Suriname - A Bouquet of Ethnicities
Please note that all my family, friends and people in my snippets, gave me verbal permission to post all the video's I have shot about them on my channel called Peggy's world.
I have build my career on this, all video's and comments of my friends or ex friends are authentic and kind there is no liability risk, nothing
in the videos that can harm them, remember I am loving and most of all .... forgiving.
Peggy’s story untold = Peggy’s life not lived!
Peggy's World is my Autobiography made with videos.
In Peggy's world, you can learn everything about my life, and get to know the real me.
From the tiny hut where I was born, thru my childhood in Suriname, on to my life as a teen in the Netherlands, and to my life as a grown-up (not that I have) in the USA.
I share my deepest thoughts and emotions, my travels, my fun moments, my personal victories, even my philosophy on life and other bits of wisdom.
While I take you on my life's journey, there will be moments that are, jaw-dropping, educational, and even some, that will bring back emotions you had forgotten. Mostly it will be entertaining
The people that appear in my videos are my friends, family, and loved ones, who generously gave me permission to share these moments with you.
The videos are uncut and raw, not scripted...and yes, there are bloopers, because, I feel like sometimes my life is one big blooper.
I am not perfect, but then again who is?

-
Dead Mother fucker
The piranha is ready to be cooked, they are scaled and therefore kosher, I doubt it if a meat eating fish is kosher. For me a kosher fish is like a test that's its good to eat for me or not. I am very allergic, so this is for me a good way to test what I can eat or not....because I am certainly ...
