Welcome! I’m Ruby Jarvis, a proud resident of West Coast Demerara, where the vibrant spirit of our community is as rich as the soil that nurtures it. Nestled at 16 Brickwall Street, I find joy in the simple pleasures of life—sipping on a hot cup of ginger tea while watching the sun dip below the horizon, or enjoying a plate of spicy pepperpot that connects me to my roots. Here in Essequibo, the stories of my ancestors flow as freely as the rivers that cradle our land, from the Pomeroon to the mighty Essequibo.
As a member of the Guyanese diaspora, I cherish the strong ties we maintain with friends and family abroad. Whether it’s sharing tales of our colorful festivals like Mashramani or the delicious taste of our local delicacies like roti and curry, these connections keep our culture alive even beyond our borders. I often reminisce about my family's journey, echoing sentiments shared by others—like those of my father’s family who also hailed from Guyana, and those who, like @seandefreitas2699, have returned to the land of their heritage, finding familiar experiences rooted in our collective memory.
Through my engagement with our community—both local and global—I aim to shed light on the beauty and challenges that define our country today. It’s crucial to recognize that while Guyana stands at a crossroads with its newfound oil wealth, the realities on the ground are complex, as noted by many who share their thoughts from their perspectives. Join me in exploring the essence of Guyana, where the culture is as rich as the land, and the resilience of our people shines brightly even in challenging times.
