Hello! My name is Nervie John, and I’m proud to call the lush, vibrant region of Barima-Waini my home. As a farmer, I spend my days cultivating the rich soil of Guyana, growing everything from cassava to the delicious river cashew, a beloved treat that many in our community cherish. The connection to our land runs deep, and I find joy in sharing the fruits of my labor with family and friends, especially during our festive gatherings where we enjoy traditional dishes like pepperpot and cook-up rice.
Guyana, although geographically separate from the Caribbean, has a unique cultural heritage that intertwines with our Caribbean neighbors. We embrace our history and identity, celebrating our vibrant festivals, such as Mashramani, where music and dance unite us all. I often connect with fellow Guyanese in the diaspora, whether it's hearing a friend reminisce about Upper Pom or receiving messages from those in far-off places like the UK, expressing their desire to visit. It’s a constant reminder that no matter where we are, we carry our culture and spirit with us.
As I continue my work here in the beautiful islands of Barima-Waini, I look forward to fostering connections—both local and abroad. Whether sharing tips on sustainable farming or exchanging stories of our beloved Guyana, I believe that our community bonds are strengthened through these interactions. So, to my fellow Guyanese, wherever you are—let’s stay connected and celebrate our rich heritage together. 🇬🇾
