ABOUT ME
Hello! I am Sophie . I love everything about cars and food. I have been a car and food enthusiast since I was 7 years old when I acquired my very first toy car - a Jaguar XKE and cooked my first pancakes. Most of my adult life is all about journeying through the amazing world of car enthusiasts. I have been organizing car shows since 1987 which honed my interest in car clubs, judging competitions and simply producing exciting motoring events for car lovers. I am currently the Club Secretary of the Manila Sports Car Club, a position I have held since 1995. I am into historic car racing, automobilia, photographing cars, road trips , and all these enjoyable experiences I try to share with fellow car enthusiasts over food and drinks. Follow me on this fascinating journey through Cars & Chow with shared stories, insights, events and a whole lot more.
