Greetings! I’m Alicia Cheong, a proud resident of the Essequibo Islands-West Demerara, living in the vibrant community of Demerara 1 at L’Heureuse Canal. My heart beats for the rich culture of Guyana, a place where the rhythms of the land resonate through our diverse food, traditions, and the warmth of our people. Whether it’s enjoying a delicious dhal puri (just remember, you can’t eat it plain! 😂) or sharing stories of our breathtaking landmarks like Kaieteur Falls, I love connecting with both locals and the Guyanese diaspora around the world.
As someone who’s deeply rooted in my community, I take pride in our shared heritage and the unique blend of cultures that define us. From the lively sounds of the Pomeroon River to the comforting familiarity of River Grant Fort Durban, each corner of our land tells a story that connects us all. I often reminisce about the days when my family gathered for meals, ensuring every bite was savored and every moment cherished. It’s this sense of belonging that I aim to foster in my interactions, whether I’m sharing culinary tips or exploring our beautiful landscapes.
Being a Guyanese means embracing our history and looking forward to the future with optimism. I’m always eager to connect with fellow Guyanese and those who appreciate our little piece of paradise. So if you ever find yourself feeling homesick or curious about our culture—know that you’re not alone; we're all in this together, proudly waving our flag high! 🌺
