Hi, I'm Liz. I spent the last five years in Manchester, England and now I'm upping sticks and traveling round the US and Mexico, with no great plan other than to see a new part of the world.

I love playing music. I'm a guitarist and singer, and I write and record under the name 50 Ft Queenie (after the PJ Harvey song). I want to play as much as possible whilst I'm traveling and expand my playing a bit, or just learn about some new kinds of music. If you're a musician, let's play! Or tell me about your favourite local bands/live music nights.

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

I'm open to meeting new people, sharing stories, hearing new view points. I'm happy to earn my keep by cooking lovely food (mostly vegetarian, but not strict), singing you a few songs, etc., etc.

I'd love to get a local's take on the areas I'm staying in.

Ensine, Aprenda, Compartilhe

I can teach you how to play guitar. Also super good at Adobe Photoshop, and Premiere and happy to share those skills.

Happy to help anyone learning English as a foreign language. I also have wealth of slang words and idioms from the North of England ;)

O Que Posso Compartilhar com Anfitriões

I love to cook so I'd be down for cooking together.
I really enjoy playing music with other people if that's your thing.
