I'm Matt! I was born and raised in Chicago and love showing off my city to guests. I from home most of the time and I'm excited to meet new people and show them around my city. I was active in couch surfing until COVID and just getting back into it now (June 2023)

If you'd like to know the neighborhood before requesting Google the Starbucks at 1900 W Montrose, Chicago. I live near there. Its not downtown but very close to the Brownline.

Also if I don't reply right away I am sorry. I have been getting a lot of requests.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have been going to Meetup groups to practice Spanish and Portuguese and have met a lot of people passing through Chicago. Some have done Couch Surfing and had great experiences so I thought I'd give it a try. Just like the Meetup groups I am hoping to meet a lot of cool and interesting people.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

A year in Spain and a few months in Brazil was pretty cool! Now that I have a grown up job I'm not sure I'll ever be able to do that again but I am looking forward to trips back to visit.
