Hello! I’m Kathleen Helwig, a proud resident of Demerara, specifically at L’Oratorie Canal No.1, nestled within the beautiful Essequibo Islands-West Demerara. My roots are deeply intertwined with the vibrant culture of Guyana, a land where the Pomeroon River flows gracefully and where the spirit of community thrives. I cherish the memories of growing up near Kairimap Creek and the familiar sights and sounds of the bustling streets of St. Monica. These places hold a special place in my heart, reminding me of the warmth and resilience of our people.
As a lover of our local cuisine, I can’t resist a good plate of roti filled with spicy chickpeas—a dish that brings family and friends together over shared meals. Food is not just nourishment; it’s a celebration of our heritage and a way to honor our ancestors. Whether it's enjoying fresh fruits from Upper Pom River or indulging in the good banana from Monica, each bite carries a story of our land and its rich agricultural bounty.
Though I am here in Guyana, I feel a strong connection to our diaspora community, who carry the essence of our culture abroad. I often find joy in hearing from others who also call Guyana home, no matter where they are in the world. I invite you to join me in sharing our experiences, celebrating our heritage, and fostering connections that remind us of the beauty that is Guyana.
