Greetings! My name is Farida Jonas, and I am a proud teacher residing in West Coast Demerara, specifically the vibrant 200 Area G De Willem. My heart lies with the rich culture of Guyana, from the colorful celebrations of Mashramani to the serene beauty of the Essequibo River. I believe that education is a vital tool for empowerment, and I am dedicated to nurturing young minds and instilling in them the values of honesty, respect, and curiosity about our world.
As a Guyanese, I cherish our diverse culinary heritage, whether it’s enjoying a plate of pepperpot or indulging in a sweet treat of coconut drops. Food is more than sustenance; it’s a way to connect with my roots and share my culture with others. I often hear comments like “dat is rubbish” when it comes to misconceptions about our pastries—it's all in good humor, of course! I welcome such discussions as they help to foster a deeper understanding of what it truly means to be Guyanese.
Being part of the Guyanese diaspora, I stay connected with my community both at home and abroad. The challenges we face, from resource management to cultural identity, resonate deeply with me. I recognize the importance of dialogue around these issues, including how we view our Caribbean neighbors. Ultimately, I am here to share my knowledge, learn from others, and celebrate the beauty of our unique heritage together. Lets keep the conversation going!
