Cara Maria was one of the stars of The Challenge. Of the fourteen seasons in which she participated, she made it to seven finals and won in two opportunities, getting a good amount of money and making a name for herself as a TV personality. However, she decided to step aside for the last season, The Challenge: Total Madness, so far.
Even if she's no longer a participant, her social media presence is enough to keep fans up to date on her everyday life. In this article, readers will find everything they need to know about Cara Maria's ten best Instagram posts.
10 Laughing Under The Rainbow
These pictures make for a beautiful and sweet sequence, with the most amazing view as a treat. In this post, Cara commented on the beauty of Montana's nature, particularly the sky. "Montana has no shortage of sky and rainbows but I added this one to the photo to get your attention..." she said in the post.
She then talked about gay marriage and the setbacks LGBT couples face. "Love is love. Actively voice support for those in the LGBTQ community and always speak out against hatred. One day at a time."
9 Leg Tattoo
Cara knows how to pose casually better than most people, and this post is proof of that. Based on the hashtags, it's clear that she feels proud of her legs, as she should. She obviously put a lot of effort into working out her leg muscles and she wants to show the world her achievement.
In the post, followers can also appreciate her leg tattoo, which is noticeable but still very tasteful and delicate. Lastly, the black and white effect gives the picture the finishing touch. It seems that Cara was having fun that day and loves the picture, so she wanted to share it.
8 Montana
This stunning post shows Cara in the middle of a lake in Montana. The first picture was probably taken without her knowing, and the second one is her posing for the camera. She looks amazing in both pictures, but just the view would be enough to get the post into the top ten.
Her description talks about her love for that place and her appreciation for the nature she's surrounded by. She also jokes by apologizing to Montana for complaining about the cold.
7 Pride Month
It's apparent that Cara loves nature, and it inspires her to reflect on life and love. In these pictures, her followers can see how comfortable she feels walking around the forest and posing next to the trees. She's in her element.
But she's not just having a good time. In honor of pride month, Cara posted about different things the LGBT community had to struggle with throughout history and how things have changed. She finishes with this beautiful message: "Be kind to one another. You startin to see the rainbow yet? Keep your eye out."
6 A Girl's Best Friend
This post is just too wholesome not to include it in the top ten. A few months ago, Cara posted these pictures of her mare, sharing her unconditional love for her.
"Got her when I was 14 after 5 years of riding lessons, stall cleanings, and reading every bit of horse information I could get my hands on. She is 30 years old with arthritis and a chronic cellulitic leg.....and I’ve been being told for half her life that she should be put down for one reason or another. But not this Lion. I only listen to her."
5 Warrior Painting
So it turns out Cara is an amazingly talented artist. This post shows the painting of a warrior and, judging by the description, Cara painted it. It's not only the painting that it's impressive, though. The way she's posing next to it makes for the perfect picture.
There's no way of knowing if she tried to make some sort of self-portrait, but the idea of capturing the two profiles is brilliant. Judging by the comments, her followers were impressed by her skills, so whatever Cara tried to do, it was a great job.
4 Birthday Post
During what seems to be a little holiday she took, Cara documented her last day of 33. She looks very comfortable and happy, and her fans all celebrated seeing her healthy and having a good time. The stunning landscape is a bonus.
"This time off has been much needed cuz your girl is radiating happy again," she shared.
Another thing worth mentioning: she designed the sports bra she's wearing! There's a tag for followers to go get it if they want.
3 "Ghost With The Most"
These pictures might be a bit morbid, but they are also awesome, especially when you read that Cara did this herself in only 20 minutes in the morning. It looks too complicated to be done so quickly, but she explains the ingredients she used and how she did it.
Nobody knows what brought this Beetlejuice on, but it's so original and surprising it deserved to be among the best posts. The most fun part of it all? Point 6: "My hair? Woke up like that."
2 "Me" Time
During these uncertain times, this post seemed appropriate to be among the ten best. Cara took this picture while she was on lockdown, and it shares some valuable insight on how to not lose your mind in quarantine.
It's important to take a break, relax, and take care of yourself, and this is what Cara recommends: "Sunday is a day to pamper yourself so start a bubble bath, throw on a face mask, light them candles, and grab a good book." That seems like good advice.
1 Adventure
These three gorgeous pictures seemed like the best way to wrap up the best posts. Cara posted these when she was "Starting a lil rainbow theme for a bit of Pride love." The photos are so peaceful and beautiful, and the girls look so happy and relaxed. There was no way they weren't going to be among the best posts.
"Just a happy moment in a little unexpected adventure with a friend," said Cara in the post, leaving a string of hearts of different colors in honor of Pride Month.
