Greetings! My name is Tasleema Fareed, and I proudly call Demerara 04 Mon Bijou Canal No.1 home. Nestled amidst the lush landscapes and vibrant communities of Guyana, I find inspiration in the rhythms of river life and the rich cultural tapestry that our nation offers. Whether it’s a casual walk by the Pomeroon River, where the spirit of our ancestors lingers, or gathering with family for a hearty meal of dhal puri and curry, my life here is deeply intertwined with our traditions and the warmth of our people.
As a resident of the Essequibo Islands-West Demerara region, I cherish the simplicity of our daily lives, yet I am also keenly aware of the aspirations of our diaspora. I understand the mix of pride and concern that comes with being from a place that outsiders might view differently. To those who suggest visiting our beloved homeland, I say, “Es-eh-key-bow!” – come and experience the essence of Guyana for yourself, from the sloths hanging lazily in the trees to the vibrant markets bursting with life and flavor.
My journey is a celebration of our shared history and the diverse voices of our community. I welcome conversations about our culture, our struggles, and our triumphs. Whether you’re a neighbor or a friend from afar, let’s connect over a love for our homeland and the unique stories that unite us, no matter where we are in the world.
