r/Guyana

Hi all, I'm looking for a short stay hotel for a few hours around Eccles areas or close by. Cleanliness is my main concern. Any recommendations?

Hi everyone, I’m an Indo-Trinidadian filmmaker currently based in Vietnam. In late July, I’m traveling to Kolkata and Raniganj to film the first part of a trilogy: “The Absence of Origin: Fragments of a Shared Journey.”

My ancestor (Haroon Khan) left the Raniganj coal belt for the Caribbean in the late 1800s. Has anyone here successfully navigated the West Bengal State Archives or visited the Raniganj/Asansol area for family research? I’m looking for any "lessons learned" or specific contacts in India who helped you bridge the gap between the ship registers and the actual village of origin.

Hi!

I’m 17, a student at the University of Guyana (Turkeyen Campus) living in Georgetown originally from Bonfim/Lethem. I’m Guyanese and Brazilian, so I speak both English and Portuguese fluently.

I’m trying to get out of my shell a bit and be more social. Does anyone know of any active clubs that are welcoming to new people?(prefferably those with free attendance)

Also, if anyone around my age is looking for a friend to chill with or study or anything else feel free to DM me.

Hi All, I am a US Teacher considering taking a position in Guyana. I have done quite a bit of research on the city and countries history. I am a 43M, single, health conscious (yoga classes, exercise, healthy eating), enjoy the occasional night out, coffee, reading, music and enjoy embracing local culture when I travel; having lived briefly in both DR, Mexico, and Europe. I am familiar with Afro and Indo Caribbean culture; especially the use of food and herbs as medicine. I speak basic Spanish with a desire to continuing improving.

Can you give me a broad overview? Does Georgetown offer opportunities such as I listed earlier?

Thanks Guyana!

Which Chinese restaurant do you recommend on the west Bank?
