About Me

My name is Cara. I am passionate, engaging, introverted, introspective and quite silly at times. Lover of life, good hugs, delicious food and great laughter.

I’m Afro-Caribbean and would love to meet other people from South Africa and Martinique. I’ve always lived in London so don’t know much and would love some recipes or know some classic dishes.

##EVENTS##
I’m not organising any regular events at the moment as I’m a bit busy with work and currently studying part time for postgraduate degree.

• I organise art, food, cinema and walks regular throughout the year. I try to organise events that aren’t drinking focus as I don’t like the hangovers nowadays.
