Fair warning it will be about anything and everything in no particular order. Posts will be about life, current affairs, politics and issues pertaining to Guyana, food and anything else that takes my fancy.

My affinity for the written word no doubt began as a child as I sat patiently with my father while he solved the daily crossword. It continued when he set me the task of reading to him the daily newspapers. Thus, it was unsurprising that I became interested in journalism and later joined the Stabroek News newspaper when it was just a bi-weekly publication. Journalism and communication studies were pursued at the tertiary level. I am alum of the University of Guyana, York University and a member of Golden Key International Honour Society.

For the non-Guyanese reading this blog, Bourda Green as it was known, is a swath of land located in central Georgetown bordered by Church Street and North Road, just north of one of the busiest markets. It was an open field famous for the political meetings and rallies held on its grass beginning in the 1940s and 1950s. Also, it was from there many a protest march began. It was later re-named Merriman's Mall. However, in our household it remained Bourda Green a symbol of resistance where the ordinary man had his say. Today, it is divided into sections. It is home to vendors, a casino's parking lot, and the mostly unkept sections of the Indian Arrival monument and a vacant area.
