About Daniel Colombo

When a topic of interest grabs my attention, it grabs on tight. Starting with a few quick google searches, before you know it I've gone deep down the rabbit hole and am reading up on the history of viticulture in 1600's Georgia. I thrive off soaking up these bits and pieces of information because of a constant desire to see the world from an outsiders perspective. Everyone's got something to offer.I've tended to vineyards, hosted a tree planting festival, cycled solo around Madagascar, and managed a fleet of bicycles in the Netherlands.What's next?Wine. We're going to change what it means to drink it. We're going to celebrate and rewrite the history. We're probably going to piss off the french. We're going to make it fun.@naughtywaterza
