Hello! I’m Lester Marshall, a proud cobbler residing in the vibrant community of Demerara, specifically at Vauxhall Canal No. 1 in the Essequibo Islands-West Demerara region. My heart belongs to this beautiful country, where the lush landscapes and rich cultures come together. Growing up near the Pomeroon River and enjoying fresh seafood, like the celebrated garlic butter shrimp, has instilled in me a deep appreciation for our diverse culinary heritage.
The experience of living through the political upheaval of the past has shaped my perspective and resilience. As many Indo-Guyanese families, mine has felt the pull of diaspora, with relatives scattered across the USA, Canada, and the UK. Yet, no matter where we are, the warmth of our traditions—whether it's celebrating Phagwah or sharing stories of our ancestors from regions like Manawarin—keeps us connected to our roots.
As a cobbler, I take pride in my craft, ensuring that each pair of shoes represents not just functionality but also the spirit of our community. I believe in the power of local businesses and the importance of preserving our cultural identity. Whether I’m fixing shoes for my neighbors or sharing a laugh at the market, I carry the essence of Guyana with me. Let's keep celebrating our unique heritage together!
