__________________________________________________________________________________________

"Hello everyone, my name is Elliot Harris I am 22 and from the United Kingdom, the nation who seems to bomb every year at Eurovison.

Outside of Eurovison you can find me either dancing for which I have done ten years now, watching football or tennis or sat writing something of some sort. These are my main hobbies and passions in life 

Azerbaijan won the 2011 Eurovision Song Contest

I have always loved music and this is partly why I love Eurovison. I love the diversity and different influences of music, from the pop fun of Scandinavia to the ethnic Arabian style you hear from the likes of Turkey and Azerbaijan, it's a beautiful blend. I also love the element of competition and how that has grown in recent years.

My favourite contest to date is still the 2011 edition in Düsseldorf, Germany. I loved so much about it. The r stage in the round was different and nice, the presenter were amusing, but not forced and the music was brilliant. So many good songs made choosing a winner nigh on impossible for me. All in all a well produced and executed show by Germany. 

My favourite European singer has to be Mr Danny Saucedo. Although there are many other talented singers Danny has always stood out to me with his music and performance abilities. I first heard him in Melfest 2012 and since then Ioved the versatility in his voice and music, being able to perform mainstream pop hits to ballads with the same high level. Plus I love his dancing, he makes it all seem so effortless and fluid. In a nutshell I'm captivated by him when he performs and it’s a shame he has not yet represented Sweden at Eurovison.

Well that's me I look forward to writing here on The Euro Trip and hearing all your thoughts!"
