I’m Martijn, 35 years old and currently staying in Bordeaux for the upcoming week. Traveling, music festivals, wine and winemaking are the great loves of my life. Traveled a lot around SE Asia, the Caribbean and Australia. I’ve just been to Boom festival in Portugal and currently visiting Bordeaux because I used to study here 10 years ago and absolutely love this place. Back home I’m a research engineer at a tech startup but always eager to find the next adventure abroad 😊

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It’s always fun and easy to get to know a place when you hang around with locals. Also love to help out fellow travelers if they need a place to stay.
