Lives in: London
From: Italy
Travel Style: Romantic, Comminuty, Luxury
Expert in: Cross-Cultural Perspective and Authentic Hospitality

Based in London, Marco and his husband, Locky, represent a unique cultural intersection: the refined, historic sensibilities of an Italian and the adventurous, laid-back spirit of an Australian. This duality defines their travel philosophy, where they seek out destinations that offer both authentic soul and high-end comfort. For them, travel is about the joy of discovery (and the fun of sharing it with a global community). By blending their distinct backgrounds, they offer a “balanced perspective” on hospitality, evaluating a hotel’s warmth as much as its aesthetic precision.

Their content acts as a bridge for a mature, international audience that values authenticity over filters. Whether they are exploring the Mediterranean or navigating a new metropolis, they focus on the “lived-in” luxury that makes a trip memorable.

Within the Passport Holder community, they serve as the ultimate well-traveled peers who prove that the best journeys are those where different worlds collide. They bring a grounded, trustworthy voice to every recommendation, ensuring their followers find the perfect balance between sophisticated stays and genuine human connection.

Andaz London Liverpool Street - a Concept by Hyatt

Modern Comfort and Effortless Inclusivity at Andaz
"The Andaz offers a brilliant mix of modern comfort and distinct local character, featuring a stylish design that never feels over the top. Little touches like the complimentary drinks and sweets make the stay feel deeply personal. The staff are genuinely welcoming and attentive, and the location serves as a perfect retreat while still being an ideal launchpad for exploring the city."
"As gay travelers, we felt completely comfortable and warmly welcomed at the Andaz. The staff are warm and inclusive without making it a big deal, which is exactly what you want when you are away from home. It never felt awkward holding hands or just being ourselves around the property, thanks to a stylish but relaxed atmosphere that is perfect for the community."
