My name's Rubén, a Spanish guy who loves travelling (specially backpacking). I also love sports like mountaneering or climbing, because is also effective for your mental health. I'm a yogi, I started practicing yoga and meditation 4 years ago and I still doing it because I love it so much.
In Madrid I work as a Spanish teacher, so I'm in contact with students around the world and I like when they tell me some anecdotes, different perspectives about life, opinions... Despite I'm a teacher, I consider I learn a lot from them and my work. And, of course, if you need some help with Spanish language, don't hesitate to ask me.
I'm learning Portuguese too. It's a language that I love too much, so you can talk me in Portuguese too, cause I'll be happy to speak with you in this language.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm here to get to know people from all over the world. While I'm traveling I like to meet local people so that they could teach me everything about the culture, lifestyle... of the places I'm visiting.
