Hello! My name is Owen Allen, and I proudly call Waikrebi in the Barima-Waini region of beautiful Guyana my home. As a saw operator, I spend my days working with the lush timber that our forests graciously provide. The connection I feel to my land goes beyond my profession; it’s intertwined with the flavors, traditions, and stories that make our culture so rich. Whether it’s enjoying a hearty plate of curry and roti or sharing a laugh over a game of dominoes with friends, the simple joys of life here are what keep my heart full.
Guyana isn’t just a place; it’s a vibrant community that thrives on resilience and pride. I always look forward to the love and warmth that come when I return home. My roots run deep, and I cherish the moments spent with family and friends, sharing meals made with local ingredients. The laughter and camaraderie we share remind me of the strength of our diaspora, who carry our culture proudly, even from afar. As one commenter beautifully put it, "Guyana is probably happier than America," and I couldn’t agree more—our spirit is unmatched!
Each day, I strive to embody the values of respect and kindness that I’ve learned from my upbringing. Being polite and down-to-earth has always been important to me, and I hope to inspire others in our community to do the same. Whether through my work or personal interactions, I aim to be a positive influence, sharing the beauty of our culture and fostering connections that span borders. Together, we can uplift each other and keep the spirit of Guyana alive, no matter where we are in the world.
