Hey, it's Mark Wiens from Migrationology.com. If you're interested in more, I will be sending you current travel and food updates, just sign up here: migrationology.com/migrationo...
While most of the time you probably see me eating food, I've been receiving a lot of questions lately asking me who exactly I am, how I started traveling, why I love eating so much, and how I earn a living. So in this video I'm going to quickly explain how and where I grew up.
I was born in Phoenix, Arizona, in the USA in 1986. My mother is from Hawaii, and she's Chinese, so I'm half Chinese. Visiting Hawaii, where food is a huge part of the culture, is where I first became so obsessed with all things food. My grandfather was a Chinese chef, so food has been a big part of my family.
My parents are Christian missionaries, so when I was 5 years old, we moved to France for a year. I attended my first year of school in France. We then moved to DR Congo, which was then known as Zaire. We lived in the middle of the jungle and as a kid I would run around exploring and eating interesting and rather bizarre jungle creatures. Due to war in Zaire, we moved to Nairobi, Kenya, where I attended a Christian international school for 8 years until graduating from high school. After high school I went back to Arizona and attended Arizona State University for 4 years, graduating with a degree in global studies.
After graduating, I didn't want to just get a job, so I started traveling again. I traveled in South America and then went to Asia where I finally got a job teaching English for a year. During that year though, I decided not to ever teach again but to do everything I could to make it as a freelancer on the internet and be able to have freedom to travel (and eat). It was in Thailand that I met my girlfriend, who is now my wife, so I am married!
This brings us up to now. For a living I do a combination of selling my own ebooks, freelance writing, making videos, and all sorts of other random projects like SEO and social media marketing.
Thank you very much for watching this life sketch video and if you have any questions for me, be sure to let me know in the comments below. You can also ask me on Facebook here: / migrationology
New VIDEO: A quick overview of life and how I started traveling (and why I love food)!
Doing a great job mark
Love u and your travels
Mark, just wanna give u a big thumbs up with ur vlogs.. Strangely I've only discovered ur channel about a week ago but now I look at em any chance I get.. I like to say, some people 'shoot from the hips', I consider u 'shoot from your heart'... Wondering if u have plans on travel/food trips to places like Scandinavia, Eastern Europe where we don't usually get to see the cuisine there... Take care and much love to ur work, wife & Micah :-)
@MarkWiens I am from India. And one of my dreams is to travel with you to any country and have food with you... I just want to take food experience with you. And btw I am foodie too...
i salute you mark wiens..by the I'm from Philippines.
Hello Mark, I am a support worker in Australia... One of my clients Andrew watches all of your videos, and really enjoys all the places, food and cultures you travel to and share. Andrew, aged 39 has down syndrome and has travelled to some countries that you have. He says "Thank you Mark"
I cant wait to see you on an episode of "The hot ones".
he defenitely should do that!! :D
If there was a “Hot Ones” competition, NO ONE could compete with Mark!
I love the way you act when you eat. When I feel hungry I just watch you and the food, and it makes me full. I am from Az
I love seafood and especially oysters!
Hello Mark! Julia here from Canada. My family is from Newfoundland and I'd love to see you visit there. THE BEST lobster I've had in the world and interesting things like seal, moose, turr etc. Icebergs and Whales are great during the early summer. The people are the nicest in the world! Thank you for sharing your adventures with us. It really helped me during the pandemic. xo
Glad to hear that your parents are missionaries. You are a super nice person. I am an Indian born and brought up in Kerala.
You have to have the right upbringing to live the life Mark has. Being christian missionaries, his parents took him all over the world and let him be free. Playing in the jungle, with animals and many different people. He was properly socialized, that leads to strong confidence in himself and no sense of restrictions and limitations as his life was so free. For him to decide to quit his job as a teacher and travel the world eating food for a living is nice to think of but to actually accomplish it is for a certain type of person. Confident, no fear, strong self esteem and perception of self and truly not caring what others think. You must have all those things to do what he does, not just one or two but all.
My Name is Kaz . Im from SA Johannesburg with my 3 kids . Love all curries , chinese , seafood , crayfish prawns etc .. and love watching you LOL :)
👋 Hi Mark my name is Cesar I’m from Honduras and my wife and I love your videos!!! been watching for years! We love Mexican food and good pizza
Beautiful Mark. I Loved the deeper insight of who you are and where you came from.
Your young life as a nomadic Christian missionary raising is so monumental in your upbringing- God bless your parents for rearing you up in the body of Christ- I see why you appear so genuinely kind on camera. A reflection of your inner being and the love of God who resides within you. Praise God for a wonderful back story of your life and truly inspiring.
Keep up the good work and remain in Christ, always.
God bless you brother
But...I wonder if you ARE a Christian, practicing or otherwise? Not that it would matter to me one whit whether you were a holy roller or just a guy who enjoyed a good bite of exotic food? You could be pagan and a Muslim and it wouldn't bother me in the slightest.
@@chrisjuricichxl5 do you believe in Jesus Christ as the One true living God- that His death and resurrection happened- that the blood of Jesus atoned for your sin and the sins of the world- that whosoever believes in Jesus will be saved- is Jesus your Saviour?
@@followthepinkline Keep your religious beliefs out of these videos please. Inappropriate. Seriously.
Amen... Wonderful.. I agree with you brother in Christ
Well, am from the Philippines, FilAm, if you will. Retired as a university nursing professor for good after living almost 4 decades in the US, mostly in San Antonio, Tx and NY, in Pampanga where your Lechon pig blog was taken. Your blogs definitely captivate.

After hearing about the food you used to eat in the jungle, I can now see how and why you can eat almost anything that is prepped and cooked for you.
