About SELMO MATTHEWS

About Selmo Matthews

Greetings! My name is Selmo Matthews, a proud miner from the heart of Backdam in the Barima-Waini region of Guyana. Nestled among lush rainforest and winding rivers, this vibrant community is where I call home. The spirit of the land runs deep in my veins, from the echoing sounds of the waterfalls to the taste of fresh pepperpot on a Sunday morning. I cherish the rich heritage of my ancestors, which includes a blend of Indigenous, African, and East Indian cultures, creating a unique fabric that defines our daily lives.

As a dedicated miner, I take pride in contributing to the development of our great nation. Mining is not just a job; it's part of our livelihoods and a way to provide for our families. I believe that with the right balance of responsibility and respect for our natural resources, we can ensure that future generations can thrive in Guyana. My experiences have taught me the importance of community, and I always strive to lift those around me, whether through sharing stories or supporting local initiatives. Together, we can build a future that reflects the warmth of our culture and the strength of our people.

In my spare time, you can find me exploring the breathtaking landscapes of Guyana, whether it's a trek through the rainforest or a relaxing day by the Essequibo River. I often connect with fellow Guyanese across the diaspora, sharing tales of home and the journey we each undertake. From the bustling streets of Georgetown to the peaceful backroads of our villages, I am filled with pride knowing that we all carry a piece of our homeland with us. One Guyana, united in spirit and purpose! 🇬🇾
