Julia Timakhovich stumbled upon my blog and decided to partake in her own New Zealand adventure. Follow her adventures at http://vinocents.com/.
ABOUT JULIA:
Hi, Julia here. I am a wine lover, writer, former cube dweller, current vintage worker, and many other things at once. I’m restless for wine-related adventures and anything that involves travel.
In 2009, I left a long-term stint in cubicle land to work in the wine industry full-time. Since then, I’ve worked in two wine stores as a sales/marketing persona, manager and wine buyer. Then I went to Oregon and got intrigued with working the wine harvest. With a little bit of luck and a lot of effort, I got a gig to work the crush in New Zealand. I’m currently working as Vintage Cellar Hand at Drylands Winery in Marlborough.
My philosophy on life is that it should be an adventure. It’s just too boring without risks and stimulation. Wine, food and travel let me explore and learn about people, cultures and the world through very physical sensations, and I don’t want it to stop, ever.
Cheers.
I WAS BORN WITH A SUITCASE IN MY HAND: ADVENTURES AROUND THE WORLD Becky Rochester would gladly live out of a suitcase if it meant she could see the world, and that is what she did and continues to do today. She has lived in WI, IL, PA, CA, OR, New Zealand and Australia. Working in different wineries and vineyards and now a brewery, she lives life to the fullest. Sometimes following her heart instead of her head put her in some difficult situations, but she wouldn't change a thing.
