Greetings! I’m Hemraj Ramsaroop, a proud fisherman hailing from the vibrant shores of La Grange on the West Bank of Demerara. My life revolves around the rich waters of the Essequibo River, where I spend my days casting nets and sharing stories with fellow fishers. There's something special about the camaraderie we have, fueled by our love for the land and its bounties. Whether it's a hearty serving of our beloved pepperpot or some fresh catch served with rice and peas, food plays a central role in our gatherings, reminding us of our roots and the flavors of home.
Being a Guyanese means embracing our colorful culture and the warmth of our people. We are a community that thrives on connection, not just within our borders but across the globe. I often hear conversations about how Guyanese and Trinis share similar vibes, and it's true! Whether it's the way we pronounce 'Essequibo' (Eh-see-quay-boh) or the love for our local rhythms, there’s an unbreakable bond that ties us together, even when we’re oceans apart.
As I look to the future, I’m excited about the changes coming to our beloved Guyana. With the discovery of oil, our skyline may soon mirror the ambitious heights of cities like Dubai. Yet, no matter how much we grow, my heart will always remain anchored in the simple joys of life by the river. Join me in celebrating our heritage, sharing stories, and cherishing the connections that make us who we are.
