How was my life back home?

Known for its lustful forest, radiant sunshine, the majestic Kaieteur falls and a multi-cultured society that has six races (Land of six people, n.d.) living together, is a small country nestled among Venezuela, Brazil, Suriname and the Atlantic Ocean called Guyana. Guyana is known to be home for me. Whether it’s visiting families, picnicking at the many ecotourism resorts or taking a stroll to enjoy the fresh Atlantic Breeze, there is always something fun to do.

I resided in the capital city of Georgetown with my husband. We worked assiduously towards building our home which was equipped with all amenities and a layout customized for our pleasure and comfort. We were both employed in management positions and were earning decent salaries in addition to starting up a small business as an additional source of income.

I graduated in 2016 with the Association of Chartered, Certified Accountants (ACCA) accreditation. Being a Chartered Accountant, I gained employment in the Oil and Gas Sector.

My life was very comfortable having the privileges of doing the things I wanted without the worry or burdens of the cost. I lived a very social life with both my family and friends. I was honored to attend and host family functions regularly, which led to a strong bond of love and respect.

With all the joy, love, peace, comfort and all it entails of having a happy life I still had a dream of living in Canada. On September 1^st, 2019, we migrated to Canada and ventured off to fulfill my desire.
