Hey! My name is Elizabeth, but you can call me Liz. I'm from Philadelphia but I've lived in Ohio and Virginia for a few years at a time. I spend as much time as I can at the beach and try to get out for a hike whenever I can. My favorite TV shows are Game of Thrones, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, and the Office. If you need any music or movie suggestions I can always give a good recommendation, too. I love learning new things and I like a good conversation.
