When I decided to become a Wine Guide, I was a brand new mom. Traveling Vineyard was an opportunity for me to meet new people, make some extra money, and learn more about wine. Two years later, I have found that it has been one of the best decisions I have ever made! I’ve become part of such a wonderful community and have made so many amazing friendships. I can’t wait to see what the next two years bring.

Traveling Vineyard has helped me grow both personally and professionally over the past 9 years! Before I started as a Wine Guide I absolutely hated getting in front of a group and talking. Now I actually enjoy it! I have also met so many amazing friends through my wine tasting events as well as other wine guides! I have never stayed with any “job” for as long as I have been with the Traveling Vineyard too! It’s been an amazing 9 years and I’m looking forward to many more! Cheers!

I’m celebrating 9 years with Traveling Vineyard! NINE YEARS!! I haven’t stayed with any company that long since I retired from the Army in 2002! It’s been such a wonderful journey full of twists and turns, but mostly lots of FUN people who I now count as my wine friends. I’ve learned SO much about wine and the wine business, and I’ve even gained a full-time job in the wine industry thanks to my start with Traveling Vineyard. It’s been great to see how much we’ve changed over the last 9 years. I can’t wait to see how we’ll grow in the future…..and I plan to be part of it!

I have really enjoyed these passed two years with Traveling Vineyard. I have learned so much about wine and how the right food pairings make all the difference in the experience. I can't wait for what this year brings!

When I started researching what I could do to supplement my retirement back in 2019, I had no idea of the journey I was about to begin. Keep in mind as I tell this story that I thought retirement was 9 years away when I first began. After my first year, I found a new dream: retirement by age 55! 2020 brought a lot of not so good things, but it also brought me that dream. 2021 was an even more difficult life for me personally and at the beginning of 2022, I determined that I would retire and start chasing my joy again. If it weren't for the fun and fulfillment the Wine Guide Life has given me, I wouldn't have been brave enough to do that. However, I am retired now as of April 1, 2022! I'm looking forward to this next chapter of my life where I continue the fun I have in building my circle of friends (that's really what my customers become!). With the flexibility of this business, I continue to grow and reach new levels of fulfilment I never thought possible. Let's not forget that there is financial reward to help supplement my retirement. I'm so blessed to have found this opportunity and to have the support of the rest of the Wine Guide Family, from the crew at headquarters to the other Wine Guides throughout the country. Best decision I've made, possibly in my entire life. Cheers to the years ahead!

Celebrating my first anniversary with the Traveling Vineyard was amazing. I’ve had so much FUN increasing my wine knowledge and sharing with others. I’ve made great FRIENDSHIPS along the way. I love the FLEXIBILITY of scheduling tastings either in-person or virtually that fit my schedule. The FINANCIAL reward has funded my travel adventures. I’ve never felt more FULFILLED in a business as I do in being a Wine Guide. I can’t wait to celebrate many more anniversaries with the Traveling Vineyard!!!
