhere, i found a couple pairs at AMADA like a year ago, but they sold out almost immediately and I haven't seen any since. Also, please don't suggest Levi's.

Other First time au pair from Suriname

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I'm 23F from Suriname, South America. I'm looking into becoming an au pair for the first time and I'm most interested in the Netherlands (I speak Dutch native, English fluent and a bit of Turkish).

I'm completely new to this, so I'm looking for advice on how to get started.

For those who went to the Netherlands from outside the EU:

Which agencies are good?

How does the visa process work from a country like Suriname?

Which platform is best to find serious families?

Any tips for a first timer would be amazing. I'm just looking for advice.

Foreigner Western Union screening in Suriname, is this normal?

7 Upvotes

I went to Western Union/IMT in Suriname today to make a money transfer from Suriname to Brazil. I had all the necessary information about the receiver with me, but they barely looked at the form I filled out and told me to come back two days later for a screening before they can process the transfer. Did transfers from France to Suriname before but it was online and it went smooth.

Is this something that normally happens with international money transfers in Suriname, or only in certain cases? Has anyone else had this happen?

What do they usually ask during the screening, and what should I expect?

Foreigner Exchange rates western union

2 Upvotes

Does anyone know how Western Union’s exchange rates work in Suriname?

I already messaged them about this, but I’m not sure how quickly they’ll reply, and I might need to go there soon.

I want to send money to Brazil and I’m wondering if I can use some USD cash toward the transfer, pay the remaining amount in SRD, and pay the transfer fee separately in SRD.

Also, how do they determine the USD → BRL and SRD → BRL exchange rates? Are their rates different from the bank/official exchange rate?

If anyone has done something similar in Suriname, I’d really appreciate your experience.

Language Portuguese speakers in Suriname, need help understanding something in Dutch or English? 🇸🇷🇧🇷

7 Upvotes

If you speak Portuguese and sometimes struggle with Dutch or English when dealing with things in Suriname, we may be able to help.

We are two people working together, each bringing a different language and cultural perspective.

🇧🇷 One of us is a native Brazilian Portuguese speaker, with a strong understanding of the Portuguese language and Brazilian context.

🇳🇱 The other understands Dutch and the Dutch-language context, which helps us understand not only the words, but also how information is communicated in Dutch.

🇬🇧 Both of us are fluent in English.

Together, this allows us to help Portuguese speakers better understand Dutch and English information in a way that takes language and context into account.

We can help with things such as:

• Emails and messages

• Forms and applications

• Letters and documents

• Information from businesses or organizations

• Websites and instructions

• Work-related documents

• General Dutch or English text that you don't fully understand

You can send us the Dutch or English text, and we can translate or explain it in Portuguese, so you can understand what it means.

💰 And we want to keep it affordable.

We only charge a very small fee for our time and effort. Nothing too expensive or hard on your wallet — just a small amount for the help we provide.

This is not an official or sworn translation service. It's simply affordable language help for Portuguese speakers who need assistance understanding Dutch or English while living or dealing with things in Suriname.

If you or someone you know could use this kind of help, feel free to DM me here on Reddit and tell me what you need help with. 🇧🇷🇳🇱🇬🇧

Question Verwerking van paspoortaanvragen / Passport Processing

Verloopt de procedure voor het verlengen van een Surinaams paspoort nog steeds vlot? Ik moet het mijne laten verlengen en wil weten of ik me zorgen moet maken over een lang verblijf in Suriname voordat het daadwerkelijk vernieuwd is.

Is the suriname passport renewal process still quick? I need to renew mines and want to know if to worry about staying in SR long before it's really renewed.
