About Me
In 2006 and 2007 I was able to achieve a 10 year long goal and plan of traveling around the world. Due to a growing interest in wine and being a part of the wine industry, the trip was tailored to visiting wine regions all over the planet. It was a great experience and really gave me direction as I now continue my goal of being a winemaker.
I now plan on using the site to document my initiation into the wine industry, my future travels and other parts of life that interest me. I grew up in the Pacific Northwest and moved to Portland, Oregon at age 16. I enjoy all art: visual, culinary, wine, literature and music. I am currently enrolled at the NW Viticulture Center in Salem, Oregon and will hopefully be a winemaker soon.

Hi Brianne! Hadn’t checked out your whereabouts in quite some time! Back in PDX, but not for long, eh? Your new adventure sounds very exciting for you - what an opportunity! Best wishes to you!

Hello from long, long ago. Don’t know if you remember me. Just wanted to let you know I enjoy your words & work. It’s good to happen upon a resource to aid in mentally resurfacing from the depths of the daily everything, where it’s just too still.
