Author & Photographer, Michael C. Higgins, PhD, lives in Pasadena, California.BA Commercial Art, MBA and PhD, Business Administration20+ years as the Publisher of Flying Adventures magazine (a lifestyle travel magazine for people who own and travel on private airplanes, and of whom are food & wine connoisseurs), has led me to the most amazing wine experiences. I have been fortunate to taste some of the best wines ever produced, have enjoyed dinners and detailed discussions with very famous winemakers and vintners in their homes, wineries, and at special wine events and auctions. I have made wine with them, made my own wine, have participated in blind tastings, food & wine pairings with celebrity chefs… and I have worked in the vineyards, pruned the vines, picked grapes (eating as I go of course), all of which reach the point that I know so much about wine that I know I know very little. So what do I really know? I know I love wine, and I love travel! I know enough to know where to look, what to look for, what questions to ask, how to understand complex answers, and I have developed a palate to experience wine, and food, in an extraordinary way! I am traveling the world Exploring Wine Regions, finding interesting and unusual wine experiences, an insiders concierge to share special and hard-to-find gems and travel experiences with my readers.
