Hello! I’m Shawn Welcome, a proud resident of Demerara, specifically from Inner Stanleytown in the Essequibo Islands-West Demerara. Growing up in this vibrant region, I’ve been deeply influenced by the rich tapestry of cultures that make up our beautiful nation. From the rhythmic sounds of calypso music during Mashramani to the tantalizing aroma of pepperpot simmering during the holidays, every day in Guyana is filled with memories that keep my heart connected to home.
As a passionate advocate for our local heritage, I love sharing stories about our iconic landmarks like the majestic Kaieteur Falls and the serene beauty of the Pomeroon River. I believe in the potential of our country, especially with the recent developments in the oil industry. Yet, I also resonate with the sentiment of many in our diaspora who fondly reminisce about their roots. There's a certain joy in hearing someone say, “Yess done know!” when they connect with our culture, just like I've seen in our community discussions.
Living in Guyana, I am committed to promoting our local cuisine, such as the ever-popular cook-up rice and delicious roti, which bring people together. I look forward to connecting with fellow Guyanese, whether at a local market or through social media, to celebrate our shared history and aspirations for the future. As we navigate change, let us keep the spirit of unity alive and always cherish our homeland, no matter where we roam.
