ABOUT ME

My name is Mark Szwender and I am 26 years old. My father took me traveling since I was very young and it's how I learned to love travelling so much! I am a musician, I play guitar both acoustic and electric - just finished and released my first solo album! I am interested in meeting new people and experiencing new cultures around the world. I love to laugh, be creative and have fun! Anything else just ask and I shall tell. :)

PHILOSOPHY

I believe that success is really just the equivalent of survival.
