Greetings! My name is Akili Nials, and I proudly call the vibrant region of Demerara, specifically Vriesland on the West Bank of Essequibo Islands-West Demerara, my home. In a country rich with diversity, my life reflects the unique blend of cultures that define Guyana. Whether I’m enjoying a plate of soft, savory chana from the famed Chana Man in Georgetown or sharing stories about our beautiful landscapes—from the serene banks of the Essequibo River to the lush rainforests—I cherish the sense of community that ties us all together.
As a resident of Guyana, I embrace the warmth and connection we have through our traditions and food. The hustle and bustle of local markets, the tantalizing aroma of curry and roti, and the vibrant celebrations tell the story of our people. I often reflect on the diaspora experience, knowing that many of us share these cherished memories while living across the globe. It’s fascinating how subjective travel can be; some may have mixed feelings about different places, but there’s a special love for our homeland that resonates in the stories we share.
My journey is intertwined with the essence of Guyanese hospitality and resilience. I believe in the importance of acknowledging our roots, whether it’s through language—like pronouncing our local names with pride—or recognizing the rich heritage that includes Indo-Guyanese, African Guyanese, and so many others. I invite you to connect with me as we navigate the beauty and challenges of our beloved Guyana, wherever we may be.
