Hello! My name is Ashley Forde, and I proudly call Demerara my home. Nestled in the heart of Essequibo Islands-West Demerara, I find joy in the vibrant culture that surrounds me—a blend of traditions, languages, and flavors that define our beautiful country. Whether it's the aroma of pepperpot wafting through the air during Christmas or the sweetness of a ripe golden apple, there's a unique comfort in Guyanese cuisine that I cherish deeply. I love exploring our rich landscapes, from the serene banks of the Essequibo River to the lush greenery that welcomes you to every corner of our communities.
Having lived here all my life, I am fortunate to experience the warmth of our local fellowship, whether it’s at community gatherings or festive celebrations like Diwali and Mashramani. Each region tells its own story, and I take pride in being part of a society that values unity and resilience. Though our colonial history has shaped us, I believe we’ve moved forward with a spirit of camaraderie, especially when connecting with our diaspora. We are all part of a larger family, and it’s heartening to see how many of us carry a piece of Guyana wherever we go, forging bonds that stretch across oceans.
As a resident of Bagotville, I enjoy sharing my experiences and insights with others. My goal is to bridge the gap between cultures and showcase the beauty of Guyana, from our vibrant art scene to the tantalizing flavors of our street food. Whether you’re a fellow Guyanese or someone eager to learn more about our land, I welcome you with open arms to discover the rich heritage and enduring spirit of our beloved nation.
