Hello! My name is Melanie Charles, and I am proud to call Manawarin in the Barima-Waini region my home. Nestled near the lush landscapes of the rainforest and the flowing rivers, my village is a beautiful representation of Guyana's rich cultural heritage. From enjoying a plate of pepperpot during the holidays to the vibrant sounds of tassa music at community gatherings, the warmth of our traditions is deeply ingrained in my daily life.
As a resident of this unique region, I have a profound appreciation for Guyana's diverse heritage. Whether it's the mystical beauty of the Rupununi savannahs or the bustling energy of the capital, Georgetown, I love sharing stories about our breathtaking landmarks. The spirit of our people is reflected in our cuisine, music, and the resilience we show as a community. I believe it's essential to keep our traditions alive, even as many of us find ourselves in the diaspora, connecting with our roots from afar.
Engaging with fellow Guyanese and those interested in our culture brings me joy. I am always excited to meet new faces and share a taste of home, be it through a conversation about our beloved rivers like the Waipaqua or simply enjoying a moment of laughter over a cup of mauby. Together, we celebrate our identity, no matter where we are in the world.
