Stories, history, and
what's happening now.
This is where the deeper stuff lives — recipes passed down, oral histories, profiles of people doing something worth noticing right now, and everything in between. Some of it's decades old. Some of it happened last month. All of it's worth a few minutes of your time.
New pieces post as we have them — not on a fixed schedule, just when there's something worth sharing.
Looking for event announcements and bigger news instead? That lives in our newsletter, down in the footer.

Caryl Graauw
Pillar of the Community Award — 2025
Caryl served as Vice Consul of Suriname from 1991 to 2003, and in 1994, he was the one who gave SANI the chance to proclaim our organization at the Consulate — the moment that launched everything that followed. For decades since, he's organized football tournaments, music groups, and cultural events, and guided three different Surinamese presidents through visits to the U.S.
