Greetings from Barima-Waini! I’m Deborah Peters, a proud resident of Mission, where the vibrant culture of Guyana thrives. Nestled along the stunning banks of the Barima River, our community is rich with traditions that celebrate our diverse heritage—from the rhythmic beats of the tambourine during festivals to the delicious aroma of pepperpot wafting through our homes. I cherish sharing my experiences with food, especially indulging in local favorites like metemgee and cassava bread, which highlight the incredible bounty of our land.
Living here, I’ve developed a strong connection to my roots and the diaspora community abroad. I often engage with friends and family who have ventured overseas, and we reminisce about the beauty of our homeland, from the lush green jungles to the majestic Kaieteur Falls. I believe it’s essential to showcase the authentic side of Guyana, and I’m always eager to promote our unique culture, which often surprises those who perceive our country through a narrow lens.
As a resident, I often find myself answering questions about daily life here, including how we enjoy street-side juices and ice, nurturing our “cast-iron stomachs” in the process! I love connecting with others who share an appreciation for our vibrant lifestyle, and I’m dedicated to uplifting our community, one story at a time. Join me in celebrating the essence of Guyana, where every smile and shared meal tells a story of resilience, warmth, and unity.
