Description

Hello, I'm Elizabeth! I am a music teacher looking to spend this next year working developing my Spanish language skills before grad school. I am a friendly, enthusiastic individual who loves to meet people, experience new challenges, foods and cultures.

I have a passion for the arts and have experience teaching all band instruments, voice, dance and music composition. As a percussionist I am very interested in learning about music cultures around the world. I love connecting with people through music whether it be an exchange with experienced musicians or teaching beginners.

I am open to all types of experiences and cannot wait to be a volunteer at different host sites and connect with other travellers.
