Hello there!

My name is Markus, but you can call me Marky!

I'm a digital nomad who enjoys traveling the world, discovering new things (mostly food and unique places), and meeting people from all backgrounds. I always try to learn about the culture and languages of the places I'm visiting because I feel as a guest it is important to be respectful to the people who have been kind enough to open their doors and hearts for me.

One of the best ways of doing this is through CouchSurfing, WorkAway, and other similar sites that build bridges across borders.

I really hope I'll be able to meet you, share a little of my culture and learn some of yours, and despite me not drinking alcohol I'm down to do whatever! Just hit me up!

I also do YouTube @MarkyMoves so you can see that I’m real and not AI or a park squirrel! 🐿️

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

It's an amazing way to interact with locals and learn about the places I go. When I was young I would just go to places and do similar things like chilling at the beach and out eating the same stuff, but since I started solo traveling in 2016 I realized there are so many amazing things hidden everywhere that sometimes even the most attentive eyes cannot catch. That's why having a local to share those moments with is ideal and in return I can do my best to make their life a little more colorful!

音乐、电影和书籍

I love funk, jazz, psychedelic rock & indie!
Psychological thrillers and horror movies!
I'm gonna be honest.. I don't read as much as I should, but right now I'm reading a lot about Buddhism since I just finished ordaining as a monk in Ratchaburi! If you’re into spiritualism or Buddhism I’d love to have a meaningful conversation!
