Hola! Is this thing on?

Just a quick note to see if my WFP blog will update, as I know the site’s been going through some upgrades, etc.

If you’re interested in seeing some of what I’ve seen in Chile, check out the pictures here and here. I’ve also done a couple of quick video blogs here - when I get back I’ll do my best to integrate them into the WFP blog site.

This has been an extremely long trip - normally these types of junkets are 7-10 days tops - and while it’s been absolutely fantastic, I’m very much looking forward to getting home. I’m also looking forward to eating dinner before 9:00 p.m., and ensuring that it’s under about 6,000 calories.

About Ben MacPhee-Sigurdson

When he wasn't bashing on a drum kit in local punk rock bands, Ben spent the mid '90s hucking cases of wine around to pay for two English degrees. Now he's the Winnipeg Free Press wine columnist and blogger.

The extent of Ben's wine experience in the mid-90s was memories of accidentally leaving a bottle of White Zinfandel in the freezer overnight, and the ensuing mess he was left with. Between 1996 and 2005 Ben absorbed all he could about wine while working at wine shops to pay for school. Meanwhile, he was churning out papers for his BA and MA in English (from the Universities of Winnipeg and Manitoba, respectively).

Ben became the Winnipeg Free Press' weekly wine columnist in 2005, and two years later joined Wine Access magazine as a contributor, a member of their national tasting panel and a judge at the Canadian Wine Awards and International Value Wine Awards until the magazine closed up shop in 2013.

In 2013 Ben joined the Winnipeg Free Press as a copy/web editor.
