Downtown Paramaribo has a distinct European feel, as they still have a large Dutch influence.
Most of the country is impossible to access due to the lack of roads. I caught a mini-van out of town to the only rainforest you can get to by car.
In the border town of Albina, the Peace Corps worker from my mini-van did some fancy work speaking Sranan Tongo to get me a good deal on a boat across to French Guiana.
Albina is where your pet parrot likely originated (after the part where they put glue on the tree in the forest to catch it). Surinamese and French Guianans like to wander the street with their captive birds.
