Greetings! I’m Pariag Ramlochan, a proud fisherman hailing from the vibrant community of Vriesland on the West Bank of Essequibo. Nestled along the banks of the Demerara River, my home is a place where the rhythm of life flows as smoothly as the water itself. Fishing isn’t just my occupation; it’s a deep-rooted tradition in my family, where we honor age-old practices while embracing innovations that allow us to thrive in a changing world.
Every day, I venture out onto the waters, surrounded by the natural beauty of Guyana, from the lush greenery to the sounds of the wildlife. The joy of sharing freshly caught fish with my family and friends, accompanied by a hot plate of pepperpot or a bowl of cassava, is a cherished part of our local culture. I often reminisce about the stories shared over meals, connecting me to the rich heritage of our people and the spirited diaspora that extends all the way to places like Canada, the USA, and Brazil. It’s uplifting to see fellow Guyanese flourishing abroad and celebrating our roots, as evidenced by the warm greetings I receive from viewers around the world.
As I navigate the waters of the Demerara, I’m also aware of the challenges facing our beloved homeland, from environmental issues to the ongoing conversations about our natural resources. Yet, I remain hopeful for Guyana’s future, where every individual can enjoy the fruits of our labor, and the beauty of our land is preserved for generations to come. Join me in celebrating the resilience and determination of our people, as we strive to ensure that Guyana truly goes places.
