Hello! I'm Basil Matthias, a proud fisherman from the serene Island of Barima-Waini in Guyana. Growing up surrounded by the lush landscapes and vibrant rivers of my homeland, I developed a deep appreciation for the rich natural resources that our land offers. Fishing isn’t just my profession; it’s a connection to my ancestors and a way to carry on the traditions that have shaped our community. Whether it's the quiet mornings on the water or the bustling fish markets, every day brings a new opportunity to celebrate our culture.
Guyana holds a special place in my heart, especially when it comes to our culinary delights. If you ask me, there’s nothing quite like the taste of freshly caught fish prepared with local spices and served with some of the best rice and peas you’ll ever find. And let's not forget our Chinese food—there’s a reason folks say it’s the best in South America! When I’m not on the water, you can find me sharing meals with family and friends, reminiscing about the old days in British Guiana and connecting with the diaspora who share our love for this beautiful country.
As I navigate the challenges that come with being a fisherman in today’s world, I remain committed to preserving our heritage and supporting our local economy. Whether it’s participating in community events or lending a hand to a fellow fisherman, I believe in the power of unity and the strength of our Guyanese spirit. After all, we are more than just a place on the map; we are a community that thrives together, no matter where we are in the world.
