Greetings from the vibrant heart of Guyana! My name is Elaine Forde, and I proudly call West Bank Demerara home. Nestled in the lush Essequibo Islands-West Demerara region, my roots run deep in the rich culture and history of this land. Growing up near the Pomeroon River, I cherished memories of fishing with family and enjoying the bounty of our local cuisine, from savory pepperpot to sweet, comforting metemgee. My community is a tapestry of diverse backgrounds and traditions, where every gathering feels like a reunion, especially when we share stories over a plate of fresh cook-up rice.
As a resident of the Grant Victoria area, I am passionate about preserving our heritage while connecting with the Guyanese diaspora abroad. Many of us carry the spirit of home within us, whether we're in Richmond Hill or further afield, and I love hearing the stories of fellow Guyanese navigating life in new landscapes. I believe it's essential to uplift one another, sharing not just the challenges but also the triumphs that come from our shared experiences.
Every day in Bagotville reminds me of the resilience and warmth of our people. I invite you to join me in celebrating all that makes Guyana special—from our breathtaking rivers, like the Lower Pomeroon, to the laughter and stories that bind us together, no matter where we are. Let’s keep the spirit of our homeland alive and thriving, one shared moment at a time.
