You know I chuckled at the socks part. Lol!

You know, they kept asking me if my feet/toes were warm enough and that's when I told them that I had two pairs on. In Suriname I suffered from cold hands and feet, even when the rest of my body was hot, so I had to do implement some extra measures to help against the colder climate.

I’ve always heard about Christmas markets but have never been to one.

They tried two have Christmas fairs in Suriname and I think it was organized two times, but never been myself.
