Greetings from the vibrant shores of West Coast Demerara! My name is Leenawattie Puran-Singh, and I am a proud resident of the Essequibo Islands-West Demerara region. Growing up amidst the lush landscapes and rich cultural heritage of Guyana has instilled in me a deep appreciation for our diverse traditions, from our delicious culinary staples like pepperpot and roti to the warmth of our community gatherings. I believe that food is not just sustenance; it is a way to connect with our roots and share our stories, whether it’s enjoying mango sour or savouring a good bowl of curry.
As a member of the Guyanese diaspora, I hold dear the connections we share, both at home and abroad. I often reflect on the sentiments of our community: the blend of cultures and the mutual support we provide each other. Whether it’s reaching out to our Hindu brothers and sisters or reminiscing about the laughter shared during family feasts, I find joy in the bonds that tie us together, no matter where we are in the world. If you ever find yourself in Guyana, I encourage you to visit our local schools and markets to truly experience the heart and soul of our nation.
In my daily life, I strive to embody the spirit of hospitality inherent to our culture. I am always excited to meet new people and share the beauty of our land, from the serene beaches to the bustling streets of Georgetown. My hope is that through our stories and shared experiences, we can continue to foster a sense of belonging and pride in our Guyanese identity, no matter where life takes us.
