We don't have natural disasters over here. Guyana is below sea level and out of the path of the hurricanes. The Guiana Shield is a large rock extending from Venezuela all the way to French Guiana, and this provides a stable base - so no earthquakes.

We do get some flooding on the coastal plain after heavy rain for multiple days, but by and large there are no sort of natural disasters there.

But we have politicians. Nuf said.

Preparedness culture does not really exist here. Guyana is one of the poorest countries (politicians again - we have resources aplenty) in the world, as a result for most people, everyday living is a survival challenge.

That said, I love it here. The people are friendly and the outdoors is lots of fun.

Nas.
