Hi — My name is Mark Marchand. I’m a writer, traveler, communications consultant, and adjunct professor in the Journalism Program at the University at Albany. In my spare time, I enjoy blogging /writing/reading about interesting trips and destinations. I also published my first book last year, relating my long solo drive down U.S. Route 1 from northern Maine to Key West: https://www.amazon.com/U-S-Route-Rediscovering-New-World-ebook/dp/B07D2GMP1W
