Greetings! I’m Kelym Thornhill, a proud miner hailing from the lush and vibrant region of Mission in Barima-Waini, Guyana. Nestled in the heart of one of the world's most stunning landscapes, my home is surrounded by the magnificent jungle and the serene Pomeroon River, which not only provides a livelihood but also a deep appreciation for the natural wonders that our tiny nation has to offer. Whether it’s the sound of the river flowing or the thrill of exploring our rich biodiversity, I find inspiration in my environment daily.
As a Guyanese, I carry the richness of my culture with me, from the flavorful dishes like cook-up rice and pepper pot to the warmth of our community gatherings. My husband, who shares a mixed heritage with me, often marvels at the diverse cultures that converge in this land – a beautiful blend of Indigenous, Afro-Guyanese, and Indo-Guyanese traditions. We celebrate these influences through family meals and gatherings that reflect our unique story, which we love sharing with our three children, embracing both our roots and the new experiences we encounter in the diaspora.
In my work as a miner, I take pride in contributing to the local economy, while being acutely aware of the challenges that our community faces. It’s a constant reminder of the resilience within our people. As I navigate life between the lush jungles of Guyana and the vibrant diaspora community, I am dedicated to honoring my heritage and forging connections that uplift our shared experiences and hopes for the future.
