Greetings! My name is Lakeram Sooknanan, a proud carpenter hailing from the vibrant West Coast of Demerara. Nestled along the banks of the Essequibo River, my home is a stone's throw from the lush landscapes and rich cultural heritage that define our beautiful Guyana. From the aroma of dhal and rice wafting through my kitchen to the laughter shared over a game of cricket in the village, my life is a celebration of the warmth and resilience of our people.
I take immense pride in my craft, creating functional art that reflects the spirit of our community. My work isn’t just about wood; it’s about building dreams and homes where families gather to share stories, meals, and traditions. I often reminisce about the times spent at Waiwaro Creek, where the simplicity of life reminded me of how precious our surroundings are, especially as many of our brothers and sisters in the diaspora strive to connect back to their roots.
In today's world, I believe it's essential to stay grounded in our culture while embracing change. The challenges we face, like corruption and economic hurdles, often fuel conversations that bind us together as a community. Whether it's sharing a meal or discussing our aspirations, I invite you to connect with me—because if you’re not from here, you might not fully understand, but I’m here to share the essence of Guyana with you.
