SUR / checkedSTORY DISPATCH#02
What happens on this route?
Crossing into a country where rainforest seems to begin at the border, Cappy discovers wooden Paramaribo, neighbouring houses of worship, left-side traffic, multilingual greetings, turtle protection, giant water lilies, and a blue frog best admired from a distance. Friends along the way teach him that a familiar animal can have a new name and that knowing less is safest when it leads you to a good guide.
The Central Suriname Nature Reserve protects about 1.6 million hectares of primary tropical forest.
