Hi, I’m Marlon!

Curious about cultures, passionate about people, and always open to genuine connections. 🌍 I believe the best way to experience a place is through everyday life — and many guests say staying here feels more like visiting a friend than being hosted.

I enjoy connections that feel natural, light, and unforced. For me, good conversations are just as important as good places.

Note: During the week I work and have my routine, and on some weekends I spend time with my son, so I appreciate guests who are independent and comfortable exploring on their own. When I’m free, I genuinely enjoy accompanying my guests and sharing a bit of local life.

Respect, kindness, and good communication matter a lot to me. My home is a calm, smoke-free and drug-free space. Social drinking is welcome 🍻

If you’re curious about experiencing the Amazon through local eyes — and connecting beyond the surface — you’ll probably feel at home here.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I use Couchsurfing to experience places beyond the tourist layer.

I enjoy meaningful exchanges — sharing stories, perspectives, and small everyday moments that don’t appear in guidebooks.

The best part of traveling, for me, is the people you meet along the way.
