CURRENT MISSION

To travel and meet people before returning to school

ABOUT ME

My name is Mark Johnson and I love traveling and meeting new people. I have only used this account traveling in the USA but I'm about to begin another trip in Europe and hopefully go around the world. I hope to use this site more during my trip to meet local people and learn about their cities.

For the last five years I have been working as a EMT (emergency medical technician) both as a fire fighter and working on a ambulance. I recently just quit my jobs so I can go on the trip and see how long I can go.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I attended the 21st World Scout Jamboree in London 2007, I was in a campsite with over 40,000 different boys, girls, and adult leaders from all over the world. I learned about different cultures and made friends with people all over the world. It was amazing and I think it was because of this that I am interested to go Couchsurfing and meeting new people
