Description
Hola!
I'm Reuben from New Zealand.
I enjoy slow travel and immersing myself in other cultures, sharing knowledge and ideas and connecting with people. I am a hard worker and have a good attitude and excellent work ethic and love learning new skills.
I have been working as a builder and in joinery in NZ for the last 5 years.
Prior to this I studied a Bachelor in Jazz guitar - I love guitar and playing music!
I have also studied Industrial Design.
I recently completed a TEFL course in teaching English so am looking forward to any opportunities that might involve teaching English.
I can speak quite a bit of Spanish thanks to a backpacking trip around South America about 9 years ago and thanks to my former Argentinian Girlfriend who was patient enough to teach me.
I would love help to continue improving my Spanish. I especially enjoy being in environments where English isn't an option.
I have taught guitar both one on one and to groups so am very happy to teach guitar or partake in a jam.
I have also worked a little in Hospitality and have helped my parents garden on various projects ( They are both landscape gardeners )
I would love to hear from you.
Hope I can be of help!
Thanks,
ReubenInterests
