Edgar David's home

Many football players of Surinam descent are building houses in Paramaribo. This is the house of Edgar Davids, a.k.a. The Pitbull. Both taxidrivers we used when passing the house told us that most players are not popular amongst Surinamers. Only Clarence Seedorf is considered to be a normal person. Edgar Davids treats, the taxi drivers told us separately, people like dirt.
