About Us
Every writer has a story, every artist has an art, and every wine has a story behind it including the rich flavors, the way it was made
Hello All,
I appreciate that you are taking the time to look at my website and learn more about us. So here is a little summary of my journey.
First, let me introduce myself, my name is Susan Hendrix. I live in Texas and work as an independent insurance agent. I specialize in long term care planning. Insurance is my livelihood and I enjoy it.
A few years ago, I decided that I wanted to travel more since I want to see so many places, both in the US and abroad. My parents were in declining health so it was not feasible for me to travel at that time.
Fast forward to the last quarter of 2018, I was speaking with a good friend about wanting to travel more. He suggested that I should travel but do something else when I visit a new place and then write and post about it. He asked me to think of something I could combine with my travel that would entice people to read my words. I immediately decided that I would travel and taste wines. And voila, the idea for Traveling Wine Taster was born!
I began my travel and wine journey in January 2019 with a trip to New Orleans. It was the perfect place to embark on my adventure. I love New Orleans and I feel at home since I have visited there many times.
And, true to my word, I traveled every month from January 2019 through February 2020 when COVID-19 brought my travel to an abrupt halt.
One of my goals for 2020 prior to COVID, was to travel alone overseas. I wanted to travel to France or Great Britain or Italy or Germany to work for a few weeks in a winery and learn all I can about their wines. But, I haven’t had that opportunity just yet. I feel certain that I will get to travel to one of those countries and beyond in the years ahead. Until then, I continue to work in my insurance business while I also dream about those future wine trips.
Stay tuned to keep up to date with my travels and the wines I like while I plan for the future.
Also, be sure to email me at susan@travelingwinetaster.com if there is something you’d like me to write about or if there is certain information that you want to see on my site. I am here for all of you.
I will end with one of my favorite sayings, “Life is Too Short to Drink Bad Wine!” So, follow my adventures as I taste many wines and give you my honest feedback on what I like or dislike about them!
Cheers to You,
Susan
