but uh, I grew up in Calgary, which is Alberta, in the city of Banff.

Todd: OK, so what was your childhood like? Were you into nature, or sports?

Mark: Childhood I was into books. I was a big reader. I used to go the the library with my mother. And the first big trip I took overseas was when I was 14.

Todd: OK, actually, on this trip where did you go?

Mark: On this trip I went to Liverpool which is where my mother is from. So I went to Liverpool that time and Wales and Scotland and five or six trips after that.
