Catherine

Born in Belgium and raised in South Africa, I’ve made the UK my home for many years. I learned English under African skies—hence the accent! I love travelling and am inspired by the landscapes, flavours, scents, and cultures I encounter along the way. Closer to home, I find real peace in my allotment and in foraging, where everything feels calm and grounded.
