Hello! My name is Jairam Ramlochan, and I am a fisherman from the vibrant community of West Coast Demerara, specifically in the 222 Area G, De Willem. Growing up along the Essequibo River, I have always felt a deep connection to the water and its rich bounty. Fishing isn't just my job; it's a way of life that brings me closer to my roots. I often reflect on the stories my elders shared about the rivers, the land, and the culture that defines us as Guyanese. From the hustle and bustle of the markets to the calm of the riverbanks, each day is a reminder of the warmth and resilience of our people.
My passion for food is as strong as my love for fishing. Nothing beats the taste of a freshly caught fish, seasoned with local spices and enjoyed with a side of fried rice or chow mein. I often invite friends and family over to share meals that evoke nostalgia for our homeland. For those of you in the diaspora, I encourage you to try cooking your favorite Guyanese dishes! Whether it's the curry, the stew, or that perfect plate of fried rice, these flavors connect us all, no matter where we are in the world.
As a proud Guyanese, I cherish the memories of festivals and gatherings, especially during River Daylight at St. Monica, where we celebrate our heritage and the beauty of our country. It's these moments that remind us of our roots and the importance of community. I look forward to sharing my experiences and hearing your stories as we bridge the gap between home and abroad.
