Hello! My name is Yashoda Persaud, and I proudly call the vibrant West Coast Demerara my home, specifically 36 Temple Street South. As a salesgirl, I thrive in the colorful marketplace where the aroma of our best food ever—think pepperpot and roti—fills the air, sparking conversations and connections among locals and visitors alike. It's a joy to share a slice of our culture, even if it means correcting the pronunciation of our beloved Essequibo River! After all, it's not "essekibo"; it's "essekwibo," and I love those lighthearted exchanges that keep our heritage alive.
In a place rich with history, I often reflect on our diverse roots, much like our first governor, Sir James Douglas, who represented a unique blend of cultures. As a proud Guyanese, I enjoy connecting with others, be it through sharing stories or even the occasional food recipe that reminds us of home. Whether discussing the beauty of our landscapes or the warmth of our people, I am always eager to learn from and engage with the diaspora community, where every connection reminds us of who we are.
Join me in celebrating our heritage, and let’s continue to embrace the nuances that make being Guyanese so special. From the lively markets to the serene rivers, every aspect of our culture is worth cherishing and exploring together!
