Hello! I’m Merissa Calistro, a proud resident of Essequibo Mainstay Lake, nestled in the heart of the Pomeroon-Supenaam region. Growing up along the Lower Pomeroon River, I’ve been deeply connected to the lush landscapes and vibrant communities that make our home unique. The river isn’t just a backdrop; it’s a lifeline that has shaped our culture, from fishing and farming to the vibrant traditions that we celebrate together. I often reminisce about the sweet taste of cassava bread and the rich flavors of pepperpot simmering on a Sunday afternoon.
As someone who cherishes my Guyanese roots, I find joy in sharing our stories and heritage with the diaspora community. Whether it’s discussing the ancient legends of our ancestors or the significance of communal gatherings, I believe our culture thrives through connection—both at home and abroad. It’s bittersweet to witness the changes in our land, especially with the recent influx of oil wealth and the disparities it brings. However, I remain hopeful that we can preserve the essence of our community amidst these transformations.
When I’m not exploring the beautiful trails of the Essequibo or spending time with family, I’m actively engaged in promoting local artisans and farmers. I believe in uplifting our voices and ensuring that the rich history of our region, from the lost continent of Mu to the bustling markets of Hackney, is celebrated and honored. Join me as I continue to weave together the stories of our people, our struggles, and our triumphs, both here in Guyana and in the broader diaspora.
