The Flamingo at my Door! Homage To South Florida!

Where the warmth of the vibrant South Florida Sun ignites your soul

A crayon box of shades and colors everywhere you turn

Beautiful and diverse faces are woven into the fabric of each day

Arriving from all corners of the globe with hungry hearts and many dreams

With energetic and lively accents, giving life to our distinct songs

Like Flamingos coming and going but always calling South Florida home!

Soflo is a bouquet of wonderful and exciting individuals

Most were transplanted from very far or very near

A flavorful pot of different spices and experiences

With a unique recipe of courage and resilience

Mixed to perfection, bringing out the unique textures of each nation

Savouring each bite, filled with pride and appreciation.

In Soflo, new exotic lands are right outside your door

Hialeah, Little Haiti, Little Habana, Sweet Water, and more

No need for a passport to get to these unique and exciting places

Where you can quench your thirst for far-away flavors and exotic faces

Our language is universal when we are talking about food:

Arepas, Pizza, Sancocho, Gallo Pinto, Curry, and Fried Rice,

Ackee and Saltfish, Chicharrones, Tapas, Empanadas, Burritos, and Naan,

Congris, Ropa Vieja, Tostones, Pupusas, and much more

An abundance of delectable and rich choices to call our very own.

If you are new to Soflo, don't be intimated by our affectionate nature

A warm and welcoming community with a million stories to share

With the colors of our different flags intertwined within ourselves,

Creating a magical tapestry of unity and acceptance,

Reminding us of the beauty and strength we share as human beings.

Some of us are loud, talk fast, and have thick accents

Some of us are quiet and shy, but deep inside, we are all the same,

Proud and kind people who want to work hard, love, and excel!

Welcome to South Florida; we would love to see you again!
