Hello! I’m Vijay Thakurdeen, a proud Guyanese from the vibrant West Coast Demerara, specifically the 540 Block X New Housing area. As a labourer, I value the strength and resilience that comes from hard work, which is a sentiment shared by many in our close-knit community. Our roots run deep, and we celebrate our rich cultural heritage through our diverse traditions, music, and, of course, our love for delicious local dishes like curry, roti, and pepperpot. Those familiar with our culinary delights know they're a testament to the fusion of cultures that make Guyana unique.
Growing up, I learned the importance of community and connection, whether it’s gathering for festivities like Mashramani or simply enjoying a day at the beautiful shores of the Essequibo River. The warmth of our people is what truly defines our identity. I often hear comments like “Yess Done know,” which encapsulate the spirit of camaraderie and shared understanding among us. It’s this sense of belonging that I cherish, and I strive to carry it with me wherever I go.
As someone who recognizes the significance of our diaspora, I believe in fostering connections with Guyanese living abroad. It’s heartening to know that Guyana’s stories and struggles resonate with many across the globe, as echoed in the supportive messages from friends around the world. Whether it’s a shoutout to our similarities with Fiji or the shared history of indentured labor, each connection reinforces our identity and pride as Guyanese. Love to all who share our journey!
