An Insight To My Roots

I was born at Park Royal Hospital in north west London, England and my parents were too born in the UK. Which brings my racial descent back to my grandparents, with my fathers parents being born and raised in Jamaica, Kingston and my mothers parents being born and raised in India, Mumbai. However it gets a little more confusing as both my mothers parents are what you would call Anglo-Indian, meaning that one of their parents were of a English background and the other, an Indian background. Both of my grandparents' were brought up in a Catholic household, later changing to Christian-protestants which has carried on throughout my families generations.

My entire family has always been a close group, with both halves mixing with one another making my family unit overall a very large one. Food has always played a big part in my family life, as it was and still is a tradition to go to my grandparents house for breakfast, lunch and dinner with all members on a Sunday. However I used to spend the majority of these Sunday's at my fathers parents house as there are many more family memebers of cousins, aunts and uncles on that side compared to my mothers. However when my fathers parents moved back to Jamaica my Sunday's have been spent at my mothers parents house and on other days we will occasionally go to my cousins' houses.
