Hey hey I'm a subscriber from Guyana........ following u since Africa

Very Cool Tommy. I was just going to send you a message to suggest Guyana. If you're still there I have some friends in Georgetown who have the first hotel (Takutu Hotel) in Lethem up north in the Savannahs and near the Amazon at the end of what used to be considered the worst of all worst roads in the world. They are great hosts and can provide some fun and historical Guynese perspectives. Call the Takutu Hotel and ask to be put through to Morsha, the owner and she can set you up with some personalities and adventures. Her family is well known and connected and she used to be an attorney for the President and Prime Minister and would love to share more about Guyana.

The dynamics of the the Afro-Guyanese, Amerindian, East Indian, Chinese, British and Portuguese cultures and history include unique aspects of interdependence and even political incursions and a small scale race war. Morsha and others can tell of when a paramilitary group of insurrectionists from Venezuela flew in and attempted to claim the area and commit genocide in the process. She and her family fled their hotel and hid under weeds in the river to avoid being slaughtered.

I can promise you that you will definitely enjoy it there as well. The culture and everything in Trinidad is mostly similar to that of Guyana.

I think there are as many Guyanese folks in Queens as in Georgetown. & they are great people always bringing good vibes.

Guyana has interesting places to visit, such as: Port Kaituma, (Jonestown, where the largest suicide occurred in 1978), the border town of Baramita and the shores of Shell Beach. And to the southwest in Region 7: Paruima village (where there are impressive waterfalls such as: Uchii Falls, Panacima Falls and Attabrau Falls), as well as the Amerindian villages of Phillipai and Opadai (in the vicinity of Mount Roraima) 😉

This is very cool, awesome destination pick. So intriguing.

This is really fascinating to me. I am a white Canadian, but my family came from Guyana just before independence and settled in Canada. I heard stories about Guyana growing up and have seen photos of Georgetown back in the 1950s. Growing up in the 90s and early 2000s, I had a lot of Indo-Guyanese friends in Toronto, most of which thought it was bizarre that a white person's family could have come from Guyana, although to their parents, it was nothing out of the ordinary. Guyana was, at one time, a very very diverse nation, but I think that has changed. I would really like to visit some day. It's one of these countries that you literally hear nothing about at all - it's almost as though they are completely cut off from the rest of us. It's unfortunate - such amazing people and amazing culture.

I told many people that Guyana at one time had a white population. I grew up with white people in Guyana. My father was white and black. I even mention it on this post that at one time the white population in Guyana had swell to about 12% if you factor in the portorguese. When blacks and Indians started to fight for political power in 1960s, white people just pack their bags and left Guyana, and the country never recover from their exodus, because they took all their money and expertise.

Also Portuguese, Dutch and Irish ancestry. I don't look Indian by any means, but the history of Guyana and its mixing of populations is present in my blood like it is in that of other families. I have listened to the current President of Guyana speak and from time to time, follow what's happening there.
