Greetings! My name is Sheamba Johnson, and I proudly call the vibrant West Coast Demerara my home. Living in the picturesque Essequibo Islands-West Demerara region, I am surrounded by the natural beauty of our land, from the lush green landscapes to the stunning coastal views. The warmth of the local community reminds me of the Guyanese spirit, where every gathering feels like a family reunion, and laughter echoes through the air like the sweet melodies of our beloved folk songs.
As a resident of Guyana, I cherish the rich cultural heritage that defines our nation. From indulging in a plate of pepperpot during the holiday season to enjoying a refreshing bowl of cook-up rice on a Sunday, our food tells stories that connect us to our roots. I take pride in being part of a culture that is not only steeped in history but also dynamically evolving, drawing influences from both South America and the Caribbean. Like many in the diaspora, I often reminisce about the vibrant markets and the sound of the river grating as it flows through our communities — a true snapshot of life here.
As Guyana continues to grow and develop, especially with the exciting changes on the horizon, I remain optimistic and passionate about contributing to my community. Whether it’s sharing stories with fellow Guyanese or engaging with friends who’ve traveled back to our homeland, I am always ready to celebrate our unique identity and the diverse experiences that come with it. After all, to be Guyanese is to carry a piece of our beautiful landscape, culture, and spirit wherever we go!
