Hello! My name is Karen Elcock, and I’m proud to call West Coast Demerara my home, specifically the 251 No. 2 Scheme in Uitvlugt. As a Data Entry Clerk, I enjoy the precision and organization my job requires, but what truly fuels my passion is the vibrant culture of Guyana. From the rich flavors of pepperpot and cook-up rice to the lively sounds of a tassa band, my heart beats in tune with the rhythms of our beautiful land.
Growing up near the Essequibo Islands, I’ve developed a deep appreciation for our natural beauty, like the stunning views along the Pomeroon River and the lush greenery that surrounds us. I often reflect on the resilience of our people, shaped by a history of colonialism and the enduring spirit that connects us, both at home and in the diaspora. It’s essential to recognize our past, as it informs our present and future, especially when sharing our stories with the world.
Whether it’s enjoying a Sunday afternoon by the river with family or connecting with fellow Guyanese abroad, I love celebrating our cultural heritage. I invite you to join me in honoring our roots and exploring the incredible journey of the Guyanese people—because each of us carries a piece of our homeland, no matter where we are in the world.
