Australian vlogger visits Georgetown for one day (in a Tuk Tuk, with his dog), can't find accomodations, calls it the worst city in South America
Seems like it got him a decently high number of views already. It's interesting to note the experiences of a foreigner in the city, but I think anyone visiting the country should check out the countryside instead.
Oh well, nothing lost by dissuading foreigners from coming. Let's put it this way- if foreigners came and were comfortable, first some would decide to buy up some properties. Then inflation would be even higher. Then they would self segregate...... Following this, the inevitable, Epstein's buddies would make their own little base in the country and meddle more in the society at a greater level than what they've already done from abroad. That doesn't sound too good.
The video itself was pretty lame and he didn't check out much at all, just drove around for a few hours.
Guyana does clearly need improvements and the government should budget for a designated safe / clean "downtown area", ie: a renovated zone with a proper setting that's an acceptable showcase for international visitors.
It doesn't take much to have one pedestrian street that's closed off from vehicles, and that has upgraded modern storefronts and architecture.

Tint Waiver
Anybody able to get a medical person or ophthalmologist to give them a medical assessment so you can get the tint waiver? Every eye place I call from the minute you mention the word "tint" they act as if they don't even offer regular eye services and they business closed down. A disgrace. I have a legit condition - photo sensitivity that needs me to get a letter. But it has to be from a doctor in Guyana. Really sucks. All of these eye places. Optique, Dr Jain. Balwant Singh. Modern eye optical. Who else?

Moving to Guyana.
Hey everyone, planning to move to Guyana in a year, most likely somewhere in the rural Berbice river/coast area (like Sisters Village or around there).The plan is pretty straightforward: I want a quiet, self-sufficient life. I want to set up a small homestead, get some chickens, grow my own food, and make a living working remotely as a 3D modeler (making game assets, buildings, interiors, and props for foreign clients). Basically, cash comes in USD/Euro over the net, I spend it locally, and keep things quiet with no flexing and zero drama.
Curious about a few real things:
If I show up at 21, hang out at my place working on a PC all day, and try to build a farm—how is the village going to react? Is "guy making video game things in the village" going to sound too weird, or do people generally not care as long as I'm cool and mind my own business?
How hard is it for a foreigner to come in, buy a spot, find a few local guys to help with fencing or fixing up a place, and fit in smoothly without getting targeted as an easy mark?
Any honest feedback, advice, or warnings from people who know the area are super welcome.

INDIA vs JAPAN: Historic First Ever Men’s T20 Match To Be Played In Sano, As A Part Of The Diplomatic “Sport 75”
sportscapemagazine.comFinding Partners & Advisors
Hey everyone,
Long-time observer of Guyana's story, first-time visitor coming in the next couple of months. I'm based overseas, work as a private investor, and I've been following what's been happening here with genuine fascination for a while now.
The trip is partly tourism - I've wanted to see the country properly for years - but I'm also coming with a serious interest in understanding the investment landscape firsthand. I've done plenty of reading, but I know that nothing replaces actual conversations with people who live and work there.
What I'm looking for:
- People on the ground who understand how business actually works in Guyana, not the government brochure version, but the real version
- Potential partners or connectors in sectors like real estate, hospitality, agriculture, services, or really anything that's growing
- Honest perspectives - what's working, what's overhyped, where the genuine opportunities are, and where the pitfalls are that outsiders consistently miss
- Anyone who's helped foreign investors navigate the market before, or who'd be interested in doing so
If you're a local entrepreneur, a professional, someone working in a relevant sector, or just someone who knows the country well and wants to have a coffee when I'm in Georgetown, I'd love to hear from you.
DM me or drop a comment. Happy to share more about my background privately.

I been wondering if there is a Guyanese social club in Toronto
r/Guyana • u/Recording_Massive • 6d ago
Guyanese in Toronto
I was born and raised in Toronto but love my caribbean music. My parents are Guyanese. I moved to the GTA area 10 years ago and don’t have many Caribbean friends who enjoy going to a bar and listening to music. I don’t drink, but I’ll drive anywhere to meet some like minded people. Outside of Chutney, Soca, Dancehall and Reggae, I am an entrepreneur and would not mind finding similar people with the same ambitions but also knows how to have fun while being responsible (I hate babysitting people).
Let me know your go to spots!

Euro-Guyana Classical Music and Opera Association Inc launched, eyes October concert
A new non-profit dedicated to classical music and opera has been formally incorporated in Guyana, backed by EU Ambassador Luca Pierantoni and built on a motto borrowed from philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche: “Without music, life would be a mistake.”
The Euro-Guyana Classical Music and Opera Association Inc, which began earlier this year, was incorporated under the Companies Act of Guyana exclusively for charitable, educational, cultural and artistic purposes.
The Association’s strategic mandate includes performances and cultural exchange, staging concerts, recitals, festivals, competitions and opera productions that foster intercultural dialogue between Guyanese and European artists and institutions.
It also includes music education and community outreach, providing structured educational programmes in schools and local communities, including masterclasses, lectures and workshops.

Kitten Stuff (Important)
Kitten, about 4-5 days old, aprox 3-4 inches in length, eyes are still dark blue, very light weight, and obviously not fed. I have it right now trying to keep it warm before further issues arise. Blood pressure must be low enough already.
I have no KMR or ingredients to make a temporary replacement just for tomorrow. Warmth is all I can give before it dies. I have no idea who I can bring it to at a time like this, but I'm in Anna Regina.
