TOURISM GUYANA: Linden. Demerara – Watooka Guest House Renovations – By Steve Connolly
By Steve Connolly – November 2020
In April 2019, I had visited the area of my birth again … Linden, Guyana.
I have written about this trip in depth but now I will just focus on one topic. I had been reserved a room for a week at the Watooka Guest House in old Watooka, a historic section of Linden 65 miles up the Demerara River from the capital city of Georgetown. At my Rainforest B&B in Georgetown, I had been informed at the last minute that my reservation at Watooka had been cancelled due to renovations.

Commentary: Caribbean expressions — By Dave Martins
— By Dave Martins–
While I don’t profess to know the origins of it, I have been aware, going back to my short pants days growing up in West Dem, of my fascination with words, whether in the subjects being taught in high school at St. Stanislaus or, in later years, in the everyday conversations with folks here or across the region, ranging from Cayman in the northwest Caribbean to my homeland here. The influence is there, clear as day, in many of the songs I wrote, drawing on the lexicons of these various destinations I came to know from my musical visits.
It remains for me a repository of information that fascinates and motivates me, both for the specificity of the languages but also for the ingenuity of the people who created it. One should also emphasise, however, that this variety in Caribbean native expressions is only evident because of our geographical separations after we travel the region and come face to face with the differences.

TOURISM: MUST READ! Is Guyana Safe to Visit in 2021? – By Mathilde: – thebrokebackpacker.com
