About Me

Hi! I'm Marco I'm raised in the south of the Netherlands, but currently living in Wageningen ( in the centre of the Netherlands). I'm an open, friendly and easy to talk person. I travel a lot around the world for long business trips. During weekends or some days after business I try to relax and see the real country. I hope to find a couch to have an easy stay for some days and if possible a host/local that can show me some beautiful places or give me some tips where to go to.

I can host someone in the Netherlands when I'm back. I actually live at two places in the Netherlands, so the place of the ' couch ' depends. Russian speaking would be cool as I need to practice it more.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

This platform brings me to true people of a country. Locals can share information and thoughts about the country they live in and this is necessary for travellers to have a good understanding of the place they have been.

It's always cool to have a relative in each country you have been and try to stay in contact with them.

Vice Versa, giving the same experience to other surfers.

What I Can Share with Hosts
