I'm Marco, 28, born and raised in Italy, lived in Berlin, Germany most of my adult life. Graduated in business, worked for corporate for several years. Eventually ran out of patience to serve white men in ties, so I attempted a career as a drag queen, which however - as fun and wild as it was - didn’t leave me wanting for more. I recently embarked on a journey around the world which was the most refreshing thing I have ever done. Currently trying to set the foundation to work in the tourism industry for the upcoming years.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Sharing moments with locals when travelling and experiencing the beauty of every country through their eyes.

Interests

Reading, learning languages, geography, politics, music, fine eating, street food, cooking, interior design, architecture

Music, Movies, and Books

Quite interested in pop culture, techno and indie/rock bands from Northern Europe. Love folk music from pretty much every country.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Quit my job and started travelling around the world. Within 12 months I visited most of the South American countries, India, parts of Central Asia, the Caucasus as well as parts of the Arabic peninsula.

Teach, Learn, Share

I’m fluent in 7 languages and happy to share whatever knowledge I can. I am also a decent cook (Italian, duh).

What I Can Share with Hosts

Great energy, interesting discussions about politics, society and human rights, good food and great lip sync performances of queer classics 🌈
