Greetings! My name is Shellon Billey, and I proudly call Demerara my home. Nestled in the heart of Essequibo Islands-West Demerara, I am fortunate to live in a vibrant community rich with traditions and unique cultural expressions. The warmth of my neighbors and the enchanting landscapes, from the lush banks of the Essequibo River to the bustling scenes of Uitvlugt, continually inspire me. Whether it’s sharing a plate of pepperpot during the holidays or enjoying a spontaneous lime by the river, the camaraderie of my fellow Guyanese fills my days with joy.
As a resident of Guyana, I cherish the sounds of our diverse languages and the flavors of our culinary delights, from spicy curry dishes to sweet black cake. My experiences here are intertwined with the history and resilience of our people. I often reflect on the comments from our diaspora community, highlighting the beauty of our homeland despite challenges like the rough roads that lead us to our beautiful homes. This shared journey strengthens our connection, whether we are near or far.
Through my work and daily interactions, I aim to celebrate our culture and foster connections with others who have roots in this beautiful land. I welcome you to explore our stories, engage in our traditions, and perhaps even drop by for a taste of our local cuisine. Together, we can keep the spirit of Guyana alive, no matter where we are in the world.
