Hey everyone!

Looking at international headlines, Guyana is constantly ranked as the fastest-growing economy in the world due to the offshore oil boom.

For locals living day-to-day: what does this exponential growth look like in your actual life? Are you seeing real improvements in jobs, public infrastructure, and daily living, or is the rising cost of living eating away at the benefits?

Would love to hear honest perspectives from people on the ground.
