HUMMING OF THE BIRD

Instagram

In England it's customary to bring your builders copious amounts of tea (and biscuits, if you want to get in their good books). The builders here brought fresh eddo leaf, so I made juice and this chocolate & almond cake. They left promising to "bring two papaw Monday". The Guyanese deep love for sharing cooking and fruit & veg has to be my favourite custom!

In the blender today: banana, saijan (moringa) leaves, coconut water. Hoping it will power me through an ever-growing pile of marking. These local bottles of coconut water are good and really easy to freeze and defrost but I probably should invest in a big reusable container... #saijan #moringa #banana #coconutwater #guyana #guyanaforfood #guyanaforhealth

First taste of Ebesowàna dried watermelon slices 🍉🍉🍉 Purchased for $600 a pack from Beacon Cafe on Carmichael Street in GT. The pieces were stuck together in the packet (maybe in the heat) but peeling them off to taste I was surprised at the deep, delicious flavour - almost like a chewy chocolate or dried figs. Pick some up and try for yourself! Kudos to the farmer behind the label, Andrew Campbell 👌🌱 #georgetown #guyana #guyanaforfood #watermelon #driedfruit

Surprisingly delicious! #cassavapizza #breakfast #crispy #cassavabread #bolangi #tomato #guyana

One of my fave sights in Guyana: a staircase to nowhere made for gyaffing or taking two beer on a warm evening 🍺🍺 #mahdia #guyana #stairs #liming

Had the chance to go to Mahdia this weekend with two filmmakers who are hoping to shoot a short drama there later in the year. Such an amazing potential location - and great to hear stories from pork knockers and local residents alike on how much has changed and the challenges that lie ahead - from climate change to mercury-free mining. #mahdia #guyana #recce #film #gold #diamonds #eldorado #ontheroadagain

Very happy with my new artwork, 'Gaze' by the very talented @vashpers.art ✒ It's so intricate and beautiful. I 'met' it at International Women's Day where Vash had kindly lent the work to brighten up the Women's Wednesdays stall and after a long, busy week of work this is my reward to myself. Can't think of a better treat than being able to buy a piece of art you love from time to time. #guyaneseartist #supportartists #guyana #art #pendrawing
