Hi, my name is Daniel. I’m currently working as a Guest Teacher for Chicago Public Schools, teaching students from Pre-K through 12th grade across a variety of subjects.
I’ve been living in Chicago since February, staying in different hostels while I search for more permanent housing. I hope to move into a long-term place by August or September.
Before moving to Chicago, I lived in the UK while pursuing my Master’s degree in Applied Linguistics. Unfortunately, I haven’t had much luck finding stable housing in Chicago during this time.
If anyone is open to letting me crash on their couch temporarily, I’d be more than happy to help out with cleaning or any other tasks you might need. Also, looking for new friends in this city.
Thank you in advance. I truly appreciate any support!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I’ve been to some of the world’s ancient sites

Teach, Learn, Share

Language exchange in Spanish. Looking out for your pets and plants. General help and being good company.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I’m clean, quiet, responsible, and respectful of people’s space and time. I’m happy to help with household chores (cleaning, dishes, taking out the trash, etc.). I’m looking to stay up most of a week.
