If I would recommend anyone on their trip abroad for old year, I would advice Suriname. I bet there is no place like Suriname when it comes to celebrating old year. It's one time of year I think it tops all other tourist destinations. And it is not because I am a citizen of Suriname but because many people from Europe and even the US have stated that indeed Suriname is unique when it comes to old year. An example: Suriname imports fireworks on a large scale which makes the country the biggest firework consumer on the South American continent ( almost US$ 4,- a person), a total of US$ 2 million just on the import of fireworks for a population of just half a million people.

That was just an update on the way we celebrate old year. As i promised I will be keeping you informed on the old year's situation as it unfolds and keep in mind that I will be posting more pictures of the celebration in Suriname (as you enjoy the ones below)

ciao for now
