montseng_tastebuds_about_lerato

More about Lerato

I am a proud South African who was born and bred in Soweto in the Gauteng Province, in a residential area known as Pimville. After living and working in the United States and London for several years, I finally settled in the Western Cape where I have been residing and working for well over a decade.

I have had the opportunity to meet people from diverse cultural and social backgrounds, with different experiences, whom I have been blessed to learn from, and who contributed towards my personal, as well as professional growth. I am a firm believer that when we stop learning, we cease to grow.

I have gained a wealth of knowledge and acquired transferable skills through hard work, travel, and exposure to multiple sectors. My nature of always being committed to what I get tasked with, continues to afford me opportunities to serve in different character building environments and do meaningful work that positively impact the lives of others.

My professional experience was acquired in different sectors, however,  working in fine dining restaurants, hotels and self-catering accommodation for international tourists, tour guiding and the Food and Beverage industries, provided me with the experience needed to steer the Montseng TasteBuds and Hospitality ship and grow my passion for providing service, especially in the tourism space, which is considered to be the lifeblood of the Western Cape region.
