Hello! I’m Rowena Henry-Thomas, a proud housewife from the heart of Essequibo Islands-West Demerara, where the lush landscapes meet vibrant culture. Living at 5 Inner Stanleystown, I cherish the simple pleasures of life, from cooking up a storm with mouthwatering dishes like pepperpot and metemgee to enjoying the warmth of family gatherings. The sweet aroma of fresh cassava pone often fills my home, a reminder of our rich culinary heritage that connects us to our roots.
As a member of the Guyanese diaspora, I feel a deep connection to our homeland, even from afar. I often find myself reminiscing about the beautiful Pomeroon River and the lively markets bustling with local produce. Despite the challenges we face, including the high cost of living that many of us have to navigate, I remain hopeful. We share a resilient spirit, finding joy in community events and supporting each other through thick and thin, whether it's participating in clean-up initiatives or simply sharing a laugh over our everyday struggles.
Though some say they wouldn’t return to Guyana if offered, I believe our country holds a special place in our hearts. It’s more than just a location; it’s a culture steeped in history and warmth, filled with our rich traditions and diverse stories. As I embrace my life here, I look forward to creating memories that will one day inspire future generations, proving that no matter where we go, we carry the essence of Guyana with us.
