Summary
[edit]
| Description |
Crossing the rapids on the upper-Saramacca river (Suriname). It takes a few days by such a boat before you reach the first road again. (Because of the strength of these rapids, whenever I came back from such a river trip into the city I had lost my footwear). Along these rivers are Maroon villages, i.e. villages of descendants of 18th Century run-away slaves. Unlike in Brazil or Jamaica, some 20,000 Maroons are still living in Suriname 's rainforest having retained their most original and traditional Afro-American culture. (The damage on the photo/negative is the result of the corrosion inside my camera's film transport mechanism after a few days of similar wet circumstances.)
