Life In Paramakatoi - A Quiet, Scenic Retreat in the Heart of Region Eight (8)
Paramakatoi (sometimes spelled Paramakotoi) is a town in Potaro-Siparuni (Region 8) of Guyana. This place is extremely remote and the way of life is calm and simple. If you’d ever like a place to “get away” and be serene, then this is the place; it carries you way back in time where you can witness subsistence living. There are no restaurants and the main form of transportation is walking. Walking for two days through the rainforest to go to a neighbouring location is considered normal. The people are friendly and everyone is expected to be greeted with a “good day, sir/miss”.
