About Omesh Ramotar

Hello! I’m Omesh Ramotar, a proud resident of Demerara, where the rhythmic sounds of the Pomeroon River flow through my life. Living at 101 Claybrick Road, I cherish the vibrant culture and rich traditions of my homeland. From the bustling markets filled with the aroma of fresh roti to the serene sunsets over the river, every day here is a reminder of our beautiful landscape and the warmth of our community. I hold dear the memories of family gatherings sharing delicious meals and recounting stories of our ancestors from the lush banks of the Pomeroon River.

As a member of the Guyanese diaspora, I understand the unique bond that ties us to our roots, no matter where life takes us. I often reminisce about the flavors of homemade dishes like pepper pot and the sweet taste of sugar cake, which is a staple during festivities. It’s these simple pleasures that connect us, whether we are in Guyana or across the globe, celebrating our heritage together. Like my friends and family, I believe in the importance of staying true to our culture, fostering a sense of belonging, and supporting each other through thick and thin. As one of my friends said, “Thanks for seeing the true in need more people like you 1love.”

I invite you to share in our culture and experience the richness of Guyana with me. Whether you are from the Upper Pomeroon or have roots that stretch across the Caribbean, our shared experiences are what make us one. Let’s reconnect, celebrate our heritage, and ensure that the spirit of Guyana continues to thrive, whether through stories, food, or community gatherings. After all, as we say, “This is my Guyana!”
