About me

Blogging:
My blog profiles people over 50 who have positive attitudes about aging, and love to travel. My specialty is wine and food travel.

Content Creation:
I am an experienced travel writer with a certificate in Journalism, seeking regular travel, food and wine writing. A while back I created content for Quench and Canadian Traveller, among other publications. For Quench, I wrote about wine, spirits, and food. My most recent article was for Wandering with Wonder about women winemakers in Austria. I also wrote an article on pairing wine and cupcakes. I have the Level 2 Wine and Spirit Education Trust (WSET) certification and worked at the LCBO.

  • Thanks for this question Kateryna. I reentered the travel writing sphere in 2023, after a ten-year absence, to find that you have to have a website and an online presence to be successful. In 2013, this wasn’t essential. Passion - After retirement las... show more
