Welcome! I’m Rookmin Gobin, a proud Guyanese resident living on the vibrant West Coast of Demerara, specifically at 59 Gas Station Street. Our community is rich in culture, with flavors and traditions that truly reflect the heart of Guyana. From the bustling markets in Parika to the serene beauty of the Essequibo Islands, I cherish every moment spent in this beautiful part of our beloved country. Food plays a significant role in our culture—whether it’s the savory aroma of pepperpot during Christmas or the comforting taste of cook-up rice on a Sunday, I believe that sharing a meal brings us together amidst our diverse backgrounds.
As someone deeply connected to the Guyanese diaspora, I understand the challenges and joys of migration. Many of us carry our cultural roots close, whether we're sharing stories of home across borders or savoring a plate of dhal and rice that reminds us of our heritage. It’s fascinating to see how our collective experiences shape our identities, as we find a sense of belonging wherever we are. Just as Rihanna has built her brand in the U.S. while keeping her Caribbean identity alive, I too embrace my Guyanese roots while navigating life in a global context.
From my perspective, being Guyanese means embodying resilience, warmth, and a rich cultural heritage that’s worth celebrating. I invite you to join me as we explore the beauty of our homeland and the stories of our people, both here in Guyana and in the diaspora. Together, let's keep our culture alive and thriving, one shared dish or heartfelt story at a time!
